Experimental Realization of Multi-Granularity Quantum Switch Node

We propose a novel multi-granularity quantum switch node architecture aiming at enhancing the flexibility and reducing the size of optical cross-connect in Quantum networks. With acceptable attenuation costs, we exhibit stable and efficient operation for 24 hours. The result shows that the proposed...

Summary:We propose a novel multi-granularity quantum switch node architecture aiming at enhancing the flexibility and reducing the size of optical cross-connect in Quantum networks. With acceptable attenuation costs, we exhibit stable and efficient operation for 24 hours. The result shows that the proposed architecture has great practical value.
