Abstract

The long-range transmission of quantum information relies on multiple interfaces between photons, acting as flying qubits, and localized memories, serving as repeaters, to mitigate transmission losses. Efficient, long-range transmission necessitates the use of short, picosecond-scale photons, which are markedly different from the narrowband, nanosecond-scale photons optimal for absorption by memory elements, typically operating at wavelengths far from telecom. In this article, we point toward designs capable of bridging these regimes, leveraging the interplay between sum-frequency generation-based quantum frequency conversion and resonant confinement in an integrated ring resonator.

纳米到皮米带宽压缩和太赫兹范围量子频率转换的量子互连

量子信息的远距离传输依赖于作为飞行量子比特的光子与作为中继器的局部存储器之间的多个接口，以减少传输损耗。高效的远距离传输需要使用短的、皮秒量级的光子，这与最适合存储元件吸收的窄带、纳秒量级的光子明显不同，后者通常在远离电信的波长下工作。在这篇文章中，我们将利用基于和频产生的量子频率转换与集成环形谐振器中的谐振约束之间的相互作用，介绍能够弥合这两种情况的设计。
