Visualizing the merger of tunably coupled graphene quantum dots

Author(s)
Daniel Walkup, Fereshte Ghahari, Steven R. Blankenship, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Nikolai Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Coupled quantum dots have been realized in a wide variety of physical systems and have attracted interest for many different applications. Here, we examine...

Telecom band quantum dot technologies for long-distance quantum networks

Author(s)
Ying Yu, Changmin Lee, Peter Michler, Stephan Reitzenstein, Kartik Srinivasan, Edo Waks, Shunfa Liu, Jin Liu
A future quantum internet is expected to generate, distribute, store and process quantum bits (qubits) over the world by linking different quantum nodes via...

Optomechanical feedback cooling of a 5 mm long torsional mode

Author(s)
Dianqiang Su, Yuan Jiang, Pablo Solano, Luis Orozco, John R. Lawall, Yanting Zhao
We report three orders of magnitude optical cooling of the fundamental torsional mode of a 5 mm-long, 550 nm diameter optical nanofiber. The rotation of the...
