Abstract: The present disclosure relates to active cancellation of frequency noise in lasers. One example embodiment includes a device. The device includes an optical cavity exhibiting a resonant optical frequency. The device also includes a laser. An output of the laser is locked to the resonant optical frequency. A first portion of the laser output is transmitted through the optical cavity to filter out high-frequency noise from the first portion of the laser output to generate a modified signal. Additionally, the device includes an acousto-optic modulator configured to generate a reference signal. Further, the device includes a feedforward circuit configured to receive a first portion of the reference signal and generate a feedforward signal. In addition, the device includes an electro-optic modulator configured to interfere a second portion of the reference signal with a second portion of the modified signal using the feedforward signal to generate an output signal.

Abstract: The disclosure includes a multiplexed telecommunication-band quantum network that utilizes atomic arrays in optical cavities. An example quantum networking system includes at least one quantum repeater node. The quantum repeater node includes an array of neutral atoms disposed in an optical cavity and a fiber-optic switch (FOS). The FOS is optically coupled to the optical cavity. The quantum repeater node also includes at least one beamsplitter. The at least one beamsplitter is optically coupled to the FOS.
