Description

We present the latest developments of the Fermilab and the Advanced Quantum Networks experiments. These operating quantum networks, with deployed infrastructure spanning the Chicagoland metropolitan and beyond which include nodes at Fermilab, Northwestern University, The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Caltech, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and Argonne National Labs. The deployed network infrastructure and results includes links spanning more than 50 km, have achieved record quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping fidelities using time-bin photonics qubits with the existing fiber optics infrastructure. We will focus on new world-leading results on teleportation of entanglement protocol implementations with many implications to quantum communication and HEP science. We will discuss a program to increase the information rate and distances as well as to realize more complex protocols and how the existing network infrastructure including the classical backbone with a record timing synchronization below 3 ps can enable distributed sensing experiments with HEP applications.
