We argue that long optical storage times are required to establish entanglement at high rates over large distances using memory-based quantum repeaters. Triggered by this conclusion, we investigate the $^3$H$_6$ $leftrightarrow$ $^3$H$_4$ transition at 795.325 nm of Tm:Y$_3$Ga$_5$O$_{12}$ (Tm:YGG). Most importantly, we show that the optical coherence time can reach 1.1 ms, and, using laser pulses, we demonstrate optical storage based on the atomic frequency comb protocol up to 100 $mu$s as well as a memory decay time T$_M$ of 13.1 $mu$s. Possibilities of how to narrow the gap between the measured value of T$_m$ and its maximum of 275 $mu$s are discussed. In addition, we demonstrate quantum state storage using members of non-classical photon pairs. Our results show the potential of Tm:YGG for creating quantum memories with long optical storage times, and open the path to building extended quantum networks.

We investigate the performance of inhomogeneously broadened spin ensembles as quantum memories under continuous dynamical decoupling. The role of the continuous driving field is two-fold: first, it decouples individual spins from magnetic noise; seco
nd and more important, it suppresses and reshapes the spectral inhomogeneity of spin ensembles. We show that a continuous driving field, which itself may also be inhomogeneous over the ensemble, can enhance the decay of the tails of the inhomogeneous broadening distribution considerably. This fact enables a spin ensemble based quantum memory to exploit the effect of cavity protection and achieve a much longer storage time. In particular, for a spin ensemble with a Lorentzian spectral distribution, our calculations demonstrate that continuous dynamical decoupling has the potential to improve its storage time by orders of magnitude for the state-of-art experimental parameters.
We demonstrate long-lived coherence in internal hyperfine states of a single Ca{43} trapped-ion qubit $[T_2=1.2(2)s]$, and in external motional states of a single Ca{40} trapped-ion qubit $[T_2=0.18(4)s]$, in the same apparatus. The motional decohere
nce rate is consistent with the heating rate, which was measured to be 3(1) quanta/sec. Long coherence times in the external motional states are essential for performing high-fidelity quantum logic gates between trapped-ion qubits. The internal-state $T_2$ time that we observe in Ca{43}, which has not previously been used as a trapped-ion qubit, is about one thousand times longer than that of physical qubits based on Ca{40} ions. Using a single spin-echo pulse to ``re-phase the internal state, we can detect no decoherence after 1s, implying an effective coherence time $T_2^{mbox{tiny SE}} gtish 45s$. This compares with timescales in this trap for single-qubit operations of ish 1us, and for two-qubit operations of ish 10us.
We investigate theoretically the coupling of a cavity mode to a continuous distribution of emitters. We discuss the influence of the emitters inhomogeneous broadening on the existence and on the coherence properties of the polaritonic peaks. We find
that their coherence depends crucially on the shape of the distribution and not only on its width. Under certain conditions the coupling to the cavity protects the polaritonic states from inhomogeneous broadening, resulting in a longer storage time for a quantum memory based on emitters ensembles. When two different ensembles of emitters are coupled to the resonator, they support a peculiar collective dark state, also very attractive for the storage of quantum information.
We investigate a hybrid quantum circuit where ensembles of cold polar molecules serve as long-lived quantum memories and optical interfaces for solid state quantum processors. The quantum memory realized by collective spin states (ensemble qubit) is
coupled to a high-Q stripline cavity via microwave Raman processes. We show that for convenient trap-surface distances of a few $mu$m, strong coupling between the cavity and ensemble qubit can be achieved. We discuss basic quantum information protocols, including a swap from the cavity photon bus to the molecular quantum memory, and a deterministic two qubit gate. Finally, we investigate coherence properties of molecular ensemble quantum bits.
In high dimensional quantum communication networks, quantum frequency convertor (QFC) is indispensable as an interface in the frequency domain. For example, many QFCs have been built to link atomic memories and fiber channels. However, almost all of
QFCs work in a two-dimensional space. It is still a pivotal challenge to construct a high-quality QFC for some complex quantum states, e.g., a high dimensional single-photon state that refers to a qudit. Here, we firstly propose a high-dimensional QFC for an orbital angular momentum qudit via sum frequency conversion with a flat top beam pump. As a proof-of-principle demonstration, we realize quantum frequency
