• Abstract summary: We entangle each individual matter-qubit in a register of ten to a separate travelling photon. An average ion-photon Bell state fidelity of 92(1)% is achieved, for an average probability for detecting each single photon of 9.1(8)%. The technique is directly scalable to larger ion-qubit registers and opens up the near-term possibility of entangling distributed networks of trapped-ion quantum processors, sensing arrays and clocks.

• Abstract: We entangle each individual matter-qubit in a register of ten to a separate travelling photon. The qubits are encoded in a string of cotrapped atomic ions. By switching the trap confinement, ions are brought one at a time into the waist of an optical cavity and emit a photon via a laser-driven cavity-mediated Raman transition. The result is a train of photonic-qubits, each near-maximally entangled by their polarisation with a different ion-qubit in the string. An average ion-photon Bell state fidelity of 92(1)% is achieved, for an average probability for detecting each single photon of 9.1(8)%. The technique is directly scalable to larger ion-qubit registers and opens up the near-term possibility of entangling distributed networks of trapped-ion quantum processors, sensing arrays and clocks.

  Trapped ions are one of the leading candidates for scalable and long-distance quantum networks. One method for creating ion-photon entanglement is to exploit optically transitions from the P_(1/2) to S_(1/2) levels. We use a two-stage quantum frequency conversion scheme to achieve a frequency shift of 375.4 THz between the input visible photon and the output telecom photon.

  We report high-fidelity state readout of a trapped ion qubit using a trap-integrated photon detector. Average readout fidelity is 0.9991(1) with a mean readout duration of 46 $mu$s. Because there are no intervening optical elements between the ion and the detector, we can use the ion fluorescence as a self-calibrated photon source to determine the detector quantum efficiency and its dependence on photon incidence angle and polarization.
