Quantum memories for single photons are a key component of quantum repeaters for sattelite-based quantum communication over long distances [1,2]. Memories on sattelites for feasible quantum repeater networks must be compact, maintainable and scalable. Reliable storage and retrieval of photons on demand would make a significant contribution to memory assisted quantum key distribution.
We present a compact, rack-mounted, stand-alone warm vapor quantum memory based on electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) on the Cs D1 line at 895 nm [3]. This mobile setup realizes high fidelity light storage at single photon level with minimal readout noise level.
