Quantum networks connecting quantum processing nodes via photonic links enable distributed and modular quantum computation. In this framework, quantum gates between remote qubits can be realized using quantum teleportation protocols. The essential requirements for such non-local gates are remote entanglement, local quantum logic within each processor, and classical communication between nodes to perform operations based on measurement outcomes. Here, we demonstrate an unconditional Controlled-NOT quantum gate between remote diamond-based qubit devices. The control and target qubits are Carbon-13 nuclear spins, while NV electron spins enable local logic, readout, and remote entanglement generation. We benchmark the system by creating a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state, showing genuine 4-partite entanglement shared between nodes. Using deterministic logic, single-shot readout, and real-time feed-forward, we implement non-local gates without post-selection. These results demonstrate a key capability for solid-state quantum networks, enabling exploration of distributed quantum computing and testing of complex network protocols on full-stack systems.

Solid-state quantum registers consisting of optically active electron spins with nearby nuclear spins are promising building blocks for future quantum technologies. For electron spin-1 registers, dynamical decoupling (DD) quantum gates have been developed that enable the precise control of multiple nuclear spin qubits. However, for the important class of electron spin-1/2 systems, this control method suffers from intrinsic selectivity limitations, resulting in reduced nuclear spin gate fidelities. Here, we demonstrate improved control of single nuclear spins by an electron spin-1/2 using dynamically decoupled radio-frequency (DDRF) gates. We make use of the electron spin-1/2 of a diamond tin-vacancy center, showing high-fidelity single-qubit gates, single-shot readout, and spin coherence beyond a millisecond. The DD control is used as a benchmark to observe and control a single 31C nuclear spin. Using the DDRF control method, we demonstrate improved control on that spin. In addition, we find and control an additional nuclear spin that is insensitive to the DD control method. Using these DDRF gates, we show entanglement between the electron and the nuclear spin with 72(3)% state fidelity. Our extensive simulations indicate that DDRF gate fidelities well in excess are feasible. Finally, we employ time-resolved photon detection during readout to quantify the hyperfine coupling for the electron's optically excited state. Our work provides key insights into the challenges and opportunities for nuclear spin control in electron spin-1/2 systems, opening the door to multiqubit experiments on these promising qubit platforms.

Striving toward a scalable quantum processor, this article presents the first cryo-CMOS quantum bit (qubit) controller targeting color centers in diamond. Color-center qubits enable a modular architecture that allows for the 3-D integration of photonics, cryo-CMOS control electronics, and qubits in the same package. However, performing quantum operations in a scalable manner requires large currents in the driving coils due to low coil-to-qubit coupling. Moreover, active calibration of the qubit Larmor frequency is required to compensate inhomogeneities of the bias magnetic field. To overcome these challenges, this work proposes both a cryo-CMOS alternating current (AC) controller consisting of a class-DE series-resonant driver and a DC current regulator (DC CR) that uses a triode-biased H-bridge for scalable low-power qubit operations. By experimentally validating the cryo-CMOS performance with a nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color-center qubit, the AC controller can drive a Rabi oscillation up to 2.5 MHz with a supply draw of 6.5 mA, and the DC CR can tune the Larmor frequency by ±9 MHz while driving up to ±20 mA in the bias coil. T ^∗ ₂ coherence times up to 5.3μs and single-qubit gate fidelities above 98% are demonstrated with the cryo-CMOS control using Ramsey experiments and gate set tomography (GST), respectively. The results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed cryo-CMOS chips and enable the development of a modular quantum processor based on color centers.

We discuss measurements on single NV centers in isotopically purified diamond and show coherent optical transitions combined with enhanced electron and carbon spin coherence. These results open avenues for new quantum network applications.

We realize high-fidelity gates for the two-qubit system formed by NV center. Using gate set tomography, we report gate fidelities exceeding 99%, and analyze the origin of the errors.
