Abstract

As demonstrated by E. Knill et al. [Nature 409, 46 (2001)], quantum teleportation and quantum logic gates with a success probability close to one can be implemented using only linear optical elements, additional photons, and post-selection. To do this, it is desirable to have special quantum channels in sight before quantum teleportation performance. Here, we propose an experimental arrangement to generate a two-photon KLM state different from the well-known Bell states. This two-photon KLM state can be used to enhance the success probability of the quantum teleportation of a one-mode quantum qubit from 0.5 up to 2/3.
