EFFECT OF DECOHERENCE ON FIDELITY IN TELEPORTATION OF ENTANGLED COHERENT STATES

We consider the scheme proposed by Wang [Phys. Rev. A64 (2001) 022302] for teleporting bipartite entangled states, which is a superposition of coherent states |α,α〉 and |-α,-α〉, with our suggested modification [Phys. Rev. A75 (2007) 044305] and discuss the effect of decoherence on teleportation fidelity. We find that if no photons are counted in both final outputs, the minimum assured fidelity (MAF), which is the minimum of the fidelity for any arbitrary information), is still nonzero except for the case when there is no decoherence and the information is in even coherent state. For non-zero photon counts, MAF decreases with increase in |α|2 for low noise but in the case of high noise, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α|2. We discuss the variation of average fidelity with |α|2 and show that it depends appreciably on the information for low values of |α|2 only.
