Abstract
An efficient quantum secret sharing protocol with orthogonal product states in the 3 ⊗ 3 Hilbert space is presented. The particles in the orthogonal product states form two particle sequences. One sequence is sent to Bob and the other is sent to Charlie after rearranging the particle orders. With the help of Alice, Bob and Charlie make the corresponding local measurement to obtain the information of the orthogonal product states prepared. This protocol has many distinct features such as great capacity and high efficiency.
