• Abstract summary: Two novel lattice surgery-based protocols are introduced to establish logical Bell states between distant nodes. In the local protocol, the intermediary node creates and directly transmits the logical Bell states to quantum memories. The non-local protocol distributes auxiliary Bell states, merging boundaries between pre-existing codes in the quantum memories.

• Abstract: This study explores the feasibility of utilizing quantum error correction (QEC) to generate and store logical Bell states in heralded quantum entanglement protocols, crucial for quantum repeater networks. Two novel lattice surgery-based protocols (local and non-local) are introduced to establish logical Bell states between distant nodes using an intermediary node. In the local protocol, the intermediary node creates and directly transmits the logical Bell states to quantum memories. In contrast, the non-local protocol distributes auxiliary Bell states, merging boundaries between pre-existing codes in the quantum memories. We simulate the protocols using realistic experimental parameters, including cavity-enhanced atomic frequency comb quantum memories and multimode fiber-optic noisy channels. The study evaluates rotated and planar surface codes alongside Bacon-Shor codes for small code distances $(d = 3, 5)$ under standard and realistic noise models. We observe pseudo-thresholds, indicating that when physical error rates exceed approximately $p_{\text{err}} \sim 10^{-3}$, QEC codes do not provide any benefit over using unencoded Bell states. Moreover, to achieve an advantage over unencoded Bell states for a distance of $1 \, \mathrm{km}$ between the end node and the intermediary, gate error rates must be reduced by an order of magnitude $(0.1p_{\text{err}_H}$, $0.1p_{\text{err}_{CX}}$, and $0.1p_{\text{err}_M}$), highlighting the need for significant hardware improvements to implement logical Bell state protocols with quantum memories. Finally, both protocols were analyzed for their achieved rates, with the non-local protocol showing higher rates, ranging from $6.64 \, \mathrm{kHz}$ to $1.91 \, \mathrm{kHz}$, over distances of $1$ to $9 \, \mathrm{km}$ between the end node and the intermediary node.

For every quantum channel $T$ and every $eps>0$ there exists a threshold $p(epsilon,T)$ for the gate error probability below which rates larger than $C-epsilon$ are fault-tolerantly achievable. Our results are relevant in communication over large distances, and also on-chip, where distant parts of a quantum computer might need to communicate under higher levels of noise.
