Abstract ：Multi-mode quantum memory is a basic element required for long-distance quantum communication, as well as scalable quantum computation. For on-demand readout and long storage times, control pulses are crucial in order to transfer atomic excitations back and forth into spin excitations. Here, we introduce noise-robust composite pulse sequences for high-fidelity excitation transfer in multi-mode quantum memory. These pulses are robust to the deviations in amplitude and the detuning parameters of realistic conditions. We show the efficiency of these composite pulses with a typical rare-earth ion-doped system. This approach could be applied to a variety of quantum memory schemes.
