One-step direct measurement of the entangled W states with cross-Kerr nonlinearity
Abstract
We propose a scheme to directly measure the entangled W states with cross-Kerr nonlinearity mediums. This scheme can measure three-photon, four-photon, and even N-photon W states in one step. Only PBSs and cross-Kerr nonlinearity mediums are used in this scheme, which is feasible for experiments. We describe the three-photon W states measurement process and extend it to four-photon and N-photon W states.
