• Abstract: Optically active solid-state spin qubits thrive as an appealing technology for quantum interconnect and quantum networking, owing to their atomic size, scalable creation, long-lived coherence, and ability to coherently interface with flying qubits. Trivalent erbium dopants in particular emerge as a compelling candidate with their telecom C band emission and shielded 4f intra-shell spin-optical transitions. However, prevailing top-down architecture for rare-earth qubits and devices has not allowed simultaneous long optical and spin coherence necessary for long-distance quantum networks. Here we demonstrate dual erbium telecom spin-photon interfaces in an epitaxial thin-film platform via wafer-scale bottom-up synthesis. Harnessing precise controls over the matrix purity, dopant placement, and symmetry unique to this platform, we simultaneously achieve millisecond erbium spin coherence time and $<$3 kilohertz optical dephasing rate in an inversion-symmetry protected site and realize both optical and microwave control in a fiber-integrated package for rapid scaling up. These results demonstrate a significant prospect for high-quality rare-earth qubits and quantum memories assembled using a bottom-up method and pave the way for the large-scale development of quantum light-matter interfaces for telecommunication quantum networks.

  We report on heralded entanglement between two independently operated quantum network nodes separated by 10km. We minimize the effects of fiber photon loss by quantum frequency conversion of the qubit-stabilized photons to the telecom L-band. We demonstrate the delivery of a predefined entangled state on the nodes irrespective of the heralding detection pattern.

  Tin-vacancy center (SnV) in diamond is a promising spin-photon interface with desirable optical and spin properties at 1.7 K. We introduce a new platform that overcomes these challenges - SnV centers in uniformly strained thin diamond membranes. The presence of crystal strain suppresses temperature dependent dephasing processes, leading to a considerable improvement of the coherence time up to 223 $mu$s at 4 K.

We show that EIT can be established with high visibility also in this material platform upon careful design of the measurement geometry. Our work provides an understanding of EIT in multi-level systems with significant inhomogeneities, and our considerations are valid for a wide array of defects in semiconductors.

  We propose and demonstrate an efficient method for entangling emitters with optical transitions separated by many linewidths. In our approach, electro-optic modulators enable a single photon to herald a parity measurement on a pair of spin qubits. Working with distinguishable emitters allows for individual qubit addressing and readout, enabling parallel control and entanglement of both co-located and spatially separated emitters.
