The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond and other solid-state defect centers hold great potential for constructing quantum networks. NV centers can be remotely connected through entanglement via photonic links. Furthermore, by utilizing the electronic spin of the NV center to control associated nuclear spins, a small multi-qubit register can be formed. However, reliably storing entangled states while generating new entanglement links poses a significant challenge when scaling towards large networks. In this study, we propose a method that utilizes spectator qubits to mitigate noise on stored quantum states in real time. We consider a single NV center with multiple nuclear-spin qubits, and some nuclear spins are selected as spectator qubits that are not entangled with other nuclear spins serving as data qubits. The spectator qubits are initialized in a phase-sensitive state, and measuring them after sequences of optical entanglement attempts allows us to infer the stochastic phases acquired by the data qubits without additional operations on them. The spectator qubit approach is flexible and simple, and our experiments demonstrate that spectator qubits may be a useful tool for realizing robust quantum-network nodes.
