We propose two setups for realizing a chiral quantum network, where two-levelsystems representing the nodes interact via directional emission into discretewaveguides, as introduced in T. Ramos et al. [Phys. Rev. A 93, 062104 (2016)].The first implementation realizes a spin waveguide via Rydberg states in achain of atoms, whereas the second one realizes a phonon waveguide via thelocalized vibrations of a string of trapped ions. For both architectures, weshow that strong chirality can be obtained by a proper design of syntheticgauge fields in the couplings from the nodes to the waveguide. In the Rydbergcase, this is achieved via intrinsic spin-orbit coupling in the dipole-dipoleinteractions, while for the trapped ions it is obtained by engineered sidebandtransitions. We take long-range couplings into account that appear naturally inthese implementations, discuss useful experimental parameters, and analyzepotential error sources. Finally, we describe effects that can be observed inthese implementations within state-of-the-art technology, such as thedriven-dissipative formation of entangled dimer states.
