Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an addressing manipulation system and an addressing manipulation method. The addressing manipulation system includes a control unit, a radio frequency driving unit and two addressing units. The control unit controls a frequency and polarization of an incident laser beam in real time, so that the incident laser beams meet the Raman transition condition. The radio frequency driving unit controls the number and frequencies of radio frequency driving fields applied to each addressing unit, and achieves the control of the number and angles of the emergent laser beams and a frequency difference of the emergent laser beam pair. The addressing unit receives and modulates the incident laser beam and outputs a preset number of the emergent laser beams for addressing manipulation, wherein the emergent laser beam is one laser beam of the emergent laser beam pair for addressing manipulation.

The addressing system includes a first acousto-optic processing component and a second acousto-optic processing component. The first acousto-optic processing component is used for generating a diffraction beam for an addressing operation in a preset number of dimensions.

Abstract: The invention provides systems and methods enabling high fidelity quantum communication over long communication channels even in the presence of significant loss in the channels. The invention involves laser manipulation of quantum correlated atomic ensembles using linear optic components (110, 120), optical sources of low intensity pulses (10), interferers in the form of beam splitters (150), and single-photon detectors (180, 190) requiring only moderate efficiencies. The invention provides fault-tolerant entanglement generation and connection using a sequence of steps that each provide built-in entanglement purification and that are each resilient to realistic noise levels. The invention relies upon collective rather single particle excitations in atomic ensembles and results in communication efficiency scaling polynomially with the total length of the communication channel.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for long-distance quantum communication and scalable quantum computation are disclosed. The methods and apparatus are based on probabilistic ion-photon mapping. Scalable quantum computation is achieved by forming deterministic quantum gates between remotely located trapped ions by detecting spontaneously emitted photons, accompanied by local Coulomb interaction between neighboring ions. Long-distance quantum communication and scalable quantum communication networks formed by employing a number of remote nodes that each include an ion trap and by employing probabilistic photon-mediated entanglement between the ions in each ion trap.
