- Abstract
We review concepts and recent work related to creating light-matter interfaces for future quantum networks based on rare-earth ion-doped crystals. More precisely, we explore their unique suitability for creating photon sources, optical quantum memories for light, and qubits that allow quantum information processing. In addition, we review the state-of-the-art of elementary quantum repeater links, and provide suggestions for future research.
