Long-distance entanglement generation with scalable and robust two-dimensional quantum network
arXiv:1202.4077 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.85.062330
Abstract
We present a protocol for generating entanglement over long distances in a two-dimensional quantum network based on the surface error-correction code. This protocol requires a fixed number of quantum memories at each node of the network and tolerates error rates of up to 1.67% in the quantum channels.
