David P. Pappas, Don David, Mustafa Bal, Ilke Arslan, Paul T. Blanchard, Ronald B. Goldfarb, Dustin A. Hite, Hsiang S. Ku, Russell E. Lake, Junling Long, Alexana Roshko, Lee D. Pappas, Britton L. Plourde, Jianguo Wen, Xian Wu, Corey Rae H. McRae

We show that electroplated Re ﬁlms in multilayers with noble metals such as Cu, Au, and Pd have an enhanced superconducting critical temperature...

Electromagnetically induced transparency in circuit quantum electrodynamics with nested polariton states

February 23, 2018

Author(s):

Junling Long, Hsiang S. Ku, Xian Wu, Xiu Gu, Russell E. Lake, Mustafa Bal, Yu-xi Liu, David P. Pappas

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is a signature of quantum interference in an atomic three-level system. By driving the dressed cavity-qubit...
