Self-stabilized quantum optical Fredkin gate

Abstract: The quantum optical Fredkin gate is an indispensable resource for networkable quantum applications. Its performance in practical implementations, however, is limited fundamentally by the inherent quantum fluctuations of the pump waves. We demonstrate a method to overcome this drawback by exploiting stimulated Raman scattering in fiber-based implementations. Using a Sagnac fiber-loop switch as a specific example, we show that high switching contrast can be maintained even in the presence of significant pump flu… Show more

“…However, nonlinear interactions are also promising for controlled operations in photonics and have the potential to make the linear optics gates fully deterministic. These nonlinear interactions require a Kerr medium for which realizing an optical quantum Fredkin gate has been proposed [39,40]. There is also an interesting proposal for constructing an optical Fredkin gate using nanobiophotonics [41].…”

“…This dual-core fibre based switching technique has many advantages over other approaches. For instance, ultrashort pulses in rather-short dual-core fibres (DCF) can be self-switched while the nonlinear optical loop mirror requires meter-long fibres to induce sufficient nonlinear phase shift and, in the case of silica fibres, tens of nanojoule pulse energies [7]. Another example is the fibre grating coupler using chalcogenide fibres [8,9].…”
