Investigating Bias in Maximum Likelihood Quantum State Tomography

February 8, 2017
Author(s)
Scott C. Glancy, Hilma M. Vasconcelos, George B. Silva
Maximum likelihood quantum state tomography yields estimators that, in spite of the fact that they are consistent, may have bias. The bias of an estimator is the difference between the expected value of the estimate and the true value of the parameter

Enriching and purifying silicon epilayers for quantum information

December 6, 2016
Author(s)
Joshua M. Pomeroy, Kevin J. Dwyer, Ke Tang, Hyun S. Kim, Aruna N. Ramanayaka, David S. Simons
High quality, enriched silicon contains an exceptionally low density of defects and unpaired electron and nuclear spins that allow candidate qubits (single donors or quantum dots) to exhibit very long dephasing times compared to silicon with a natural

Entangling distant resonant exchange qubits via circuit quantum electrodynamics

November 16, 2016
Author(s)
Jacob M. Taylor, Vanita Srinivasa, Charles Tahan
We investigate a hybrid quantum system consisting of spatially separated resonant exchange qubits, defined in three-electron semiconductor triple quantum dots, that are coupled via a super- conducting transmission line resonator. By analyzing three

Cascaded emission of single photons from the biexciton in monolayered WSe2

November 10, 2016
Author(s)
Yu-Ming He, Oliver Iff, Nils Lundt, Vasilij Baumann, Marcelo I. Davanco, Kartik Srinivasan, Sven Hofling, Christian Schneider
Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenide materials emerged as a new material class to study excitonic effects in solid state. They benefit from the enormous coulomb correlations between electrons and holes, as a result of reduced dielectric screening

Heralding single photons from a high-Q silicon microdisk

November 10, 2016
Author(s)
Xiyuan Lu, Steven Rogers, Thomas Gerrits, Wei Jiang, Sae Woo Nam, Qiang Lin
Integrated quantum photonics has recently attracted considerable attention due to the promise of realizing chip-scale quantum information processing with unprecedented capability and complexity. Their implementation relies essentially on a high-quality

Double Quantum Dot Floquet Gain Medium

November 7, 2016
Author(s)
Jacob M. Taylor, Michael Gullans, Jason Petta, J. Stehlik, Yinyiu Liu, Christopher Eichler, T Hartke, X Mi
A qubit coupled to a microwave resonator allows the study of fundamental light-matter interactions at the level of single photons1. The paradigm of circuit quantum electrodynam- ics (cQED) enables the generation of classical and non-classical light2–5

Origin and Reduction of 1=f Magnetic Flux Noise in Superconducting Devices

October 18, 2016
Author(s)
P Kumar, David P. Pappas, Robert Mcdermott, J.W. Freeland, Clare Yu, M Beck, Hui Wang, Ruqian Wu
Magnetic flux noise is a dominant source of dephasing and energy relaxation in superconducting qubits. The noise power spectral density varies with frequency as 1=f^α, with α ≲ 1, and spans 13 orders of magnitude. Recent work indicates that the noise is

Non-equilibrium Transport of Light

October 16, 2016
Author(s)
Jacob M. Taylor, Chiao-Hsuan Wang
Understanding the behavior of light in non-equilibrium scenarios underpins much of quantum optics and optical physics. While lasers provide a severe example of a non-equilibrium problem, recent interests in the near-equilibrium physics of photon `gases'
