Entanglement buffering with multiple quantum memories

Posted by dbos Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Álvaro G. Iñesta, Bethany Davies, Sounak Kar, Stephanie Wehner, | Summary: Entanglement buffers are systems that maintain high-quality entanglement, ensuring it is readily available for consumption when needed. In this work, we study the performance of a two-node buffer, where each node has one long-lived quantum memory […]
