• Abstract: Practical realizations of quantum repeaters require quantum memory simultaneously providing high retrieval efficiency, long lifetime and multimode storages. So far, the combination of high retrieval efficiency and spatially multiplexed storages into a single memory remains challenging. Here, we set up a ring cavity that supports an array including 6 TEM00 modes and then demonstrated cavity enhanced and spatially multiplexed spin wave photon quantum interface (QI). The cavity arrangement is according to Fermat' optical theorem, which enables the six modes to experience the same optical length per round trip. Each mode includesn horizontal and vertical polarizations. Via DLCZ process in a cold atomic ensemble, we create non classically correlated pairs of spin waves and Stokes photons in the 12 modes. The retrieved fields from the multiplexed SWs are enhanced by the cavity and the average intrinsic retrieval efficiency reaches 70% at zero delay. The storage time for the case that cross-correlation function of the multiplexed QI is beyond 2 reaches 0.6ms .

• Storage of photonic time-bin qubits for up to 20 ms in a rare-earth doped crystal [0.0]
  Long-duration quantum memories for photonic qubits are essential components for achieving long-distance quantum networks and repeaters. In this work, we apply dynamical decoupling techniques and a small magnetic field to achieve the storage of six temporal modes for 20, 50 and 100 ms in a crystal. The quantum coherence of the memory is verified by storing two time-bin qubits for 20 ms, with an average memory output fidelity of $F=(85pm 2)%$ for an average number of photons per qubit of $mu_textin$ = 0.92$pm$0.04

  spatial modes of light provide a high-dimensional space that can be used to encode both classical and quantum information. Current approaches for dynamically generating and measuring these modes are slow, due to the need to reconfigure a high-resolution phase mask. We experimentally realize this approach, using a double-pass AOM to generate one of five orbital angular momentum states. We are able to reconstruct arbitrary states in under 1 ms with an average fidelity of 96.9%.
