Quantification of Continuous Variable Entanglement with only Two Types of Simple Measurements

Quantum Physics 2015-06-26 v3

Abstract

Here we propose an experimental set-up in which it is possible to measure the entanglement of a two-mode Gaussian state, be it pure or mixed, using only simple linear optical devices. After a proper unitary manipulation of the two-mode Gaussian state only number and purity measurements of just one of the modes suffice to give us a complete and exact knowledge of the state's entanglement.
