Optical quantum memory is a device that can store the quantum state of photons and retrieve it with high fidelity on demand. Many approaches to quantum memory have been proposed and demonstrated. Quantum memory can be used to enhance performance in many
This manual describes an implementation of optimal Bayesian experimental design methods. These methods address routine measurements where data are fit to experimental models in order to obtain model parameters. The twin benefits of these methods are

As quantum information processors (QIPs) grow more sophisticated, characterizing their behavior becomes harder. Larger QIPs have more properties that need to be characterized, and inventing a new quantum characterization, verification, and validation (QCVV

Silicon photonics enables the integration of multi-functional quantum networks on a chip. Inclusion of quantum emitters acting as on-demand single-photon source or photon non-linearity is highly desirable to boost scalability and functionality. Towards

An ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) compatible Penning ion source for growing pure, highly enriched 28Si epitaxial thin films is presented. Enriched 28Si is a critical material for quantum information due to the elimination of nuclear spins and, in some cases, must

Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in a nonlinear crystal has been a workhorse for the generation of entangled and correlated single-photon pairs used for quantum communications applications for nearly three decades. However, as a naturally
We implement a cascaded interface connecting three essential frequencies for quantum communications including 1540-nm for long-distance transmission, 895-nm for Cesium quantum memory and 369-nm for Ytterbium ion quantum computing applications.

It is an open question how fast information processing can be performed and whether quantum effects can speed up the best existing solutions. Signal extraction, analysis, and compression in diagnostics, astronomy, chemistry, and broadcasting build on the

Nonreciprocal microwave devices play critical roles in high-fidelity, quantum-nondemolition (QND) measurement schemes. They impose unidirectional routing of readout signals and protect the quantum systems from unwanted noise originated by the output chain
