Quantum memory for microwave photons in an inhomogeneously broadened
spin ensemble

Brian Julsgaard, Cécile Grezes, Patrice Bertet, Klaus Mølmer
We propose a multi-mode quantum memory protocol able to store the quantum state of the field in a microwave resonator into an ensemble of electronic spins. The stored information is protected against inhomogeneous broadening of the spin ensemble by spin-echo techniques resulting in memory times orders of magnitude longer than previously achieved. By calculating the evolution of the first and second moments of the spin-cavity system variables for realistic experimental parameters, we show that a memory based on NV center spins in diamond can store a qubit encoded on the |0> and |1> Fock states of the field with 80% fidelity.
