Improving entanglement of even entangled coherent states via superposition of number-conserving operations

A scheme for improving entanglement is proposed by repeatedly performing number-conserving generalized superposition of products (GSP) operation, i.e., saa†+ta†amwith s2+t2=1,on each modes of even entangled coherent state (EECS). Both Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) correlation and concurrence are use...

description A scheme for improving entanglement is proposed by repeatedly performing number-conserving generalized superposition of products (GSP) operation, i.e., saa†+ta†amwith s2+t2=1,on each modes of even entangled coherent state (EECS). Both Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) correlation and concurrence are used as the measures for describing entanglement. It is found that both single-mode and two-mode-symmetric GSP operations can be used for the entanglement improvement. In particular, for the optimal EPR correlation, the GSP-EECS with two-mode-symmetric first-order operations presents a better performance for the entanglement improvement than the cases of high-order GSP operations. Compared to several special non-Gaussian operations, including photon subtraction-then-addition (PSTA) (s=0)and photon-addition-then-subtraction (PATS) (s=1), it is shown that the entanglement of GSP-EECS is always superior to those of both PSTA-EECS and PATS-EECS at a small amplitude level. When the GSP-EECS is used as the entangled resource for teleportation, our optimal teleportation fidelity presents the best performance.
