Quantum Networks with Artificial Atoms in Scalable Photonic Circuits: Architecture Designs to Proof of Concept Systems

Abstract

The central challenge in building quantum computers and long-range quantum networks is distributing entanglement across multiple individually-controllable quantum memories. While proof-of-concept experiments are possible with today’s optical components, scaling these systems to tens, hundreds, or thousands of individually controllable quantum memories requires very-large-scale integration of electronic and photonic circuits.
