  Counterfactual quantum communication is one of the most interesting facets of
quantum communication, allowing two parties to communicate without any
transmission of quantum or classical particles between the parties involved in
the communication process. This aspect of quantum communication originates from
the interaction-free measurements where the chained quantum Zeno effect plays
an important role. Here, we propose a new counterfactual quantum communication
protocol for transmitting an entangled state from a pair of electrons to two
independent photons. Interestingly, the protocol proposed here shows that the
counterfactual method can be employed to transfer information from house qubits
to flying qubits. Following this, we show that the protocol finds uses in
building quantum repeaters leading to a counterfactual quantum network,
enabling counterfactual communication over a linear quantum network.
