Terrestrial very-long-baseline atom interferometry: Workshop summary

This document presents a summary of the 2023 Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry Workshop hosted by CERN. The workshop brought together experts from around the world to discuss the exciting developments in large-scale atom interferometer (AI) prototypes and their potential for detecting ultralight dark matter and gravitational waves.

Beneficial and detrimental entanglement for quantum battery charging

We establish a general implementation-independent approach to assess the potential advantage of using highly entangled quantum states between the initial and final states of the charging protocol to enhance the maximum charging power of quantum batteries.

Open hardware solutions in quantum technology

Quantum technologies, such as communication, computing, and sensing, offer vast opportunities for advanced research and development. While an open-source ethos currently exists within some quantum technologies, especially in quantum computer programming, we argue that there are additional advantages in developing open quantum hardware (OQH).

QED in space–time varying materials

Space–time variation spoils frequency conservation and brings negative frequencies into the picture. In addition, the quantum nature of light comes to the fore in a manner not evident in static systems. Here, we explore the quantum structure of these systems; propose a Hamiltonian; show that, in the Heisenberg picture, quantum field operators evolve according to classical equations; and discuss the uniquely quantum phenomenon of photon-pair creation.

Electronic noise—From advanced materials to quantum technologies

The science of electronic fluctuations and noise has been one of the most important branches of applied physics. The investigation of noise is essential for the understanding of physical processes in various materials and devices

Whispering gallery mode sensing through the lens of quantum optics, artificial intelligence, and nanoscale catalysis

Ultra-sensitive sensors based on the resonant properties of whispering gallery modes (WGMs) can detect fractional changes in nanoscale environments down to the length and time scales of single molecules. However, it is challenging to isolate single-molecule signals from competing noise sources in experiments, such as thermal and mechanical sources of noise, and—at the most fundamental level—the shot noise limit of classical light.

Loading and identifying various charged thorium ions in a linear ion trap with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer

Various charged thorium ions such as singly charged, doubly charged, and triply charged thorium ions trapped in the ion trap can be used to excite the Th-229 first nuclear excited state via the electronic bridge process. We present an integration of a linear ion trap with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer to investigate trapped Th-232 ions.

Frequency-tunable magnetic field sensing using continuous-wave optically detected magnetic resonance with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center is a promising candidate to realize practical quantum sensors with high sensitivity and high spatial resolution at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. In conventional high-frequency AC magnetometry with NV centers, the setup requires a pulse sequence with an appropriate time synchronization and strong microwave power.

DeepQMC: An open-source software suite for variational optimization of deep-learning molecular wave functions

Computing accurate yet efficient approximations to the solutions of the electronic Schrödinger equation has been a paramount challenge of computational chemistry for decades.

A “short blanket” dilemma for a state-of-the-art neural network potential for water: Reproducing experimental properties or the physics of the underlying many-body interactions?

Deep neural network (DNN) potentials have recently gained popularity in computer simulations of a wide range of molecular systems, from liquids to materials. In this study, we explore the possibility of combining the computational efficiency of the DeePMD framework and the demonstrated accuracy of the MB-pol data-driven, many-body potential to train a DNN potential for large-scale simulations of water across its phase diagram.

Asynchronous entanglement routing for the quantum internet

With the emergence of the Quantum Internet, the need for advanced quantum networking techniques has significantly risen. Various models of quantum repeaters have been presented, each delineating a unique strategy to ensure quantum communication over long distances.

Microstructured optical fibers for quantum applications: Perspective

Recent progress in the development and applications of microstructured optical fibers for quantum technologies is summarized. The optical nonlinearity of solid-core and gas-filled hollow-core fibers provides a valuable medium for the generation of quantum resource states as well as for quantum frequency conversion between the operating wavelengths of existing quantum photonic material architectures.
