Heralded entanglement between error-protected logical qubits for fault-tolerant distributed quantum computing

扫码查看
Quantum error correction is essential for achieving reliable quantum information processing tasks,as it can mitigate the detri-mental effects of noise by encoding single-qubit information into a larger quantum system.However,the generation of distributed entanglement between logical qubits located within two spatially separated nodes presents a significant resource-intensive chal-lenge that has yet to be overcome.Here we present a heralded protocol for generating distributed entanglement between two nonlocal error-protected logical qubits.A high-dimensional single photon can evolve physical qubits into a logical qubit that entangles with the photon and then converts logical qubit-photon entanglement into entanglement between two logical qubits,when the photon state is properly tuned and an effective photon-spin interface between single photons and individual spins is exploited.Furthermore,the success of the entanglement generation is heralded by the detection of the photon,and the corre-sponding efficiency can,in principle,approach unity.These distinguished features make our protocol highly appealing for future large-scale quantum technologies.
