Abstract

The goal of teleportation is to transfer the state of one particle to another particle. In coined quantum walks, conditional shift operators can introduce entanglement between position space and coin space. This entanglement resource can be used as a quantum channel for teleportation, as proposed by Wang et al. (Quantum Inf Process 16:221, 2017). Here, we demonstrate the implementation of quantum teleportation using quantum walks on a five-qubit quantum computer and a 32-qubit simulator provided by IBM quantum experience beta platform. We show the teleportation of single-qubit, two-qubit and three-qubit quantum states with circuit implementation on the quantum devices. The teleportation of Bell, W and GHZ states has also been demonstrated as special cases of the above states.
