Topological state transfers in cavity-magnon system

Abstract

We propose an experimentally feasible scheme for realizing quantum state transfer via the topological edge states in a one-dimensional cavity-magnon lattice. We find that the cavity-magnon system can be mapped analytically into the generalized Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with tunable cavity-magnon coupling. It can be shown that the edge state can be served as a quantum channel to realize the photonic and magnonic state transfers by adjusting the cavity-cavity coupling strength. Further, our scheme can realize the quantum state transfer between photonic state and magnonic state by changing the amplitude of the intracell hopping. With a numerical simulation, we quantitatively show that the photonic, magnonic and magnon-to-photon state transfers can be achieved with high fidelity in the cavity-magnon lattice. Spectacularly, the three different types of quantum state transfer schemes can be even transformed to each other in a controllable fashion. This system provides a novel way of realizing quantum state transfer and can be implemented in quantum computing platforms.
