摘要: We present a qubit-loss-free (QLF) fusion scheme for generating large-scale atom W states in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) system. Compared to the most current fusion schemes which are conditioned on the case where one particle can be extracted from each initial W state to the fusion process, our scheme will access one or two particles from each W state. Based on the atom-cavity-field detuned interaction, three $|W\rangle_{n+m+t}$ states can be generated from the $|W\rangle_n$, $|W\rangle_m$, and $|W\rangle_t$ states with the help of two auxiliary atoms, and three $|W\rangle_{n+m+t+q}$ states can be generated from $|W\rangle_n$, $|W\rangle_m$, $|W\rangle_t$, and a $|W\rangle_q$ state with the help of three auxiliary atoms. Comparing the numerical simulations of the resource cost of fusing three small-size W states based on the previous schemes, our fusion scheme seems to be more efficient. This QLF fusion scheme can be generalized to the case of fusing $k$ different or identical particle W states. Furthermore, with no qubit loss, it greatly reduces the number of fusion steps and prepares W states with larger particle numbers.
