Trapped atomic ions embedded in optical cavities are a promising platform to enable long-distance quantum networks and their most far-reaching applications. Here we achieve and analyze photon indistinguishability in a telecom-converted ion-cavity system. First, two-photon interference of cavity photons at their ion-resonant wavelength is observed and found to reach the limits set by spontaneous emission. Second, this limit is shown to be preserved after a two-step frequency conversion replicating a distributed scenario, in which the cavity photons are converted to the telecom C band and then back to the original wavelength. The achieved interference visibility and photon efficiency would allow for the distribution and practical verification of entanglement between ion-qubit registers separated by several tens of kilometers.

We generate indistinguishable photons from a semiconductor diode containing a InAs/GaAs quantum dot. Using an all-electrical technique to populate and control a single-photon emitting state we filter-out dephasing by Stark-shifting the emission energ
y on timescales below the dephasing time of the state. Mixing consecutive photons on a beam-splitter we observe two-photon interference with a visibility of 64%.
Trapped atomic ions are a leading platform for quantum information networks, with long-lived identical qubit memories that can be locally entangled through their Coulomb interaction and remotely entangled through photonic channels. However, performin
g both local and remote operations in a single node of a quantum network requires extreme isolation between spectator qubit memories and qubits associated with the photonic interface. We achieve this isolation and demonstrate the ingredients of a scalable ion trap network node by co-trapping $^{171}$Yb$^+ $ and $^{138}$Ba$^+ $ qubits, entangling the mixed species qubit pair through their collective motion, and entangling the $^{138}$Ba$^+ $ qubits with emitted visible photons.
In this letter, we present a detailed, all optical study of the influence of different excitation schemes on the indistinguishability of single photons from a single InAs quantum dot. For this study, we measure the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference of cons
ecutive photons from the spontaneous emission of an InAs quantum dot state under various excitation schemes and different excitation conditions and give a comparison.
The development of scalable sources of non-classical light is fundamental to unlock the technological potential of quantum photonicscite{Kimble:Nat2008}. Among the systems under investigation, semiconductor quantum dots are currently emerging as near
-optimal sources of indistinguishable single photons. However, their performances as sources of entangled-photon pairs are in comparison still modest. Experiments on conventional Stranski-Krastanow InGaAs quantum dots have reported non-optimal levels of entanglement and indistinguishability of the emitted photons. For applications such as entanglement teleportation and quantum repeaters, both criteria have to be met simultaneously. In this work, we show that this is possible focusing on a system that has received limited attention so far: GaAs quantum dots grown via droplet etching. Using a two-photon resonant excitation scheme, we demonstrate that these quantum dots can emit triggered polarization-entangled photons with high purity (g^(2)(0)=0.002 +/-0.002), high indistinguishability (0.93 +/-0.07) and high entanglement fidelity (0.94 +/-0.01). Such unprecedented degree of entanglement, which in contrast to InGaAs can theoretically reach near-unity values, allows Bells inequality (2.64 +/-0.01) to be violated without the aid of temporal or spectral filtering. Our results show that if quantum-dot entanglement resources are to be used for future quantum technologies, GaAs might be the system of choice.
Fiber-based quantum networks require photons at telecommunications wavelengths to interconnect qubits separated by long distances. Trapped ions are leading candidates for quantum networking with high-fidelity two-qubit gates, long coherence times, an
d the ability to emit photons entangled with the ions internal qubit states. However, trapped ions typically emit photons at wavelengths incompatible with telecommunications fiber. Here, we demonstrate frequency conversion of visible photons emitted from a trapped ion into the telecommunications C-band. These results are an important step towards enabling a long-distance trapped ion quantum internet.
