Abstract

As quantum computation continues to advance, distributed quantum computing is emerging as a crucial configuration, offering a means to leverage the best technology across diverse platforms. This approach is essential for enhancing scalability and advancing quantum resources towards faulttolerant demonstration. A fundamental element of this design is the establishment of scalable quantum networks with robust quantum memory systems. We have recently demonstrated a high efficiency and high bandwidth solid-state quantum memory developed for the Quantum-Accelerated Internet Testbed (QuAInT) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), reaching 28.5 ± 0.2% efficiency and a 630 MHz absorption window in the material. This work for QuAInT represents a collaborative endeavor across multiple institutions to establish the groundwork for a national quantum internet connection. We will highlight that work here, as well as our strategic vision to build a lower temperature and low-latency quantum memory platform.
