摘要
A family of asymmetric quantum cloning machines is introduced that produce two approximate copies 8 MAY 2000 of a single quantum bit, each copy emerging from a Pauli channel. A no-cloning inequality is derived describing the balance between the quality of the copies. The Pauli cloning machine is also shown to put a limit on the quantum capacity of Pauli channels.
