Reliable Teleportation of Ionic Motional States Through a Mapping Process (1999)

De Almeida, N. G., Villas-Boas, C. J., Solano, E., Moussa, M. H. Y.

We show how to teleport reliably an arbitrary superposition of n=0 and n=1 vibrational number state between two distant ions. This is done by first mapping the vibrational state to be teleported into...

Numerical computation of one-photon mazer resonances for arbitrary field modes (1999)
