Popis: We develop a novel protocol to achieve entanglement creation between qubit pairs by making a qubit pair experience an indefinite causal order process. In particular, our protocol does not need two qubits to interact with each other, meaning that only local operations are applied on individual qubits. In order to demonstrate the usage of the protocol, we first identify the conditions under which, EPR pairs, the maximally entangled states emerge from our protocol. Furthermore, we show that, although our protocol is not deterministic, the success probability of getting an EPR pair could be non-vanishing, even comparably high enough. Our result not only sheds new light on entanglement creation, but revealing that a quantum switch has further potential to be explored.
