Abstract
Strong long-range coupling between distant spins is crucial for spin-based quantum information processing. However, achieving such a strong spin-spin coupling remains challenging. Here we propose to realize a strong coupling between two distant spins via the Kerr effect of magnons in a yttrium-iron-garnet nanosphere. By applying a microwave field on this nanosphere, the Kerr effect of magnons can induce the magnon squeezing, so that the coupling between the spin and the squeezed magnons can be exponentially enhanced. This in turn allows the spin-magnon distance to increase from nano- to micrometer scale. By considering the virtual excitation of the squeezed magnons in the dispersive regime, strong spin-spin coupling mediated by the squeezed magnons can be achieved, and a remote quantum-state transfer, as well as the nonlocal two-qubit iswap gate with high fidelity becomes implementable. Our approach offers a feasible scheme to perform quantum information processing among distant spins.
