Light storage by electromagnetically induced transparency for one second at the level of a single photon in prepared with multiple frequency ensembles

Efficient and long-term storage of quantum information encoded in single photons is crucial for applications of optical quantum technologies, e.g. quantum repeaters in communication networks. Obviously, the maximal storage time is an important benchmark for such memories, as it defines the distances...
