摘　　要：Hybrid entangled states(HESs),which involve different particles with various degrees of freedom,have garnered significant attention and been applied in a wide range of quantum technologies.However,similar to other categories of entanglement,maximally HESs inevitably degrade to mixed states due to the environmental noise and operational imperfections.To address the degradation problem,measurement-based entanglement purification offers a feasible and robust solution alternative to conventional gate-based purification methods.In this paper,we propose a measurement-based hybrid entanglement purification protocol(MB-HEPP)for a certain kind of HES which consists of polarization photons and coherent states.We extend our methodology to several conditions,such as the multi-copy and multi-party scenarios,and the photon-loss condition.Compared with previous HEPPs,this protocol has several advantages.First,it does not depend on post-selection and the purified HESs can be retained for further application.Second,it does not require the Bell state measurement,but only uses the parity check with conventional linear optical elements,which makes it have the higher success probability and more feasible.Our MB-HEPP has potential applications in future heterogeneous quantum networks.
