Ultra-fast Photon Pair Sources for Quantum Networking

Abstract

We report a telecom teleportation experiment involving narrowband entangled photons and faint laser pulses. This opens the route towards hybrid quantum nodes combining cold-atom single photon sources and entanglement-based quantum relays.

Toward Continuous-Wave Regime Teleportation for Light Matter Quantum Relay Stations

Florian Kaiser, Amandine Issautier, Lutfi Arif Ngah +3 more

We report a teleportation experiment involving narrowband entangled photons at 1560 nm and qubit photons at 795 nm emulated by faint laser pulses. A nonlinear difference frequency generation stage converts the 795-nm photons to 1560 nm in order to enable interference with one photon out of the pairs, i.e., at the same wavelength. The spectral bandwidth of all involved photons is of about 25 MHz, which is close to the emission bandwidth of emissive quantum memory devices, notably those based on ensembles of cold atoms and rare earth ions. This opens the route toward the realization of hybrid quantum nodes, i.e., combining quantum memories and entanglement-based quantum relays exploiting either a synchronized (pulsed) or a asynchronous (continuous-wave) scenario.

Quantum teleportation over the Swisscom telecommunication network

Olivier Landry, J. A. W. van Houwelingen, A. Beveratos +2 more

We present a quantum teleportation experiment in the quantum relay configuration using the installed telecommunication network of Swisscom. In this experiment, the Bell-state measurement occurs well after the entanglement has been distributed, at a point where the photon upon which data are teleported is already far away, and the entangled qubits are photons created from a different crystal and laser pulse than the teleported qubit. A raw fidelity of 0.93±0.04 has been achieved using a heralded single-photon source.
