Abstract
In quantum information science, photons are the best candidate for transmitting information, and atoms are the best candidate for storing information. The combination of these two systems provides a fascinating future for practical applications of the quantum information concepts. The work presented in this thesis mainly consists of two parts. The first part is about manipulation of entangled photons, including the demonstration of a nondestructive CNOT gate, the creation of narrowband entangled photons through cavity-enhanced spontaneous parametric down-conversion, and the realization of interference between narrowband photon sources. The second part is about manipulation of atomic ensembles. The main purpose for this part is to extend the quantum communication distance using the concept of quantum repeater. Within this part, the experimental work includes, the extension of storage lifetime of quantum memories to 1 ms by increasing the wavelength of stored spinwave, the realization of entanglement assisted spinwave interferometer, the demonstration of efficient entanglement swapping with quantum memories, and the realization of quantum teleportation between atomic ensembles.
