Optical-parametric oscillation in photonic-crystal ring resonators

October 20, 2022
Author(s)
Jennifer Black, Grant Brodnik, Haixin Liu, Su-Peng Yu, David Carlson, Jizhao Zang, Travis Briles, Scott Papp
By-design access to laser wavelength, especially with integrated photonics, is critical to advance quantum sensors, such as optical clocks and quantum-information systems, and open opportunities in optical communication. Semiconductor-laser gain provides

Periodic Table of the Elements

October 5, 2022
Author(s)
Karen Olsen
The periodic table contains NIST's latest critically evaluated data for atomic properties of the elements.

Contactless Excitation of Acoustic Resonance in Thin Wafers

October 4, 2022
Author(s)
Gan Zhai, Yizhou Xin, Cameron Kopas, Ella Lachman, Mark Field, Josh Y Mutus, Katarina Cicak, Joe Aumentado, Zuhawn Sung, William Halperin
Contactless excitation and detection of high harmonic acoustic overtones in a thin single crystal are described using radio frequency spectroscopy techniques. Single crystal [001] silicon wafer samples were investigated, one side covered with a Nb thin

Density changes in amorphous silicon induced by swift heavy ions

October 4, 2022
Author(s)
Sjoerd Roorda, Amelie Lacroix, Stephanie Codsi, Gabrielle Long, Fan Zhang, Steven Weigand, Christina Trautmann
Pure and gold-doped amorphous silicon membranes were irradiated with swift heavy ions (75 MeV Ag or 1.1 GeV Au ions) and studied by small angle X-ray scattering. The samples that were irradiated with 1.1 GeV Au ions produced a scattering pattern consistent

High-Throughput Nanopore Fabrication and Classification Using Xe-Ion Irradiation and Automated Pore-Edge Analysis

September 26, 2022
Author(s)
Michal Macha, Sanjin Marion, Mukesh Tripathi, Martina Lihter, Alex Smolyanitsky, Andras Kis, Aleksandra Radenovic
Large-area nanopore drilling is a major bottleneck in state-of-the-art nanoporous 2D membrane fabrication protocols. In addition, high-quality structural and statistical descriptions of as-fabricated porous membranes are key to predicting the corresponding

Tightly Confined Surface Acoustic Waves as Microwave-to-Optical Transduction Platforms in the Quantum Regime

September 26, 2022
Author(s)
Ryan DeCrescent, Zixuan Wang, Poolad Imany, Robert Boutelle, Corey McDonald, Travis Autry, John Teufel, Sae Woo Nam, Richard Mirin
Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) coupled to quantum dots (QDs), trapped atoms and ions, and point defects have been proposed as quantum transduction platforms, yet the requisite coupling rates and cavity lifetimes have not been experimentally established

Provably efficient machine learning for quantum many-body problems

September 23, 2022
Author(s)
Hsin-Yuan Huang, Richard Kueng, Giacomo Torlai, Victor Albert, John Preskill
Classical machine learning (ML) provides a potentially powerful approach to solving challenging quantum many-body problems that arise in physics and chemistry, but the advantages of ML over more traditional classical methods have not been firmly

Sub-recoil clock-transition laser cooling enabling shallow optical lattice clocks

September 8, 2022
Author(s)
Xiaogang Zhang, Kyle Beloy, Youssef Hassan, William McGrew, Chun-Chia Chen, Jacob Siegel, Tanner Grogan, Andrew Ludlow
Laser cooling is a key ingredient for quantum control of atomic systems in a variety of settings. In two-valence-electron atoms, two-stage Doppler cooling is typically used to bring atoms to the μK regime. Here, we implement a pulsed radial cooling scheme
