用弱测量和投影测量估计量子态

Estimation of quantum states by weak and projective measurements

Debmalya Das, Arvind

摘要:

我们探索了利用“弱”测量进行量子态层析成像的可能性。给定一个量子比特的相同准备状态的一定数量的副本,我们使用弱以及投影测量来模拟状态断层扫描。由于测量后状态的崩溃,我们不能重新使用投影测量后的状态。如果使量子系统和测量装置之间的耦合强度变弱,则可以降低对状态造成的扰动。这使我们能够重新使用集合的同一成员进行进一步的测量,从而从系统中提取更多的信息。然而,这是以从第一次测量中获得不精确的信息为代价的。我们模拟了一个量子比特的方案,并表明在某些情况下,它可以优于基于投影测量的层析成像方案。这开辟了从量子系综中提取信息的新方法的可能性。我们研究了不同耦合强度下该方案的有效性。

英文摘要:

We explore the possibility of using "weak" measurements to carry out quantum state tomography. Given a certain fixed number of copies of identically prepared states of a qubit, we simulate state tomography using weak as well as projective measurements. Due to the collapse of the state after measurement, we cannot re-use the state after a projective measurement. If the coupling strength between the quantum system and the measurement device is made weaker, the disturbance caused to the state can be lowered. This then allows us to re-use the same member of the ensemble for further measurements and thus extract more information from the system. However, this happens at the expense of getting imprecise information from the first measurement. We simulate this scheme for a single qubit and show that under certain circumstances, it can outperform the projective measurement-based tomography scheme. This opens up the possibility of new ways of extracting information from quantum ensembles. We study the efficacy of this scheme for different coupling strengths.
