All of the key elements of the teleportation protocol are performed. The average fidelity for the three linearly independent quantum states is higher than the classical limit, which certifies the capability of teleporting a general quantum state.

This establishes the ultimate achievable bit rate under an energy constraint and provides long-awaited proof that the single-letter classical capacity of these channels is additive.  |

Experimentally, 11.1 triplets per minute are detected on average. The three-photon entangled state is used for state tomography and as a test of local realism by violating the Mermin and Svetlichny inequalities.  |
