Heralded Single-Magnon Quantum Memory for Photon Polarization States

We demonstrate a heralded quantum memory where a photon announces the mapping of a light polarization state onto a single collective-spin excitation (magnon) shared between two atomic ensembles. The magnon can be converted at a later time into a single polarized photon with polarization fidelity ove...
