摘要:

强光子-光子相互作用的实现对光子学提出了持久的挑战,特别是在量子计算中,其中双光子门形成了可扩展的量子信息处理(QIP)的重要组件。虽然线性光学方案已经在空间偏振编码中启用了概率纠缠门,但许多其他有用的自由度的解决方案仍然缺失。特别是,没有用于频率编码的重要平台的双光子门已经被实验证明,这在很大程度上是由于相互作用光子的失配波长所带来的额外挑战。在这篇文章中,我们设计并实现了第一个纠缠门的频率仓量子比特,一个符合基受控非(CNOT),使用逐行脉冲整形和电光调制。我们通过一种基于贝叶斯机器学习的新参数推断方法提取了$0.91 \pm 0.01$的量子门保真度,该方法仅在双光子计算基础上从测量中实现精确的门重建。我们的CNOT赋予了由另一个光子的频率控制的单光子频移-这本身就是一种重要的能力-并且应该使光纤兼容QIP的新方向成为可能。

英文摘要:

The realization of strong photon-photon interactions has presented an enduring challenge across photonics, particularly in quantum computing, where two-photon gates form essential components for scalable quantum information processing (QIP). While linear-optic schemes have enabled probabilistic entangling gates in spatio-polarization encoding, solutions for many other useful degrees of freedom remain missing. In particular, no two-photon gate for the important platform of frequency encoding has been experimentally demonstrated, due in large part to the additional challenges imparted by the mismatched wavelengths of the interacting photons. In this article, we design and implement the first entangling gate for frequency-bin qubits, a coincidence-basis controlled-NOT (CNOT), using line-by-line pulse shaping and electro-optic modulation. We extract a quantum gate fidelity of $0.91 \pm 0.01$ via a novel parameter inference approach based on Bayesian machine learning, which enables accurate gate reconstruction from measurements in the two-photon computational basis alone. Our CNOT imparts a single-photon frequency shift controlled by the frequency of another photon---an important capability in itself---and should enable new directions in fiber-compatible QIP.
