A special issue preface: diamond for quantum applications

Shannon S. Nicley, Gavin W. Morley, Ken Haenen

This special issue discusses current progress in the utilization of defect centres in diamond as spin-photon interfaces for quantum applications. This issue is based on the discussions of the Theo Murphy meeting 'Diamond for quantum applications' which covered the recent progress of diamond growth and engineering for the creation and optimization of colour centres, toward the integration of diamond-based qubits in quantum systems. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue 'Diamond for quantum applications'.

A thin film lithium niobate near-infrared platform for multiplexing quantum nodes

Daniel Assumpção, Dylan L. Renaud, Aida Baradari +7 more

Practical quantum networks will require multi-qubit quantum nodes. This in turn will increase the complexity of the photonic circuits needed to control each qubit and require strategies to multiplex memories. Integrated photonics operating at visible to near-infrared (VNIR) wavelength range can provide solutions to these needs. In this work, we realize a VNIR thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) integrated photonics platform with the key components to meet these requirements, including low-loss couplers (<1 dB/facet), switches (>20 dB extinction), and high-bandwidth electro-optic modulators (>50 GHz). With these devices, we demonstrate high-efficiency and CW-compatible frequency shifting (>50% efficiency at 15 GHz), as well as simultaneous laser amplitude and frequency control. Finally, we highlight an architecture for multiplexing quantum memories and outline how this platform can enable a 2-order of magnitude improvement in entanglement rates over single memory nodes. Our results demonstrate that TFLN can meet the necessary performance and scalability benchmarks to enable large-scale quantum nodes.
