2、pplied to composite quantum systems. It not only provides possibilities to test the foundations of quantum physics , but also lies at the heart of the growing field of quantum information science1. Compared with bipartite entangled states , multipartite entangled states would exhibit clearer nonclas
3、sical effects and are more useful for quantum applications23. Thus characterizing and preparing multipartite entangled states have been attracting much attention. However , preparation of multipartite entangled states is an experimental challenge , because of the technical difficulty of manipulating
4、 individual particles. So far , tripartite GreenbergerHorneZeilinger ( GHZ ) state in cavity QED4 , 10photon GHZ state5 , 6photon cluster state6 , 3photon W state7 , and 14ion GHZ state8 have been observed. Wtype entangled state is a special type of multipartite entangled state9, and has widespread
5、applications in quantum information processing ( see, e.g., Refs. 1014 ) . Thus, generation of multiparticle Wtype states has been paid much attention.湖南师范大学自然科学学报 第 36卷第 3 期汪新文等:囚禁离子多体 W 类纠缠态的简单制备方案 Not long before , the Innsbruck group has experimentally prepared 40Ca+ionic 8qubit W state15 , with
6、 S1/2 ( mj=1/2 ) acting as the lower level and D5/2 ( mj=-1/2 ) acting as the upper level. In the experiment , they individually derived each of the ions with sequential blue sideband pulses , and created a W state step by step with one motional quantum as memory. In this paper , we propose an alter
7、native scheme to generate multipartite entanglement of the W type in the iontrap system , which can be regarded as an improvement on that of Ref.15. In the scheme , an Nion W state can be created in one step by driving simultaneously the ions with one red sideband laser beam. Moreover , the larger t
8、he number of ions N is , the less time it will take to prepare the desired state. Thus our scheme is much faster and simpler than that of Ref.15 , which is very important in view of decoherence.We consider that N identical ions ( for example , 40Ca+ ions ) are confined in a linear Paul trap. Each of them has the ground state gand the excited state e .We simultaneously drive the ions using a red sideband laser beam with frequency of - v, where 0is the frequency of electronic
