Controllable entangled state distribution in a dual-rail reconfigurable optical network
arXiv:2108.01946 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.104.012617
Abstract
Reconfigurable distribution of entangled states is essential for operation of quantum networks connecting multiple devices such as quantum memories and quantum computers. We introduce new quantum distribution network architecture enabling control of the entangled state propagation direction using linear-optical devices and phase shifters and offering reconfigurable connections between multiple quantum nodes. The basic two-photon entanglement distribution scheme is first introduced to illustrate the principle of operation. The scheme is then extended to a network structure with increased number of spatial modes connecting potential end-users. We present several examples of controllable network configuration modifications using time-dependent phase shifters.
