Quantum phase modulation with acoustic cavities and quantum dots

April 29, 2022
Author(s)
Poolad Imany, Zixuan Wang, Ryan DeCrescent, Robert Boutelle, Corey McDonald, Travis Autry, Samuel Berweger, Pavel Kabos, Sae Woo Nam, Richard Mirin, Kevin L. Silverman
Fast, efficient, and low-power modulation of light at microwave frequencies is crucial for chip-scale classical and quantum processing as well as for long-range networks of superconducting quantum processors. A successful approach to bridge the gap between

Chiral central charge from a single bulk wave function

April 28, 2022
Author(s)
Isaac H. Kim, Bowen Shi, Kohtaro Kato, Victor Albert
A (2+1)-dimensional gapped quantum many-body system can have a topologically protected energy current at its edge. The magnitude of this current is determined entirely by the temperature and the chiral central charge c_-, a quantity associated with the

Update of Atomic Data for the First Three Spectra of Actinium

April 22, 2022
Author(s)
Alexander Kramida
Abstract: The present article describes a complete re-analysis of all published data on observed spectral lines and energy levels of the first three spectra of actinium (Ac I–III). In Ac I, three previously determined energy levels have been rejected, 12

High-fidelity indirect readout of trapped-ion hyperfine qubits

April 21, 2022
Author(s)
Stephen Erickson, Jenny Wu, Panyu Hou, Daniel Cole, Shawn Geller, Alexander Kwiatkowski, Scott Glancy, Emanuel Knill, Daniel Slichter, Andrew C. Wilson, Dietrich Leibfried
We propose and demonstrate a protocol for high-fidelity indirect readout of trapped ion hyperfine qubits, where the state of a 9Be+ qubit ion is mapped to a 25Mg+ readout ion using laser-driven Raman transitions. By partitioning the 9Be+ ground-state

Bipolar Waveform Synthesis with an Optically Driven Josephson Arbitrary Waveform Synthesizer

April 19, 2022
Author(s)
Justus Brevik, Dahyeon Lee, Anna Fox, Yiwei Peng, Akim Babenko, Joe Campbell, Paul Dresselhaus, Franklyn Quinlan, Samuel P. Benz
An array of Josephson junctions (JJs) was driven with photonically generated current pulses to synthesize a high-fidelity 1 kHz bipolar voltage waveform with a quantum-based amplitude that can be directly related to fundamental constants. A photodiode

Quantum computing hardware for HEP algorithms and sensing

April 19, 2022
Author(s)
Corey Rae McRae
Quantum information science harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to realize computational algorithms with complexities vastly intractable by current computer platforms. Typical applications range from quantum chemistry to optimization problems and

Accelerated Green's function molecular dynamics

April 16, 2022
Author(s)
Vitor R. Coluci, Socrates de Oliveira Dantas Dantas, Vinod Tewary
A Green's function formalism has been applied to solve the equations of motion in classical molecular dynamics simulations. This formalism enables larger time scales to be probed for vibration processes in carbon nanomaterials. In Green's function

Inhomogenous Light Shifts of Coherent Population Trapping Resonances

April 13, 2022
Author(s)
Juniper Pollock, Valera Yudin, Alexey Taichenachev, Maxim Basalaev, D Kovalenko, Azure Hansen, John Kitching, William McGehee
Coherent population trapping (CPT) in atomic vapors using all-optical interrogation has enabled the miniaturization of microwave atomic clocks. Light shifts induced by the CPT driving elds can impact the spectral pro le of CPT resonances and are a common

A compact mid-infrared dual-comb spectrometer for outdoor spectroscopy

April 9, 2022
Author(s)
Gabriel Ycas, Fabrizio Giorgetta, Jacob T. Friedlein, Daniel Herman, Kevin Cossel, Esther Baumann, Nathan R. Newbury, Ian Coddington
This manuscript describes the design of a robust, mode-locked laser based, mid-infrared dual- comb spectrometer operating in the 3.1-µm to 4-µm spectral window. The design represents an improvement in signal-to-noise, system size, power consumption and

A pyroelectric detector-based method for low uncertainty spectral irradiance and radiance responsivity calibrations in the infrared using tunable lasers

April 4, 2022
Author(s)
Brian Alberding, John Woodward, Ping-Shine Shaw, Leonard Hanssen, Catherine Cooksey, Joseph P. Rice
The standard uncertainty of detector-based radiance and irradiance responsivity calibrations in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) traditionally has been limited to around 1 % or higher by the low spatial uniformity of detectors used to transfer the scale from

Generic character of charge and spin density waves in superconducting cuprates

April 4, 2022
Author(s)
Sangjun Lee, Edwin Huang, Thomas Johnson, Xuefei Guo, Ali Husain, Matteo Mitrano, Kannan Lu, Alexander Zakrzewski, Gilberto de la Pena, Yingying Peng, Hai Huang, Sang-Jun Lee, Hoyoung Jang, Jun-Sik Lee, Young Joe, W.Bertrand (Randy) Doriese, Paul Szypryt, Daniel Swetz, Songxue Chi, Adam Aczel, Gregory MacDougall, Steven Kivelson, Eduardo Fradkin, Peter Abbamonte
Charge density waves (CDWs) have been observed in nearly all families of copper-oxide superconductors. But the behavior of these phases across different families has been perplexing. In La-based cuprates, the CDW wavevector is an increasing function of
