Can Electric Fields be Teleported & Entangled?

In summary, it seems that if photons can be measured on quantum state levels then teleported and entangled, as done in photonic networking with NV centers, can entire electric fields also be measured, teleported, reconstructed and entangled as the ensembles of photons they are?

If photons can be measured on quantum state levels then teleported and entangled, as done in photonic networking with NV centers, can entire electric fields also be measured, teleported, reconstructed and entangled as the ensembles of photons they are ?If so, can the electric fields of NEURONS be measured, teleported and entangled to the teleported and reconstructed electric field ?

I can provide links which support this idea, but I'd like to hear from others.

In this link NV centers are used to trap entangled photon pairs in repeater nodes among a network
http://www.nature.com/articles/srep26284And in a link I will soon add, NV centers are used to determine quantum states of electric fields of neurons..

So the billion dollar question is, can electric fields be entangled ?

My expertise is limited, but my incomplete and quite possibly inaccurate understanding would suggest thatvthe question is moot in that there is but a single, universe-spanning EM field for which its 'strength' at a given point is defined according to the ensemble effects of charged objects throughout the universe.
Given that most typically EM fields are stronger surrounding a charged object(arguably the charge is a particular strength of this field) it can be prosaica!ly considered as a localised field 'belonging to' the charged object extending until the effective strength of the influence of the charge becomes neglible in contextShould a number of charged objects be entangled and reliably teleported to be positioned relative to tbeir clunterpart origin, then the strength of field between them might offer similar vectors, however tbere may be influence due to proximity of other charges and undoubtedly some uncertainty in the positions or velocities which could impact the densigy of charge at given points.

Electric fields are not "ensembles of photons". Photons and electric fields, from the standpoint of quantum field theory, are both particular kinds of states of the underlying quantum field (the electromagnetic field, in this case).

In principle any quantum state can be entangled. In practice some states are much easier to do it with than others. If you have other links, please post them.
 

Related to Can Electric Fields be Teleported & Entangled?

1. Can electric fields be teleported?

At this time, there is no known mechanism for teleporting electric fields. While quantum teleportation has been achieved for certain quantum states, it is not possible to teleport a classical electric field.

2. Can electric fields be entangled?

Yes, electric fields can be entangled in a similar way to quantum particles. This means that the states of two or more electric fields can be correlated and affect each other even when they are physically separated.

3. How is entanglement of electric fields useful?

The entanglement of electric fields has potential applications in quantum communication and computing. It allows for secure communication and faster processing of information.

4. Is it possible to entangle electric fields over long distances?

Currently, entangling electric fields over long distances is limited by the strength of the electric field. However, research is being done to overcome this limitation and increase the distance over which electric fields can be entangled.

5. Can entangled electric fields be used for faster-than-light communication?

No, entangled electric fields cannot be used for faster-than-light communication. While entanglement allows for instantaneous correlation between two particles, it does not allow for the transfer of information at speeds faster than the speed of light.
