    computation hybrid magnon materials

    Summary 

    Developing hybrid quantum systems is essential to harnessing the complementary advantages of different quantum technology platforms. This necessitates the successful transfer of quantum information between platforms, which can be achieved, e.g., by harnessing magnons, or spin wave excitations, in magnetic materials. Decoherence due to uncontrolled coupling of qubits to the environment remains a fundamental challenge in many current platforms but can be potentially overcome by harnessing magnon Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) and non-Abelian Majorana fermion excitations that arise from a Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL). The goals of this project are (1) to generate and detect coherent magnons in 2D magnets for quantum magnonics; and (2) to induce collective quantum states in 2D magnets (magnon BECs and Kitaev QSLs), which can provide an alternative route to defeat quantum decoherence. 2D magnetic insulators interfaced with topological semimetals will be fabricated to generate and detect coherent magnons, magnon BECs and QSLs. Radio-frequency (RF) current driven through the metallic layers will yield a spin and/or anomalous Hall current that will exert torques and excite spin waves in the magnetic layers. The excited magnons will be detected using electron tunnelling. Success in these experiments will allow for alternative qubit implementations, which can significantly benefit the quantum technology sector, including mediating quantum information transfer in hybrid quantum systems and potentially being used as a platform for noise-tolerant quantum computing.

    Cryo-CMOS to Control and Operate 2D Fault-Tolerant Qubit Network

    Summary   Large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computation requires precise and stable control of individual qubits. This project will use complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology to provide a cost-effective scalable platform for reliable and high-density control infrastructure for silicon spin qubits. We will use sub-micron CMOS technology to address device and circuit-level challenges and explore the integration of […]

    Line-Scanning optical coherence tomography system for in-vivo, non-invasive imaging of the cellular structure and blood perfusion of biological tissue

    Summary  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical imaging method that allows for in-vivo, non-invasive imaging of the structure and vasculature of biological tissue. Commercially available, clinical OCT systems utilize point-scanning method to acquire volumetric images over a large surface with typical frame rates of ~ 30 frames/ second. Since living biological tissue is constantly […]

    Quantum Sensing with Small Quantum Systems

    Summary   There are small quantum systems over which we have very good control and which have long lifetimes. Examples include the phosphorous (P) defect in silicon (Si) and the nitrogen vacancy (NV) defect in diamond. With P defect in Si, we focus on improving our understanding of the hyperpolarization mechanism to better enable engineering of […]

    Visible wavelength external cavity diode lasers in photonic integrated circuits for atomic technologies

    Visible wavelength external cavity diode lasers in photonic integrated circuits for atomic technologies

    Atoms can be controlled by manipulating their internal states using agile, quiet and reliable laser sources. An external-cavity diode laser (ECDL) is a crucial enabling technology to realize such laser sources since it allows for the narrowing of the linewidth of a laser diode and precise tuning of the laser frequency. This project aims to […]
