Abstract

The unextendible product bases (UPBs) are interesting members from the family of orthogonal product states. In this paper, we investigate the construction of 3-qubit UPB with strong nonlocality of different sizes. First, a UPB set in ${{C}^{3}}\otimes {{C}^{3}}\otimes {{C}^{3}}$ of size 12 is presented based on the Shifts UPB, the structure of which is described by mapping the system to a $3\times 3\times 3$ Rubik's Cube. After observing the orthogonal graph of each qubit, we provide a general method of constructing UPB in ${{C}^{d}}\otimes {{C}^{d}}\otimes {{C}^{d}}$ of size ${{\left( d-1 \right)}^{3}}+3\left( d-2 \right)+1$. Second, for the more general case where the dimensions of qubits are different, we extend the tile structure to 3-qubit system and propose a Tri-tile structure for 3-qubit UPB. Then, by means of this structure, a ${{C}^{4}}\otimes {{C}^{4}}\otimes {{C}^{5}}$ system of size 30 is obtained based on a ${{C}^{3}}\otimes {{C}^{3}}\otimes {{C}^{4}}$ system. Similarly, we generalize this approach to ${{C}^{{{d}_{1}}}}\otimes {{C}^{{{d}_{2}}}}\otimes {{C}^{{{d}_{3}}}}$ system which has a similar composition to ${{C}^{d}}\otimes {{C}^{d}}\otimes {{C}^{d}}$. Our research provides a positive answer to the open questions raised in [Halder, et al., PRL, 122, 040403 (2019)], indicating that there do exist multi-qubit UPBs that can exhibit strong quantum nonlocality without entanglement.
