Abstract The realization of quantum storage of spatial light field is of great significance to the construction of high-dimensional quantum repeater. In this paper, we experimentally realize the storage and retrieval of circular Airy beams (CABs) by using the $\varLambda $-type three-level energy system based on the electromagnetically induced transparency in a hot rubidium atomic vapor cell. The weak probe beam field is modulated with phase distribution of CABs by a spatial light modulator. We store the probe circular Airy beam (CAB) into the rubidium atomic vapor cell and retrieve it after the demanded delay. We quantitatively analyze the storage results and give corresponding theoretical explanations. Moreover, we investigate the autofocusing and self-healing effect of the retrieved CAB, which indicates that the properties and beam shape of CAB maintain well after storage. Our work will have potential applications in the storage of high-dimensional quantum information, and is also useful for improving the channel capacities of quantum internet.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
