N2 - Quantum entanglement distillation is a probabilistic process which protects entanglement from environment-induced decoherence. In this paper, we investigate the distillation of a continuousvariable optic entangled state with noiseless linear amplification (NLA). NLA schemes perform better than the conventional photon-subtraction-based distillation scheme, particularly in distributing entanglement over extremely low efficiency quantum channels. Finally, a comparison between the NLA-based scheme and the local squeezing-enhanced photon subtraction scheme is also investigated.
