Abstract

We propose a parallel protocol for implementing distributed nonlocal quantum gates between spatially separated stationary qubits encoded in dual-species quantum emitters (i.e., color-center and superconducting qubits). By utilizing entangled photon pairs with distinct frequencies as a quantum data bus, our approach connects spatially separated devices without requiring quantum frequency conversion or preshared entanglement, while maintaining an always-ready and resource-efficient property for distributed quantum computing and networks. Furthermore, we demonstrate the feasibility of implementing parallel distributed nonlocal quantum gates on multiple pairs of spatially separated qubits using a single high-dimensional entangled photon pair, which directly benefits from the enhanced quantum capacity provided by optical qudit encoding. Our protocol establishes a scalable and practically implementable framework for distributed quantum networks, potentially enabling the development of future large-scale quantum computing architectures.
