 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

'The ability to transfer information between light and material memories and processors has led to a technological revolution in the way information is processed and communicated. Now scientists are going one step further by harnessing the coherent and reversible transfer of quantum information between matter and light, enabling the realization of a quantum memory for light. This will allow the realization of quantum information networks, which hold promise for revolutionary advances in information processing. Demonstrations of photonic quantum memories have been reported. Yet, with their limited properties, they can only be seen as proof of principle. The goal of this project is to turn quantum memories into a practical useful quantum device. The main scientific objective is to demonstrate ensemble based novel quantum light matter interfaces with enhanced capabilities and unprecedented properties. Two quantum physical systems will be investigated: solid state quantum memories implemented with rare-earth doped solids and cold atomic gases. These quantum memories will be used to explore new avenues in the quantum control of matter-matter entanglement. Progress beyond the state of the art will go along three ways: (1) the demonstration of long lived and robust entanglement between two remote solid state quantum memories. These systems will facilitate the scalability and integration in large scale quantum networks. (2) The demonstration of a quantum gate between two collective matter qubits stored in cold atomic ensembles. This requires the quantum control of single collective atomic Rydberg excitations. (3) The demonstration of entanglement between a solid state quantum memory and a cold atomic ensemble. This would provide the first example of entanglement between different quantum material objects and would pave the way towards hybrid quantum networks. These results will open new avenues towards the practical realization of scalable quantum networks and repeaters.'
