Quantum Superdense Coding Protocol

 

One of the most basic applications of quantum algorithms is superdense coding. It is a simple protocol, but it is also an important protocol. Now let's take a detailed look.

The setup of the protocol is as follows:

Alice wants to send 2-qubit information to Bob, but she can only send a single-qubit due to her possibilities. But how does Bob get a 2-qubit of information from Alice?

This is where Caren comes in. Caren entanglements 2 qubits through Hadamard and CNOT. It sends one of the entangled particles to Alice and the other to Bob. Alice and Bob have no information as they do not measure which particle has come to them.

From here on, Alice will be able to send the qubits she wants to Bob. Let's examine them all in turn.

  • Let Alice wants to send the 00 qubits. In this case, it will use the I gate.
  • Let Alice wants to send the 01 qubits. In this case, it will use the X gate. 

  • Let Alice wants to send the 10 qubits. In this case, it will use the Z gate.             
     
    Let Alice wants to send the 11 qubits. In this case, it will use the iY gate.
     
    As can be seen, Bob finds the qubit information sent by Alice in the measurement results with 100% probability.
     
    Let's focus on the important point above. For this protocol to work correctly, the qubits to be created must be entangled. Otherwise, if they are not entangled, Bob will get different results with different probabilities.

    The entangled states you see above are called Bell States. As I mentioned before, in order to obtain an accurate measurement result with a 100% probability of the quantum superdense coding protocol, it is necessary to start the process with one of the Bell entanglement states.

    I will write about different protocols in my future articles.

    Stay with physics. :)

Bloch Sphere – Geometric Representation of Quantum State

    It is very difficult to visualize quantum states before our eyes. The Bloch sphere represents quantum state functions quite well. The Bloch sphere is named after physicist Felix Bloch. As you can see in the Bloch sphere figure below, it geometrically shows the pure states of two-level quantum mechanical systems. The poles of the Bloch sphere consist of bits |0⟩ and |1⟩. Classically, the point on the sphere indicates either 0 or 1. However, from a quantum mechanics point of view, quantum bits contain possibilities to be found on the entire surface of the sphere. Traditionally, the z-axis represents the |0⟩ qubit, and the z-axis the |1⟩ qubit. When the wave function in superposition is measured, the state function collapses to one of the two poles no matter where it is on the sphere. The probability of collapsing into either pole depends on which pole the vector representing the qubit is closest to. The angle θ that the vector makes with the z-axis determines this probabilit...

Statement of Bell's Inequality

 One of the most important applications of quantum mechanics is Bell's inequality. In 1965, John Stewart Bell actually thought that Einstein might be right and tried to prove it, but proved that quantum logic violated classical logic. It was a revolutionary discovery. Let's look at its mathematically simple explanation. To create the analogy, let's first write a classical inequality.   This inequality above is a classic expression. The quantum analogy of this expression represents the Bell inequality. With just one difference. Bell's inequality shows that the above equation is violated. Expressing Bell's inequality by skipping some complicated mathematical intermediates; While there is no such situation in the classical world that will violate the inequality we mentioned at the beginning, it is difficult to find a situation that does not violate this inequality in the quantum world.

Rydberg Atoms and Quantum Computers: Exploring the Future of Computing

      Source: Universität Stuttgart In our fast-paced technological landscape, the boundaries of classical computing are being pushed, and new horizons are being sought through the fascinating realm of quantum mechanics. One of the latest breakthroughs in this field revolves around the potential applications of Rydberg atoms in quantum computers. Unveiling Rydberg Atoms Imagine atoms with their outer electrons situated in the highest energy orbits. These intriguing structures are known as Rydberg atoms. When electrons are in these lofty energy states, they take on orbits that are unusually distant from the atom's core. As a result, the atom's behavior changes dramatically. The notion of electrons roaming in remote orbits not only alters the atom's size but also amplifies its interaction capabilities. The Alluring Traits and Applications of Rydberg Atoms Rydberg atoms boast distinct characteristics that hold promise for quantum computing: Extended Interaction Reach...
