Entanglement Detection: A Scoping Review

Quantum entanglement is a critical physical process in quantum mechanics and quantum information theory. It is a required process in quantum computing, quantum teleportation, and quantum cryptography. Entanglement detection affects the performance of quantum information processing tasks. Entanglement detection has grown in popularity over the years, and various entanglement detection methods are available, though some have application and system scale limitations. This scoping review sought to identify various measurement methods for entanglement detection in both bipartite and multipartite entanglement systems. Secondary resource indexed literatures were selected based on specific keywords from literatures published between 2017 and 2021. The goal of this study is to present a proposed conceptual framework of entanglement detection based on previous work as a guidance and reference founded on one’s specific requirements.
