Information loss and run time from practical application of quantum data compression
Saahil Patel, Benjamin Collis, William Duong, Daniel Koch, Massimiliano Cutugno, Laura Wessing and Paul Alsing
We examine information loss, resource costs, and run time from practical application of quantum data compression. Compressing quantum data to fewer qubits enables efficient use of resources, as well as applications for quantum communication and denoising.

Connecting superconducting quantum processors to telecommunications-wavelength quantum networks is critically necessary to enable distributed quantum computing, secure communications, and other applications. Optically-mediated entanglement heralding protocols offer a near-term solution that can succeed with imperfect components, including sub-unity efficiency microwave-optical quantum transducers.

With the stability of integrated photonics at network nodes and the advantages of photons as flying qubits, photonic quantum information processing (PQIP) makes quantum networks increasingly scalable. However, scaling up PQIP requires the preparation of many identical single photons which is limited by the spectral distinguishability of integrated single-photon sources due to variations in fabrication or local environment.
Low-Crosstalk, Silicon-Fabricated Optical Waveguides for Laser Delivery to Matter Qubits
Clayton L. Craft, Nicholas J. Barton, Andrew C. Klug, Kenneth Scalzi, Ian Wildemann, Pramod Asagodu, Joseph D. Broz, Nikola L. Porto, Michael Macalik, Anthony Rizzo, Garrett Percevault, Christopher C. Tison, A. Matthew Smith, Michael L. Fanto, James Schneeloch, Erin Sheridan, Dylan Heberle...
Reliable control of quantum information in matter-based qubits requires precisely applied external fields, and unaccounted for spatial cross-talk of these fields between adjacent qubits leads to loss of fidelity. We report a CMOS foundry-produced, micro-fabricated silicon nitride (Si3N4) optical waveguide for addressing a chain of eight, unequally-spaced trapped barium ions with crosstalk compatible with scalable quantum information processing.
