Quantum networks with neutral atom processing nodes

Abstract Quantum networks providing shared entanglement over a mesh of quantum nodes will revolutionize the field information science by offering novel applications in computation, enhanced precision sensors and clocks, efficient communication large distances. Recent experimental progress with individual neutral atoms demonstrates high potential for implementing crucial components such networks. We highlight latest developments near-term prospects on how arrays individually controlled are suited both remote generation large-scale processing, thereby necessary features sharing high-fidelity error-corrected multi-qubit entangled states between nodes. describe functionality requirements several examples advanced, composed atom processing
