This protocol can be used to distill highly entangled bi-partite Gaussian states from a supply of weakly entangled pure Gaussian states. The entire procedure requires only the use of passive optical elements and photon detectors that solely distinguish between the presence and absence of photons.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2003-02-07T15:57:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear optics", "entangled pure gaussian states", "entangled bi-partite gaussian states", "driving non-gaussian", "highly entangled bi-partite gaussian" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
