The uncertainty principle, first introduced by Heisenberg in inertial frames, clearly distinguishes quantum theories from classical mechanics. In noninertial frames, its information-theoretic expressions, namely, entropic uncertainty relations, have been extensively studied through delocalized quantum fields, and localization of the quantum fields were discussed as well. However, infeasibility of measurements applied on a delocalized quantum field due to the finite size of measurement apparatuses is left unexplained. Therefore, physical clarification of a quantum protocol revealing entropic uncertainty relations still needs investigation. Building on advances in quantum field theories and theoretical developments in entropic uncertainty relations, we demonstrate a relativistic protocol of an uncertainty game in the presence of localized fermionic quantum fields inside cavities. Moreover, a novel lower bound for entropic uncertainty relations with multiple quantum memories is given in terms of the Holevo quantity, which implies how acceleration affects uncertainty relations.

We propose a quantum repeater architecture that can operate under ambient conditions. Our proposal builds on recent progress towards non-cryogenic spin-photon interfaces based on nitrogen-vacancy centers, which have excellent spin coherence times even at room temperature, and optomechanics, which allows to avoid phonon-related decoherence and also allows the emitted photons to be in the telecom band. We apply the photon number decomposition method to quantify the fidelity and the efficiency of entanglement established between two remote electron spins. We describe how the entanglement can be stored in nuclear spins and extended to long distances via quasi-deterministic entanglement swapping operations involving the electron and nuclear spins. We furthermore propose schemes to achieve high-fidelity readout of the spin states at room temperature using the spin-optomechanics interface. Our work shows that long-distance quantum networks made of solid-state components that operate at room temperature are within reach of current technological capabilities.
