Design, modeling, and fabrication of high frequency Oersted lines for electron spin manipulation in silicon based quantum devices

October 25, 2024
Author(s)
Pradeep Namboodiri, Mark-yves Gaunin, Alessandro Restelli, Ranjit Kashid, Xiqiao Wang, Fan Fei, Brian Courts, FNU Utsav, Vijith Kamalon Pulikodan, Jonathan Wyrick, Richard M. Silver
Coherent manipulation of electron spins is one of the central problems of silicon-based quantum computing efforts. Electron spin resonance (ESR) lines, or Oersted lines, allow high frequency RF pulses to induce an electromagnetic field that drives Rabi

Fast Ground State to Ground State Separation of Small Ion Crystals

October 10, 2024
Author(s)
Tyler Gugliemo, Dietrich Leibfried, Stephen Libby, Daniel Slichter
Rapid separation of linear crystals of trapped ions into different subsets is critical for realizing trapped ion quantum computing architectures where ions are rearranged in trap arrays to achieve all-to-all connectivity between qubits. We introduce a

Barry I. Schneider, kathryn hamilton, Sudhakar Pamidighantam, Tom Wolcott
The Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Science Gateway\citeamosgateway} is a comprehensive cyber\-infrastructure for research and educational activities in computational AMO science. The \hbox$B$-Spline} atomic \hbox$R$-Matrix} (BSR) suite of programs is

A network of cooler white dwarfs as infrared standards for flux calibration

October 1, 2024
Author(s)
Abbigail Elms, Nicola Gentile Fusillo, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, ralph bohlin, Mark Hollands, Snehalata Sahu, Mairi O'Brien, Susana Deustua, Tim Cunningham
The accurate flux calibration of observational data is vital for astrophysics and cosmology because absolute flux uncertainties of stellar standards propagate into scientific results. With the ever higher precision achieved by telescopic missions (e.g. JWS

Phase transition in magic with random quantum circuits

September 23, 2024
Author(s)
Michael Gullans
Maic is a resource that enables quantum computation and quantifies the efficacy of a quantum state for universal fault-tolerant quantum computing. Understanding the mechanisms by which magic is created or destroyed is, therefore, a crucial step towards

Rydberg states of alkali atoms in atomic vapor as SI-traceable field probes and communications receivers

September 16, 2024
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Samuel Berweger, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Andrew Rotunno, Alexandra Artusio-Glimpse, Matthew Simons, Abrar Sheikh, Eric Norrgard, Stephen Eckel, Christopher Holloway
Rydberg states of alkali atoms are highly sensitive to electric fields because their electron wavefunction has a large spatial extent, leading to large polarizabilities for static fields and large transition dipole moments for time-varying fields. Over the

Linking excess entropy and acentric factor in spherical fluids

September 9, 2024
Author(s)
Tae Jun Yoon, Ian Bell
Introduced by Kenneth Pitzer in 1955, the acentric factor (ω) became a standard quantity in chemical thermodynamics, representing a molecule's "shape" effect on the deviation from the corresponding state behavior. Nevertheless, its interpretation remains

Calibration of Autler-Townes based electrometry in Rydberg states of alkali atoms

August 30, 2024
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Alexandra Artusio-Glimpse, Samuel Berweger, Matthew Simons, William Watterson, Dangka Shylla, Christopher Holloway
Highly excited states of alkali atoms are a powerful tool for making SI-traceable electric field measurements without the need for an external reference. However, the calibration of these measurements suffers from ambiguity in which transition dipole

Assessing girth weld quality of pipeline steels and their susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement

August 28, 2024
Author(s)
Zack Buck, Newell Moser, Nicholas Derimow, May Ling Martin, Damian Lauria, Enrico Lucon, Douglas Stalheim, Peter Bradley, Matthew Connolly
Hydrogen has long been considered a viable carbon-free option for ever-increasing societal desires to transform our energy infrastructure towards more renewable and alternative technologies. However, the effects of hydrogen-assisted damage mechanisms that

Wafer-scale fabrication of evacuated alkali vapor cells

August 28, 2024
Author(s)
Yang Li, Matthew Hummon, Susan Schima, John Kitching, DONGGYU SOHN
We describe a process for fabricating a wafer-scale array of alkali metal vapor cells with low residual gas pressure. We show that by etching long, thin channels between the cells on the Si wafer surface, the residual gas pressure in the evacuated vapor

Calibration for Astrophysics using an Artificial star with NIST-traceable Distribution of Luminous Energy (CANDLE) Instrument Development

We measure the complete set of transition frequencies necessary to laser cool and trap MgF molecules. Specifically, we report the frequency of multiple low $J$ transitions of the $X^2\Sigma^+(v^\prime\prime}=0,1) \rightarrow A^2\Pi_1⁄2(v^\prime=0)$, $X^2

Samarth Hawalder, Prakriti Shahi, Allison Carter, Ana Rey Ayala, John J. Bollinger, Athreya Shankar
Trapped ion systems are a leading platform for quantum information processing, but they are currently limited to 1D and 2D arrays, which imposes restrictions on both their scalability and their range of applications. Here, we propose a path to overcome
