Entanglement transfer during quantum frequency conversion in gas-filled hollow-core fibers

Quantum transduction is essential for the future hybrid quantum networks, connecting devices across different spectral ranges. In this regard, molecular modulation in hollow-core fibers has proven to be exceptional for efficient and tunable frequency conversion of arbitrary light fields down to the...

In this regard, molecular modulation in hollow-core fibers has proven to be exceptional for efficient and tunable frequency conversion of arbitrary light fields down to the single-photon limit. However, insights on this conversion method for quantum light have remained elusive beyond standard semiclassical models. In this Letter, we employ a quantum Hamiltonian framework to characterize the behavior of entanglement during molecular modulation, while describing the quantum dynamics of both molecules and photons in agreement with recent experiments. In particular, apart from obtaining analytical expressions for the final opto-molecular states, our model predicts a close correlation between the evolution of the average photon numbers and the transfer of entanglement between the interacting parties. These results will contribute to the development of new fiber-based strategies to tackle the challenges associated with the upcoming generation of lightwave quantum technologies.We acknowledge financial support from HORIZON-CL4-2022-QUANTUM01-SGA project 101113946 OpenSuperQ-Plus100 of the EU Flagship on Quantum Technologies, the Spanish Ramón y Cajal Grant RYC-2020-030503-I, project Grants No. PID2021-125823NA-I00, PID2021-123131NA-I00, PID2021-122505OBC31 and TED2021-129959B-C21, funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by “ERDF A way of making Europe”, by “ERDF Invest in your Future”, by the “European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR” and "ESF+", from the Basque Government through Grants No. IT1470-22 and IT1455-22 and ELKARTEK ($\mu$4Smart-KK-2023/00016, Ekohegaz II-KK-2023/00051, and KUBIT KK-2024/00105), and from the IKUR Strategy under the collaboration agreement between Ikerbasque Foundation and BCAM on behalf of the Department of Education of the Basque Government and the grant IKUR\_IKA\_23/04.
