Building heterogenous quantum-dot–atom repeaters: photon generation, storage and conversion for quantum networks

The University of Manchester

Department of Physics and Astronomy

Long-distance quantum communication is limited by photon loss in optical fibre. Heterogeneous quantum repeaters that combine deterministic III–V quantum-dot (QD) sources with room-temperature alkali-vapour memories offer a practical route to high-rate, fibre-compatible networks (Zajac et al., arXiv:2503.13775).
