AMO Seminar: Aziza Suleymanzade, Harvard University, “Quantum network based on color centers in diamond nanocavities”

Silicon Vacancy color centers in diamonds coupled to nanophotonic crystal cavities offer a promising platform for realizing quantum networks, combining long coherence times, efficient coupling to photons with high optical cooperativities, and on-chip scalability. In this talk, I will report on our recent progress toward the realization of such distributed quantum systems. In particular, I will describe experimental generation and long-lived storage of distributed entanglement across a two-node network separated by 40 km fiber. Finally, I will discuss potential applications of distributed entanglement, such as blind delegated computing and long-baseline interferometry.
