Transduction-enabled superconducting quantum repeater: Toward deterministic entanglement distribution with high-fidelity gates
Long-distance entanglement distribution is hindered by photon loss in optical fibers and the nocloning theorem. Optical quantum repeater (QR) protocols rely on Bell state measurements (BSMs), they are intrinsically limited to probabilistic photon operations and fail 50% of the time. We propose a hybrid approach to buil...
