Experimental entanglement of 25 individually accessible atomic quantum interfaces

Abstract

Quantum interface links stationary qubits in quantum memory with flying photonic qubits in optical transmission channels and constitutes a critical element for future quantum internet. Entanglement of quantum interfaces is a key step for realization of quantum networks. Through heralded detection of photon interference, here we generate multipartite entanglement between 25 (or 9) individually addressable quantum interfaces in a multiplexed atomic quantum memory array and confirm genuine 22 (or 9) partite entanglement, respectively. Experimental entanglement of a record-high number of quantum interfaces makes an important enabling step towards realization of quantum networks, long-distance quantum communication, and multipartite quantum information processing.
