Entanglement of distant quantum memories forms the building block of quantum networks. Neutral atoms with long coherence times are possible candidates for such a quantum network link and can be entangled via the entanglement swapping protocol. Our experiment consists of two nodes, currently 400 m apart, employing single optically trapped Rubidium-87 atoms as quantum memories. A new collection setup allows for an increased entanglement event rate of 1/6 Hz allowing a state analysis and reconstruction of the entangled state.
Here, we use quantum state tomography for the first time on atom-atom entanglement and evaluate the influence of different kind of experimental improvements on the fidelity of the entangled state. We introduce time-filtering, a method to increase the atom-atom entanglement fidelity. At the cost of events we reach a fidelity > 90% well suited for demanding tasks like device-independent QKD.
