• Abstract: The faithful distribution of entanglement over noisy channels is a vital prerequisite for many quantum technological applications. Quantum information can be encoded in different degrees of freedom (DOF) of photons, where each encoding comes with its own advantages and disadvantages with respect to noise resilience and practicality in manipulation. In this work, we experimentally implement a deterministic entanglement purification protocol that allows us to faithfully distribute entanglement in one DOF over a noisy channel and then remotely transfer it to another DOF for manipulation. In particular, we distribute robust energy-time entanglement and transfer it to polarization entanglement at the communicating parties. The remotely obtained polarization state is independent of the polarization noise during distribution and reaches fidelities to a Bell state of up to 97.6%. Our scheme enables robust and efficient polarization entanglement distribution in the presence of arbitrary polarization noise, which is relevant for future large-scale quantum networks.

We use relaxed phase matching of flat nonlinear optical sources to generate photon pairs with tunable polarization entanglement. In combination with the broadband frequency spectrum, it results in an ultranarrow (12 fs) Hong-Ou-Mandel effect and promises extensions to hyperentanglement.

  We consider the quantum polar code construction using the same channel combining and splitting procedure as in [1], but with a fixed two-qubit Clifford unitary.

We present a quantum polar code exploiting the multilevel nature of polarization, and provide an efficient decoding for this code.
