Unconditional entanglement interface for quantum networks (1510.00603v2)

Abstract: Entanglement drives nearly all proposed quantum information technologies. By up-converting part of a 1550 nm two-mode squeezed vacuum state to 532 nm, we demonstrate the generation of strong continuous-variable entanglement between widely separated frequencies. Nonclassical correlations were observed in joint quadrature measurements of the 1550 and 532 nm fields, showing a maximum noise suppression 5.5 dB below vacuum. Our versatile technique combines strong nonclassical correlations, large bandwidth, and in principle, the ability to entangle the telecommunication wavelength of 1550 nm with any optical wavelength.
