Deterministic quantum state transfer and remote entanglement using microwave photons

Sharing information over computer networks for private, business or science-related communication is part of our everyday lives. In the future, we may use protocols based on quantum physics to realize secure communication or to perform distributed quantum information processing exceeding the capabilities of classical computers and communication networks. In our work, we take a key step toward a future quantum network by realizing a fully deterministic quantum communication protocol between two remote superconducting quantum circuits.

Single-Shot Quantum Non-Demolition Detection of Individual Itinerant Microwave Photons

Information is often transmitted using electromagnetic radiation, the quantum units of which are photons. In the microwave regime, detecting single itinerant photons at the receiving end of a transmission channel is challenging since microwave photons possess 5 orders of magnitude less energy than their optical counterparts.
