Zero-dynamics principle for perfect quantum memory in linear networks

Abstract: In this paper, we study a general linear networked system that contains a tunable memory subsystem; that is, it is decoupled from an optical field for state transportation during the storage process, while it couples to the field during the writing or reading process. The input is given by a single photon state or a coherent state in a pulsed light field. We then completely and explicitly characterize the condition required on the pulse shape achieving the perfect state transfer from the light field to the mem… Show more

“…Such an optimal pulse depends on the system's parameters, which therefore should be identified as accurately as possible. Note that several similar architectures for quantum memory have been proposed for instance in an inhomogeneously broadened ensemble of atoms or nitrogenvacancy centers in diamond [31], [32], [33], nano-mechanical oscillators [34], or a general linear network [35], all of which are modeled by passive linear systems. We should emphasize that the passivity property is essential, as in general an active system violates the energy balance and does not realize a perfect state transfer.…”

“…In this paper, we focus on the class of passive linear quantum system [21], [22], [23], [24], which serves as a device for several applications in quantum information technology, such as entanglement generation [25], [26], [27], [28], [29], quantum memory [30], [31], [32], [33], [34], [35], and linear quantum computing [36]. Analyzing this important class of systems provides the foundation for the general case, but it has a clear interest in its own right in the context of estimation, as described later in this section.…”

“…then the single-photon state |1 ξ is able to fully excite a two-level system if β = κ, where κ is the decay rate as introduced in Example 2, see, e.g., [43,47,49,34]. The single photon with pulse shape (4) or (5) has Lorentzian lineshape function with FWHM β [1,28], which in the frequency domain is…”

“…The descriptions are based on general open linear quantum systems. They involve a broad range of classes written by bosonic annihilation and creation operators such as optical devices [1,40], mechanical oscillators [41][42][43] and atomic ensembles [26,44,45]. Although we mainly focus on the optical descriptions, the following calculations are not limited to optics.…”
