Abstract:
Scalable quantum networks require quantum repeaters to overcome major challenges such as photon loss and decoherence in long-distance quantum communication. In this paper, we present a cavity-magnon quantum repeater architecture that exploits the frequency tunability and hybrid integration capabilities of magnonic platforms to enable efficient entanglement swapping across multi-hop networks. The coherence budget is explicitly incorporated via the dissipation and dephasing terms in our noise model, which sets the effective entanglement-storage window available for multi-hop swapping. Through comprehensive numerical simulations with realistic experimental parameters, we analyze system performance across diverse deployment scenarios and network scales, examining both short-range and long-distance implementations. We identify critical factors influencing performance and scalability, demonstrating that cavity-magnon systems represent a viable and promising quantum repeater platform with significant integration advantages over existing quantum memory technologies.
