Gigahertz-Bandwidth Optical Memory in Pr:YSiO

M. Nicolle, J. N. Becker, C. Weinzetl +2

We experimentally study a broadband implementation of the atomic frequency comb (AFC) rephasing protocol with a cryogenically cooled Pr:YSiO crystal. To allow for st…

Preparing Narrow Velocity Distributions for Quantum Memories in Room-Temperature Alkali Vapours

D. Main, T. M. Hird, S. Gao +4

Quantum memories are a crucial technology for enabling large-scale quantum networks through synchronisation of probabilistic operations. Such networks impose strict requirements on…

Room Temperature Atomic Frequency Comb Memory for Light

D. Main, T. M. Hird, S. Gao +2

We demonstrate coherent storage and retrieval of pulsed light using the atomic frequency comb quantum memory protocol in a room temperature alkali vapour. We utilise velocity-selec…

Raman Quantum Memory with Built-In Suppression of Four-wave Mixing Noise

Sarah E. Thomas, Thomas M. Hird, Joseph H. D. Munns +5

Quantum memories are essential for large-scale quantum information networks. Along with high efficiency, storage lifetime and optical bandwidth, it is critical that the memory add…

Optimal Coherent Filtering for Single Noisy Photons

S. Gao, O. Lazo-Arjona, B. Brecht +6

We introduce a filter using a noise-free quantum buffer with large optical bandwidth that can both filter temporal-spectral modes, as well as inter-convert them and change their fr…

A two-way photonic interface for linking Sr+ transition at 422 nm to the telecommunications C-band

Thomas A. Wright, Robert J. A. Francis-Jones, Corin B. E. Gawith +7

We report a single-stage bi-directional interface capable of linking Sr+ trapped ion qubits in a long-distance quantum network. Our interface converts photons between the Sr+ emiss…
