Image of the Fluorescence from 4 Atomic Ensembles

Caption

In the Caltech experiment, these four ensembles of atoms serve as four spatially distinct quantum memories that globally store an entangled quantum state. The Caltech researchers demonstrate the coherent read out of the entangled state of the atomic memories to an entangled state for separate four beams of light.
