- Abstract: We present a demonstration of simultaneous high-efficiency, high-speed, and
low-noise operation of a photonic quantum memory. By leveraging controllable
collisional dephasing in a neutral barium atomic vapor, we demonstrate a
significant improvement in memory efficiency and bandwidth over existing
techniques. We achieve greater than 95% storage efficiency and 26% total
efficiency of 880 GHz bandwidth photons, with $\mathcal{O}(10^{-5})$ noise
photons per retrieved pulse. These ultrabroad bandwidths enable rapid quantum
information processing and contribute to the development of practical quantum
memories with potential applications in quantum communication, computation, and
networking.

We store weak coherent pulses at the single photon level with up to 62% efficiency for a pre-determined storage time of 2 $mu$s.

Multi-photon interference is at the heart of photonic quantum technologies.
Here, we experimentally demonstrate that detection can be implemented with a temporal resolution sufficient to interfere photons detuned on the scales necessary for cavity-based integrated photon sources.
We show how time-resolved detection of non-ideal photons can be used to improve the fidelity of an entangling operation and to mitigate the reduction of computational complexity in boson sampling experiments.
