We have crossed a pivotal milestone: achieving entanglement rates above 1,000 per second (1 kHz) between a trapped ion qubit and a solid-state quantum memory, using a memory-enhanced photonic interconnect. Entanglement is the means by which separate quantum systems work together, and is the essenti…
