Entanglement of remote solid-state qubits in diamond

Entanglement generation between remote quantum emitters is of great interest for many applications such as long distance quantum communications [1]. In particular, entanglement of two quantum emitters embedded in a solid state matrix is an attractive candidate due to the system's potential scalability. We will present our results for entangling the electronic spins of two Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers in diamond that are spatially separated by 2 meters. \\[4pt] [1] H.J.
