Partially reflecting jamming objects in correlation-enhanced target detection with entangled photons

In the optical detection of distant objects, one can benefit from quantum light properties over those of classical light. Two-beam correlation-enhanced protocols can improve imaging or target detection even under strong background noise and in the low photon flux regime.

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.

A scalable, symmetric atom interferometer for infrasound gravitational wave detection

We propose a terrestrial detector for gravitational waves with frequencies between 0.3 and 5 Hz based on atom interferometry. As key elements, we discuss two symmetric matter-wave interferometers, the first one with a single loop and the second one featuring a folded triple-loop geometry. The latter eliminates the need for atomic ensembles at femtokelvin energies imposed by the Sagnac effect in other atom interferometric detectors.

Quantum vortices in curved geometries

The control over the geometry and topology of quantum systems is crucial for advancing novel quantum technologies. This work provides a synthesis of recent insights into the behavior of quantum vortices within atomic Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) subject to curved geometric constraints.

Enhanced operating temperature in terahertz quantum cascade lasers based on direct phonon depopulation

Room temperature operation of terahertz quantum cascade lasers (THz QCLs) has been a long-pursued goal to realize compact semiconductor THz sources. In this paper, we report on improving the maximum operating temperature of THz QCLs to ∼ 261 K as a step toward the realization of this goal.

A gate- and flux-controlled supercurrent diode effect

Non-reciprocal charge transport in supercurrent diodes (SDs) has polarized growing interest in the last few years for their potential applications in superconducting electronics (SCE). So far, SD effects have been reported in complex hybrid superconductor/semiconductor structures or metallic systems subject to moderate magnetic fields, thus showing limited potentiality for practical applications in SCE.

Temperature sensing with RF-dressed states of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond

Using the electronic spin of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond is a promising approach to realizing high-precision temperature sensors; furthermore, pulsed optically detected magnetic resonance (pulsed-ODMR) is one way to measure the temperature using these NV centers.

Quantum anomalous Hall interferometer

Electronic interferometries in integer and fractional quantum Hall regimes have unfolded the coherence, correlation, and statistical properties of interfering constituents.

Quantum dynamics using path integral coarse-graining

The vibrational spectra of condensed and gas-phase systems are influenced by thequantum-mechanical behavior of light nuclei. Full-dimensional simulations of approximate quantum dynamics are possible thanks to the imaginary time path-integral (PI) formulation of quantum statistical mechanics, albeit at a high computational cost which increases sharply with decreasing temperature.

NQCDynamics.jl: A Julia package for nonadiabatic quantum classical molecular dynamics in the condensed phase

Accurate and efficient methods to simulate nonadiabatic and quantum nuclear effects in high-dimensional and dissipative systems are crucial for the prediction of chemical dynamics in the condensed phase. To facilitate effective development, code sharing, and uptake of newly developed dynamics methods, it is important that software implementations can be easily accessed and built upon.
