Quantum Storage of a Photonic Polarization Qubit in a Solid
Quantum Storage of a Photonic Polarization Qubit in a Solid
We report on the quantum storage and retrieval of photonic polarization quantum bits onto and out of a solid state storage device. The qubits are implemented with weak coherent states at the single photon level, and are stored for 500 ns in a praseodymium doped crystal with a storage and …
