process known as teleportation the unknown
state of a quantum bit can be relayed to a distant party using shared
entanglement and classical information. Here we present experiments in a
solid-state system based on superconducting quantum circuits demonstrating the
teleportation of the state of a qubit at the macroscopic scale. In our
experiments teleportation is realized deterministically with high efficiency
and achieves a high rate of transferred qubit states. This constitutes a
significant step towards the realization of repeaters for quantum communication
at microwave frequencies and broadens the tool set for quantum information
processing with superconducting circuits.
Realization of Deterministic Quantum Teleportation with Solid State Qubits
Transferring the state of an information carrier from a sender to a receiver
is an essential primitive in both classical and quantum communication and
information processing. In a quantum
