Scalable and fault-tolerant preparation of encoded k-uniform states

March 18, 2025
Author(s)
Shayan Majidy, Madelyn Cain, Nishad Maskara, Dominik Hangleiter, Michael Gullans
k-uniform states are valuable resources in quantum information, enabling tasks such as teleporta- tion, error correction, and accelerated quantum simulations. However, verifying k-uniformity is as difficult as measuring code distances, and devising fault

Detection of fractional quantum Hall states by entropy-sensitive measurements

Author(s)
Nishat Sultana, Robert Rienstra, K Watanabe, T Taniguchi, Joseph Stroscio, Nikolai Zhitenev, D Feldman, Fereshte Ghahari Kermani
Measurements of the thermopower of a clean two-dimensional electron system is directly proportional to the entropy per charge carrier1 which can probe strongly interacting quantum systems ranging from black holes2 to the fractional quantum Hall effect

Magneto-optics of a charge-tunable quantum dot: Observation of a negative diamagnetic shift

March 17, 2025
Author(s)
Giora Peniakov, A Beck, Eilon Poem, Zu-En Su, Boaz Taitler, Sven Hofling, Garnett Bryant, David Gershoni
We present magneto-optical studies of a self-assembled semiconductor quantum dot in neutral and positively charged states. The diamagnetic shifts and Zeeman splitting of many well identified optical transitions are precisely measured. Remarkably, a

Author(s)
Alison Kahn, Lisa Soucy
This report summarizes discussions from the Mission Critical Voice Virtual Roundtable hosted by the Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in April 2024. PSCR convened 37 first

NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0: Resource & Overview Guide (Japanese translation)

March 14, 2025
Author(s)
Kristina Rigopoulos, Stephen Quinn, Cherilyn Pascoe, Jeffrey Marron, Amy Mahn, Daniel Topper
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 can help organizations manage and reduce their cybersecurity risks as they start or improve their cybersecurity program. The CSF outlines specific outcomes that organizations can achieve to address risk. Other

A Spatially-Resolved Evaluation of Accelerated Environmental Aging on Emerging Polypropylene-based Photovoltaic Backsheets using Raman Spectroscopy
