Scheme for realizing quantum dense coding via entanglement swapping
Abstract
Quantum dense coding is a protocol for transmitting two classical bits of information from a sender (Alice) to a remote receiver (Bob) by sending only one quantum bit (qubit). In this article, we propose an experimentally feasible scheme to realize quantum dense coding via entanglement swapping in a cavity array containing a certain number of two-level atoms. Proper choice of system parameters such as atom-cavity couplings and inter-cavity couplings allows perfect transfer of information. A high fidelity transfer of information is shown to be possible by using recently achieved experimental values in the context of photonic crystal cavities and superconducting resonators. To mimic experimental imperfections, disorder in both the coupling strengths and resonance frequencies is considered.
