Abstract: Quantum information science is currently a major global hotspot,including quantum communications

and quantum computing. Quantum entanglement,the special character of quantum mechanics,is the basis of

quantum information,and quantum teleportation is one important option to realize quantum communication.

Austrian physicist Anton Zeilinger is an indispensable figure in this research. This paper introduces Zeilinger's

  research experience and his role in the verification of Bell's inequality to the development of quantum information,

  including multi-particle entanglement and quantum teleportation. At the same time,we analyze some researchers

  that have great influence on his research.

Key words: quantum information, Anton Zeilinger, quantum entanglement, quantum teleportation
