    Mesoscopic systems as coherent control elements

    chemistry computation control entanglement grand challenge mesoscopic systems non-interacting qubits

    Summary 

    Mesoscopic systems provide a new tool for quantum systems design. In particular, they are enabling of robust quantum control. Here “mesoscopic system” refers to a connected network where each element, if studied alone, would be a quantum bit. The network is too big to be treated fully quantum mechanically. We do not have individual control over each element and we measure collective properties of the network. However, the network retains quantum coherence and behaves in a uniquely quantum fashion. In this project, we design a novel protocol using an intermediate mesoscopic system to control and interconnect non-interacting qubits. Our method aims to create entanglement between two separated qubits; a pure quantum correlation between the target qubits that provides a measure of the mesoscopic system’s quantum capacity. Over the course of this project, we will develop new theory and experimental tools. Ultimately, we expect our work will lead to innovative design elements for use in quantum processor architectures and quantum measurement devices.

    Figure 1: The summary of the entangling protocol: (a) The experimentally available control tools are used to correlate two joint logical states of the target with two very distinct collective states of the mesoscopic system, (b) A low-resolution global measurement over the mesoscopic system discerns between the distinct collective states of the mesoscopic system. This measurement updates the state of the qubits into one of the two logical joint states, each with a probability of ½, along with the state of the mesoscopic system. Both of these joint logical states are maximally entangled quantum states between the target qubits.

    Inverse Photoemission Spectroscopy of Quantum Materials

    Summary   Quantum materials that exhibit strong electron correlations lead to phenomena, such as superconductivity and topologically protected states, that are important for quantum computation, sensing, and other applications. For example, we may utilize symmetry protected topological states to make qubits that are robust against decoherence, while advances in high temperature superconductors may significantly reduce […]

    Chiral Quantum Antenna Based on Multilayer Metasurface

    Summary   Individual atoms can act as stationary qubits and thus serve as nodes in quantum computing networks or as memories for quantum repeaters. However, to successfully use qubits based on single atoms suspended in free space, photons emitted by a single atom need to be efficiently collected. Conventionally, this can be done with  high […]
