On the Quantum Performance Evaluation of Two Distributed Quantum Architectures

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Gayane Vardoyan, Matthew Skrzypczyk, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Distributed quantum applications impose requirements on the quality of the quantum states that they consume. When analyzing architecture implementations of quantum hardware, characterizing this quality forms an important factor in understanding their performance. Fundamental characteristics of quantum hardware […]

A long-lived solid-state optical quantum memory for high-rate quantum repeaters

Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | First 5 Authors: Mohsen Falamarzi Askarani, Antariksha Das, Jacob H. Davidson, Gustavo C. Amaral, Neil Sinclair | Summary: We argue that long optical storage times are required to establish entanglement at high rates over large distances using memory-based quantum repeaters. Triggered by this conclusion, we investigate the $^3$H$_6$ $leftrightarrow$ $^3$H$_4$ […]
