Abstract
En 中文
Photonic integrated quantum memories are essential for the construction of scalable quantum networks. Spin-wave quantum storage, which can support on-demand retrieval with a long lifetime, is indispensable for practical applications, but has never been demonstrated in an integrated solid-state device. Here, we demonstrate spin-wave quantum storage based on a laser-written waveguide fabricated in a 151Eu3+:Y2SiO5 crystal, using both the atomic frequency comb and noiseless photon-echo protocols. Qubits encoded with single-photon-level inputs are stored and retrieved with a fidelity of ${94.9\%\pm 1.2\%}$, which is far beyond the maximal fidelity that can be obtained with any classical device. Our results underline the potential of laser-written integrated devices for practical applications in large-scale quantum networks, such as the construction of multiplexed quantum repeaters in an integrated configuration and high-density transportable quantum memories. Single-photon-level light is stored as a spin-wave excitation in a laser-written waveguide, unlocking its practical applications in quantum repeaters and transportable quantum memories.
