Realization of quantum correlation transfer between twin beams
by conditional preparation technique

Yun Zhang, Kazuhiro Hayasaka, Katsuyuki Kasai

Abstract
A conditional quantum correlation transfer is demonstrated experimentally for continuous variables by employing two pairs of twin-beams states. In present paper, the quantum correlation of twin beams is indicated by loss coefficient or ggemellityh, which is the remaining noise on the intensity difference normalized to the shot noise level. The quantum correlation between two initial idler beams with loss coefficient of 0.4 was conditionally transferred from two pairs of initially independent twin beams with loss coefficient of 0.2. A theory of conditional quantum correlation transfer and comparison between experimental results and theoretical prediction are also presented. The experimental results agree with the theory well.
