Generation of perfect W-state and demonstration of its application to quantum information splitting (2006.01742v1)

Abstract: We report the first experimental realization of perfect W-state in a superconducting qubit based system. In contrast to maximally entangled state, the perfect W state is different in weights and phases of the terms contained in the maximally entangled W-state. The prefect W state finds important applications in quantum information processing tasks such as perfect teleportation, superdense coding, secret sharing etc. The efficiency of generation is quantified by fidelity which is calculated by performing full quantum state tomography. To verify the presence of genuine nonlocality in the generated state, we experimentally perform Mermin's inequality tests. Further, we have also demonstrated splitting and sharing of quantum information using the experimentally generated state.
