Decades of excessive research have proven the key towards a quantum advantage of quantum computing compared to classical computers is the scalability of the quantum processor. In analogy to classical super computing clusters we propose a network of small interconnected trapped-ion-based quantum processors to achieve flexibly scalable quantum computing.

In detail, a fibre-based Fabry-Pérot cavity integrated in an ion-trap provides an efficient ion-photon interface. This enables entanglement of ion-qubits in spatially separated traps at a high frequency, and therefore distributed computing in a network of ion-based quantum processors.

Being per se platform-independent, the concept is firstly demonstrated connecting a room-temperature blade trap and a cryogenic blade trap. A novel blade-integrated design of the fibre-cavity ensures plenty of free-space access for cooling and operation lasers. To cope with accumulating charges in the dielectric glass-fibres, disturbing the trapping field, an in-house designed conductive coating applied to the fibres circumvents these effects.
