    • Coherent control of diamond defects for quantum information science and quantum sensing 

      Maurer, Peter (2014-06-06)
      Quantum mechanics, arguably one of the greatest achievements of modern physics, has not only fundamentally changed our understanding of nature but is also taking an ever increasing role in engineering. Today, the control ...

    • Far-Field Optical Imaging and Manipulation of Individual Spins with Nanoscale Resolution 

      Maurer, Peter; Maze, J. R.; Stanwix, P. L.; Jiang, L.; Gorshkov, Alexey Vyacheslavovich; Zibrov, A. A.; Harke, B.; Hodges, J. S.; Zibrov, Alexander S; Yacoby, Amir; Twitchen, D.; Hell, S. W.; Walsworth, Ronald Lee; Lukin, Mikhail D. (Nature Publishing Group, 2010)
      A fundamental limit to existing optical techniques for measurementand manipulation of spin degrees of freedom is set by diffraction, which does not allow spins separated by less than about a quarter of a micrometre to be ...

    • Nanometre-scale thermometry in a living cell 

      Kucsko, Georg; Maurer, Peter; Yao, Norman Ying; KUBO, MICHAEL; Noh, Hyungi; Lo, P. K.; Park, Hongkun; Lukin, Mikhail D. (Nature Publishing Group, 2013)
      Sensitive probing of temperature variations on nanometre scales is an outstanding challenge in many areas of modern science and technology. In particular, a thermometer capable of subdegree temperature resolution over a ...

    • Repetitive Readout of a Single Electronic Spin via Quantum Logic with Nuclear Spin Ancillae 

      Jiang, Liang; Hodges, J. S.; Maze, J. R.; Maurer, Peter; Taylor, J. M.; Cory, D. G.; Hemmer, P. R.; Walsworth, Ronald Lee; Yacoby, Amir; Zibrov, Alexander S; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2009)
      Robust measurement of single quantum bits plays a key role in the realization of quantum computation and communication as well as in quantum metrology and sensing. We have implemented a method for the improved readout of ...

    • Room-Temperature Quantum Bit Memory Exceeding One Second 

      Maurer, Peter Christian; Kucsko, Georg; Latta, C.; Jiang, L.; Yao, Norman Ying; Bennett, S. D.; Pastawski, F.; Hunger, D.; Chisholm, Nicholas Edward Kennedy; Markham, M.; Twitchen, D. J.; Cirac, J. I.; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2012)
      Stable quantum bits, capable both of storing quantum information for macroscopic time scales and of integration inside small portable devices, are an essential building block for an array of potential applications. We ...

    • Scalable Architecture for a Room Temperature Solid-State Quantum Information Processor 

      Yao, Norman Ying; Jiang, Liang; Gorshkov, Alexey Vyacheslavovich; Maurer, Peter Christian; Giedke, Géza; Cirac, Ignacio; Lukin, Mikhail D. (Nature Publishing Group, 2012)
      The realization of a scalable quantum information processor has emerged over the past decade as one of the central challenges at the interface of fundamental science and engineering. Here we propose and analyse an ...
