Quantum Entanglement Swapping Node

Technical Explanation

Photons carrying quantum information cannot be amplified using conventional electronic or optical amplifiers without destroying their delicate quantum state (no-cloning theorem), limiting single-hop fiber transmission to ~100 km. The Quantum Entanglement Swapping Node performs Bell-state quantum measurements on independent entangled photon pairs. By performing entanglement swapping, it teleports quantum entanglement across thousands of kilometers of fiber, creating a global Quantum Internet.

Key Functions

• Distributes quantum entanglement across continental distances without classical repeaters
• Performs Bell-state quantum measurements on entangled optical photon pairs
• Forms the foundational routing building block of the future Quantum Internet
• Enables distributed quantum cloud computing and unconditional secure communications
