Entanglement purification of distant atomic Qubits with ancillary multiphoton states — •Ludwig Kunz, József Zsolt Bernád, Mauricio Torres, and Gernot Alber — Institut für Angewandte Physik, Technische Universität Darmstadt, 64289 Darmstadt, Germany

We propose a scheme for conducting entanglement purification on distant two-level atoms. The atomic qubits are sent through a cavity one after the other and interact with a single mode of the radiation field inside the cavity. The atoms are post-selected by measuring the cavity field with the help of a balanced homodyne detection. It is demonstrated that the resulting quantum operation is a convenient basic building block for an entanglement purification protocol.
