  • QUANTUM NETWORK DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20230421367
    Abstract: Quantum network devices, systems, and methods are provided to enable long-distance transmission of quantum bits (qubits) for applications such as Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), entanglement distribution, and other quantum communication applications. Such systems and methods provide for separately storing first, second, third, and fourth photons, wherein the first and second photons and the third and fourth photons are respective first and second entangled photon pairs, triggering a synchronized retrieval of the stored first, second, third, and fourth photons such that the first photon is propagated to a first node, the second and third photons are propagated to a second node, and the fourth photon is propagated to a third node, and creating a new entangled pair comprising the first and fourth photons at the first and third nodes to transmit quantum information.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 8, 2023
    Publication date: December 28, 2023
    Applicants: THE RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK, QUNNECT, INC.
    Inventors: Eden Figueroa, Mehdi Namazi, Mael Flament, Sonali Gera
