We consider quantum networks, where entangled photon pairs are distributed using fibre optic links from a centralized source to entangling nodes. The entanglement is then stored (via an entanglement swap) in entangling nodes' quantum…

Trapped ions are excellent candidates for quantum nodes, as they possess many desirable features of a network node including long-lifetimes, on-site processing capability and produce photonic flying qubits. However, unlike classical…
Entanglement of a 795 nm light polarization qubit and an atomic Rb spin wave qubit for a storage time of 0.1 s is observed by measuring the violation of Bell's inequality (S = 2.65 \pm 0.12). Long qubit storage times are achieved by pinning…
Electron spins and photons are complementary quantum-mechanical objects that can be used to carry, manipulate and transform quantum information. To combine these resources, it is desirable to achieve the coherent coupling of a single spin…
The quantum interface (QI) that generates entanglement between photonic and spin-wave (atomic memory) qubits is a basic building block for quantum repeaters. Realizing ensemble-based repeaters in practice requires quantum memory providing…

Trapped atomic ions are ideal single photon emitters with long lived internal states which can be entangled with emitted photons. Coupling the ion to an optical cavity enables efficient emission of single photons into a single spatial mode…
Entanglement shared between distant parties is a key resource in quantum networks. However, photon losses in quantum channels significantly reduce the success probability of entanglement sharing, which scales quadratically with the channel…
To advance the full potential of quantum networks one should be able to distribute quantum resources over long distances at appreciable rates. As a consequence, all components in the networks need to have large multimode capacity to…
