We show how a quantum walk can be experimentally realized for a single trapped ion and how to interpolate between the quantum and random walk by randomizing the...
Viscoelastic relaxation processes factor into polymer performance and stability throughout an application lifetime. These relaxations are controlled by the...
For a decade the femtosecond laser based frequency comb has played a key role in high precision optical frequency metrology.While often referred to as a precise...
Microfluidics aims to control precisely the transport of fluids and suspended particles or drops. Here we calculate two characteristics of interest in...
