• Abstract summary: Quantum networks can distribute entanglement as a nonlocal communication resource. Here we demonstrate a complete and nondestructive measurement scheme that always projects any initial state of two spatially separated network nodes onto a maximally entangled state. In the future, our technique might serve to probe the decay of entanglement and to stabilise it against dephasing via repeated measurements.

• Abstract: One of the most fascinating aspects of quantum networks is their capability to distribute entanglement as a nonlocal communication resource. In a first step, this requires network-ready devices that can generate and store entangled states. Another crucial step, however, is to develop measurement techniques that allow for entanglement detection. Demonstrations for different platforms suffer from being either not complete, or destructive, or local. Here we demonstrate a complete and nondestructive measurement scheme that always projects any initial state of two spatially separated network nodes onto a maximally entangled state. Each node consists of an atom trapped inside an optical resonator from which two photons are successively reflected. Polarisation measurements on the photons discriminate between the four maximally entangled states. Remarkably, such states are not destroyed by our measurement. In the future, our technique might serve to probe the decay of entanglement and to stabilise it against dephasing via repeated measurements.

  We propose the use of collective states of matter as a resource for the deterministic generation of quantum states of light. Photon-mediated interactions between the emitters result in the emergence of bright and dark states. We demonstrate that sequential application of these gates leads to the generation of photonic entangled states.

  The flow of information as well as the percolation of entanglement in a network between the source and target node is an important area of study. In this article we investigate how the concurrence of the final entangled state is connected with the concurrences of the initial entangled states present in a 1-D chain. These results have tremendous future applications in sending quantum information between two quantum processors in remote entangled distribution.

  Quantum networking relies on entanglement distribution between distant nodes, typically realized by swapping procedures. Here we experimentally activate a remote distribution of two-photon polarization entanglement superseding the need for initial entangled pairs and traditional Bell-state measurements. This experiment proves that the inherent indistinguishability of identical particles supplies new standards for feasible quantum communication in multinode photonic quantum networks.
