Chip-to-Chip Quantum Photonic Controlled-not Gate Teleportation

Quantum networks provide a novel framework for quantum information processing, significantly improving system capacity through the interconnection of modular quantum nodes. Beyond the capability to distribute quantum states, the ability to remotely control quantum gates is a pivotal step for quantum networks. Here, we implement high-fidelity quantum controlled-not (cnot) gate teleportation with high-dimensional path encoded silicon photonic integrated circuits. Based on on-chip generation of the path-entangled quantum state, cnot gate operation, and chip-to-chip quantum photonic interconnect, the cnot gate is teleported between two remote quantum nodes connected by the single-mode optical fiber. Equip with 5 m (1 km)-long interconnecting fiber, quantum gate teleportation is verified by entangling remote qubits with 95.69%±1.19% (94.07%±1.54%) average fidelity and gate tomography with 94.81%±0.81% (93.04%±1.09%) fidelity. These results advance the realization of large-scale and practical quantum networks with photonic integrated circuits.
