Abstract
Quantum teleportation allows to transfer the quantum state of a particle to a remote location without sending the particle itself. This makes it a versatile tool for the distribution of quantum states over long distances or the remote preparation of quantum memories as they are necessary in various scenarios of quantum information processing and quantum communication. In this context atomic systems are often discussed as promising candidates for the storage and manipulation of qubit states whereas photonic qubit states are easy to prepare and to distribute. Hybrid systems of entangled atom-photon pairs can serve as an interface between those different carriers of quantum information. We utilize this property to perform teleportation of the polarization state of an attenuated laser pulse onto a single atom over a distance of 20m.
