Dissipative Preparation of Spin Squeezed Atomic Ensembles in a Steady State
(American Physical Society (APS), 2013)
We present and analyze a new approach for the generation of atomic spin-squeezed states. Our method involves the collective coupling of an atomic ensemble to a decaying mode of an open optical cavity. We demonstrate the ...
Robustness of quantum memories based on Majorana zero modes
(American Physical Society (APS), 2013)
We analyze the rate at which quantum information encoded in zero-energy Majorana modes is lost in the presence of perturbations. We show that information can survive for times that scale exponentially with the size of the ...
Nanometre-scale thermometry in a living cell
(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 ...
Coupling a Single Trapped Atom to a Nanoscale Optical Cavity
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2013)
Hybrid quantum devices, in which dissimilar quantum systems are combined in order to attain qualities not available with either system alone, may enable far-reaching control in quantum measurement, sensing, and information ...
Topologically protected quantum state transfer in a chiral spin liquid
(Springer Nature, 2013)
Topology plays a central role in ensuring the robustness of a wide variety of physical phenomena. Notable examples range from the current-carrying edge states associated with the quantum Hall and the quantum spin Hall ...
Collectively Enhanced Interactions in Solid-State Spin Qubits
(American Physical Society (APS), 2013)
We propose and analyze a technique to collectively enhance interactions between solid-state quantum registers composed from random networks of spin qubits. In such systems, disordered dipolar interactions generically result ...
Non-equilibrium fractional quantum Hall state of light
(IOP Publishing, 2013)
We investigate the quantum dynamics of systems involving small numbers of strongly interacting photons. Specifically, we develop an efficient method to investigate such systems when they are externally driven with a coherent ...
Coupling of NV Centers to Photonic Crystal Nanobeams in Diamond
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013)
The realization of efficient optical interfaces for solid-state atom-like systems is an important problem in quantum science with potential applications in quantum communications and quantum information processing. We ...
All-Optical Switch and Transistor Gated by One Stored Photon
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2013)
The realization of an all-optical transistor, in which one “gate” photon controls a “source” light beam, is a long-standing goal in optics. By stopping a light pulse in an atomic ensemble contained inside an optical ...
Integrated Diamond Networks for Quantum Nanophotonics
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012)
We demonstrate an integrated nanophotonic network in diamond, consisting of a ring resonator coupled to an optical waveguide with grating in- and outcouplers. Using a nitrogen-vacancy color center embedded inside the ring ...
