The IMS 2009 "Bonus Issue"

Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley
This is an Editorial for a special issue of IEEE Microwave Magazine devoted to the International Microwave Symposium. Kate Remley, the Editor-in-Chief, and two...

Reference Ballistic Chronograph

Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Donald R. Larson
A ballistic chronograph with a measurement uncertainty of less than +/- 0.1 m/s has been designed, constructed and tested. Because of this low uncertainty, this...

In-plane bias in a patterned ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic bilayer

Author(s)
Yury P. Kabanov, Valerian I. Nikitenko, Oleg A. Tikhomirov, William F. Egelhoff Jr., Alexander J. Shapiro, Robert D. Shull
Exchange bias in bi- and multilayer magnetic systems is usually ascribed to the existence of transient magnetic structures at the interfaces between adjacent...

Practical long-distance quantum key distribution system using decoy levels

Author(s)
Danna Rosenberg, Charles G. Peterson, Jim A. Harrington, Patrick R. Rice, N. Dallman, K. T. Tyagi, K. P. McCabe, Sae Woo Nam, Burm Baek, Robert Hadfield, Richard J. Hughes, Jane E. Nordholt
Quantum key distribution (QKD) has the potential for widespread real-world applications, but no secure long-distance experiment has demonstrated the truly...

Topography of epitaxial GaAs surfaces for growth

Author(s)
Susan Y. Lehman, Alexana Roshko, Richard Mirin, Kristine A. Bertness, Todd E. Harvey, Keith D. Cobry
The topography and surface roughness of (100) GaAs substrates and buffers after different preparation procedures were determined from atomic force microscopy...

Optimized Dynamical Decoupling in a Model Quantum Memory

Author(s)
Michael J. Biercuk, Hermann Uys, Aaron Vandevender, N. Shiga, Wayne M. Itano, David J. Wineland, John J. Bollinger
We demonstrate the efficacy of optimized dynamical decoupling pulse sequences in suppressing phase errors in a model quantum memory. Our experimental system...

Itinerant spin excitations near the hidden order transition in URu2Si2

Author(s)
J. A. Janik, H. D. Zhou, Y.-J. Jo, L. Balicas, G. J. MacDougall, G. M. Luke, J. D. Garrett, K. J. McClellan, E. D. Bauer, J. L. Sarrao, Yiming Qiu, John R. Copley, Z. Yamani, W. J. Buyers, C. R. Wiebe
By means of neutron scattering we show that the high-temperature precursor to the hidden order state of the heavy fermion superconductor URu 2Si 2 exhibits...

A Ferroelectric Oxide Directly on Silicon

Author(s)
Joseph C. Woicik, Maitri P. Warusawithana, Cheng Cen, Charles R. Sleasman, Yulan Li, Jeffery Kluga, Lena F. Kourkoutis, Hao Li, Li-Peng Wang, Michael Bedzyk, David A. Muller, Long-Qing Chen, Jeremy Levy, Darrell G. Schlom
Silicon and silicon dioxide form what is arguably the most important technological interface. With the end of Moore s-law scaling for silicon fast approaching...

High Fidelity Transport of Trapped-Ion Qubits through an X-Junction Trap Array

Author(s)
Brad R. Blakestad, Aaron Vandevender, Christian Ospelkaus, Jason Amini, Joseph W. Britton, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland
Trapped ions are a useful system for studying the elements of quantum information processing. Simple alogrithms have been demonstrated, but scaling to much...

Probing interactions between ultracold fermions

Author(s)
G K. Campbell, M M. Boyd, J W. Thomsen, M J. Martin, S Blatt, M D. Swallows, Travis L. Nicholson, Tara Fortier, Christopher W. Oates, Scott Diddams, Nathan D. Lemke, Pascal Naidon, Paul S. Julienne, Jun Ye, Andrew Ludlow
At ultracold temperatures, the Pauli exclusion principle suppresses collisions between identical fermions. This has motivated the development of atomic clocks...
