Quantum teleportation from telecom photons to erbium-ion ensembles

Caption

The group of Prof. Xiao-Song Ma at Nanjing University has demonstrated the faithful teleportation from telecom photons to erbium-ion based quantum memory. The key elements for this achievement are the combination of telecom-wavelength photons carrying initial quantum states (Input state) with efficient generation of entangled photons from an integrated microring resonator (EPR-Source) and long storage time in an ensemble of erbium ions doped in a YSO crystal (Quantum memory, Er:YSO).
