Abstract

A packaged quantum memory device is described. The packaged quantum memory device comprises both quantum memories and quantum memory control devices within an outer package, such that the unit may be shipped, installed, and operated without opening the outer package to tune and/or operate the quantum memories. Optical and electrical control signals may be received from, or provided to, the internal components of the packaged quantum memory device via electrical and/or optical ports located on an outer package layer, and routed to the quantum memories via respective quantum memory control devices. Various electrical, optical, mechanical, and/or spin-related properties of the quantum memories may be tuned using the quantum memory control devices, as well as the local temperature and gas environments around the quantum memories. The packaged quantum memory device may be installed within a cryogenic cooling device, as a unit, and operated via the electrical and optical ports.
