Robust transfer of a quantum state from an absorbed photon into a diamond spin

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Conversion of a quantum state from a flying qubit to a memory qubit is crucial for distributed quantum computing. However, this requires precise spatiotemporal or frequency/phase alignment. Here, we experimentally demonstrate quantum teleportation-based state transfer from a photon into a spin in a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond robust against both spectral and temporal errors. The achieved fidelity exceeds 0.94 within a frequency error of 100 MHz and 0.93 within an arrival-time error of 100 ns. This achievement could enable extraordinarily robust entanglement generation between remote quantum memories compared with the conventional photon-interference-based approaches and paves the way for stable quantum networks.
