Linear amplification and quantum cloning for non-Gaussian continuous variables Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We investigate phase-insensitive linear amplification at the quantum limit for single-and two-mode states and show that there exists a broad class of non-Gaussian states whose nonclassicality survives even at an arbitrarily large gain. We identify the corresponding observable nonclassical effects and find that they include, remarkably, two-mode entanglement. The implications of our results for quantum cloning outside the Gaussian regime are also addressed. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.
