Circular Bragg gratings compose a very appealing photonic platform and nanophotonic interfacefor the controlled light-matter coupling of emitters in nanomaterials. Here, we discuss the integration ofexfoliated monolayers of WSe2with GaInP Bragg gratings

In this work, we demonstrate the preservation of time-energy entanglement of near-IR photons through thick biological media ( 1.55 mm) and tissue ( 235 um) at room temperature. Using a Franson-type interferometer, we demonstrate interferometric contrast of

Quantum dots (QDs) defined with electrostatic gates are a leading platform for a scalable quantum computing implementation. However, with increasing numbers of qubits, the complexity of the control parameter space also grows. Traditional measurement
Single photons are a key, fundamental element of most quantum optical technologies, be it for the development of large-scale quantum communication networks, for quantum simulation, or for connecting quantum memories in a quantum computer. The ideal single

Topological insulators could profoundly impact the fields of spintronics, quantum computing and low-power electronics. To enable investigations of these non-trivial phases of matter beyond the reach of present-day experiments, quantum simulations provide
Major improvements have been made on semiconductor quantum dot light sources recently and now they can be seen as a serious candidate for near-future scalable photonic quantum information processing experiments. The three key parameters of these photon

Schrödinger held that a local quantum system has some objectively real quantum state and no other (hidden) properties. He therefore took the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) phenomenon, which he generalized and called 'steering', to require nonlocal

We quantum simulated the 2D Harper-Hofstadter (HH) lattice model in a highly elongated tube geometry—three sites in circumference—using an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. In addition to the usual transverse (out-of-plane) magnetic flux, piercing the

We report on the strong coupling between a metallic ferromagnetic Fe75Co25 thin-film patterned element and a range of superconducting Nb half-wavelength co-planar waveguide (CPW) resonators. By varying the volume of the ferromagnet we demonstrate that the
A quantum system subject to continuous measurement and post-selection evolves according to a non- Hermitian Hamiltonian. We show that, as one increases the rate of post-selection, this non- Hermitian Hamiltonian can undergo a spectral phase transition. On

Communication is an integral part of human life. Today, optical pulses are the preferred information carriers for long-distance communication. The exponential growth in data leads to a "capacity crunch" in the underlying physical systems. One of the

Growing interest in quantum computing for practical applications has led to a surge in the availability of programmable machines for loading and executing quantum algorithms. Photonic quantum computers have been limited either to non-deterministic
We demonstrate a method that allows a high-efficiency single-photon-avalanche diode (SPAD) with a thick absorption region (> 10 µm) to count single photons at rates significantly higher than previously demonstrated. We apply large (> 30 V) AC bias gates to

Delivering on the revolutionary promise of a universal quantum computer will require processors with millions of quantum bits (qubits). In superconducting quantum processors, each qubit is individually addressed with microwave signal lines that connect

We investigate material properties in MoxSi1-x thin films with the goal of optimization for single-photon detection from UV to mid-IR wavelengths. Saturated internal detection efficiency appears to be related to film structure for this material. By

Developing compact, low-dissipation, cryogenic-compatible microwave electronics is essential for scaling up low-temperature quantum computing systems. In this paper, we demonstrate an ultracompact microwave directional forward coupler based on high

Quantum random numbers distinguish themselves from others by their intrinsic unpredictability arising from the principles of quantum mechanics. As such they are extremely useful in many scientific and real-world applications with considerable efforts going
