Optically probing the detection mechanism in a molybdenum silicide superconducting nanowire single-photon detector
Misael Caloz, Boris Korzh, Nuala Timoney +7
We experimentally investigate the detection mechanism in a meandered molybdenum silicide (MoSi) superconducting nanowire single-photon detector by characterising the detection prob…
Noise in optical quantum memories based on dynamical decoupling of spin states
Emmanuel Zambrini Cruzeiro, Florian Fröwis, Nuala Timoney +1
Long-lived optical quantum memories are of great importance for scalable distribution of entanglement over remote networks (e.g. quantum repeaters). Long-lived storage generally re…
Towards highly multimode optical quantum memory for quantum repeaters
Pierre Jobez, Nuala Timoney, Cyril Laplane +5
Long-distance quantum communication through optical fibers is currently limited to a few hundreds of kilometres due to fiber losses. Quantum repeaters could extend this limit to co…
Multiplexed on-demand storage of polarization qubits in a crystal
Cyril Laplane, Pierre Jobez, Jean Etesse +3
A long-lived and multimode quantum memory is a key component needed for the development of quantum communication. Here we present temporally multiplexed storage of 5 photonic polar…
Coherent spin control at the quantum level in an ensemble-based optical memory
Pierre Jobez, Cyril Laplane, Nuala Timoney +4
Long-lived quantum memories are essential components of a long-standing goal of remote distribution of entanglement in quantum networks. These can be realized by storing the quantu…
Cavity-enhanced storage in an optical spin-wave memory
Pierre Jobez, Imam Usmani, Nuala Timoney +3
We report on the experimental demonstration of an optical spin-wave memory, based on the atomic frequency comb (AFC) scheme, where the storage efficiency is strongly enhanced by an…
