We show that, in a multi-party setting, two non-distillable (bound-entangled) states tensored together can make a distillable state. This is an example of true superadditivity of distillable entanglement. We also show that unlockable…

We derive general upper bounds on the distillable entanglement of a mixed state under one-way and two-way LOCC. In both cases, the upper bound is based on a convex decomposition of the state into 'useful' and 'useless' quantum states. By…

Using a spontaneous-downconversion photon source, we produce true non-maximally entangled states, i.e., without the need for post-selection. The degree and phase of entanglement are readily tunable, and are characterized both by a standard…

A system of three or four particle can be entangled in a number of different ways. It may be the case that only subsets of the particles are entangled, and these subsets are not entangled with each other. It may also be the case that the…
