Quantum networks: from the quantum internet to the brain
Christoph Simon · 2023
I will give my personal perspective on recent progress in quantum networks and quantum communication, including some mentions of efforts towards distributed quantum computing. In this context of moving towards a global 'quantum internet', I will discuss some of our own recent work on quantum repeaters, quantum memories, quantum transducers, and sources of entanglement. I will discuss approaches to the quantum internet involving satellites. Finally I will also briefly talk about our work on the question whether there could be quantum networks in our brains.
