Realistic conversion of single-mode squeezed vacuum state to largeamplitude high-fidelity Schrödinger cat states by inefficient photon number resolving detection

Dmitry A Kuts, Mikhail S Podoshvedov, Ba An Nguyen and Sergey A Podoshvedov

We theoretically propose an efficient way to generate optical analogs of both even and odd Schrӧdinger cat states(SCSs) of large amplitude with high fidelity and reasonable generation rate. The resources consumed are a single-mode squeezed vacuum state (SMSV) and possibly a single photon or nothing. We report the generation of even (odd) SCS with amplitude 4.2, fidelity higher than 0.99 with success probability a little more than10-7 by subtraction of 30 31 ( ) photons from SMSV by ideal photon number detection. In order to reduce the requirements for the sensitivity of photon number resolving (PNR) detector, we show the implementation of even/odd SCSs with the same characteristics with two PNR detectors resolving only 15 photons each instead of 30.In the case of inefficient detector, SCS’s size and its fidelity can be kept close to perfect by using highly transmitting beam splitter, but at the cost of very dramatic reduction of the success probability. In order to have certain harmony between the characteristics(large amplitude, high fidelity and acceptable success probability) in the case of imperfect detection, highly transmitting beam splitters should not be used and number of the subtracted photons must be reduced to 10 11 .
