Light-matter entanglement over 50 km of optical fibre

Light-matter entanglement over 50 km of optical fibre

Abstract When shared between remote locations, entanglement opens up fundamentally new capabilities for science and technology. Envisioned quantum networks use light to distribute entanglement between their remote matter-based quantum nodes. Here we report on the observation of entanglement between matter (a trapped ion) and light (a photon) over 50 km …
