Sample-efficient adaptive calibration of quantum networks using Bayesian optimization
Cristian L. Cortes, Pascal Lefebvre, Nikolai Lauk +4
Indistinguishable photons are imperative for advanced quantum communication networks. Indistinguishability is difficult to obtain because of environment-induced photon transformati…
Illinois Express Quantum Network (IEQNET): Metropolitan-scale experimental quantum networking over deployed optical fiber
Joaquin Chung, Gregory Kanter, Nikolai Lauk +11
The Illinois Express Quantum Network (IEQNET) is a program to realize metro-scale quantum networking over deployed optical fiber using currently available technology. IEQNET consis…
Teleportation Systems Towards a Quantum Internet
Raju Valivarthi, Samantha Davis, Cristian Pena +20
Quantum teleportation is essential for many quantum information technologies including long-distance quantum networks. Using fiber-coupled devices, including state-of-the-art low-n…
Perspectives on quantum transduction
Nikolai Lauk, Neil Sinclair, Shabir Barzanjeh +4
Quantum transduction, the process of converting quantum signals from one form of energy to another, is an important area of quantum science and technology. The present perspective…
Towards long-distance quantum networks with superconducting processors and optical links
Sourabh Kumar, Nikolai Lauk, Christoph Simon
We design a quantum repeater architecture, necessary for long distance quantum networks, using the recently proposed microwave cat state qubits, formed and manipulated via interact…
Electron Spin Coherences in Rare-Earth Optically Excited States for Microwave to Optical Quantum Transducers
Sacha Welinski, Philip J. T. Woodburn, Nikolai Lauk +4
Efficient and reversible optical to microwave coherent transducers are required to enable entanglement transfer between superconducting qubits and light for quantum networks. Rare-…
