Why Quantum Networks?

Large number of ions in one trap is not feasible:

  • 1D string -> requirements on trap potential
  • Heating rate increases linearly
  • Mechanical mode density increases

State of the art: ~15 qubits

  • Entanglement of 14 ions

Monz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 130506 (2011)

  • Simulations using long chains (~20 ions)

k systems of n qubits:

  • With classical links: d = k 2n (dim. of state space)

With quantum links: d = 2nk

  • Multiple qubit entanglement
  • > State transfer, information sharing

Requirements for Quantum Networks

We infer the following requirements. For Nodes:

  • Receiving, storing, releasing quantum information

For Channels:

  • Faithfully transmit quantum state between nodes

Conclusion

  • To build large-scale quantum systems, we need to

create entanglement between distant nodes

  • Two approaches for entangling atoms/ions

discussed:

  • Heralded entanglement creation using beam

splitter (probabilistic)

  • Atom-cavity nodes allowing deterministic

interaction with photons
