Quantum-enabled continuous microwave-to-optics frequency conversion

Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Han Zhao, William David Chen, Abhishek Kejriwal, Mohammad Mirhosseini, | Summary: A quantum interface between microwave and optical photons is essential for entangling remote superconducting quantum processors. To preserve fragile quantum states, a transducer must operate efficiently while generating less than one photon of noise referred to […]

Reinforcement Tuning for Detecting Stances and Debunking Rumors Jointly with Large Language Models

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Ruichao Yang, Wei Gao, Jing Ma, Hongzhan Lin, Bo Wang | Summary: Learning multi-task models for jointly detecting stance and verifying rumors poses challenges due to the need for training data of stance at post level and rumor veracity at claim level, which are difficult to obtain. […]

Fermion-fermion interaction driven phase transitions in the rhombohedral trilayer graphene

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Qiao-Chu Zhang, Jing Wang, , , | Summary: The effects of short-range fermion-fermion interactions on the low-energy properties of the rhombohedral trilayer graphene are comprehensively investigated by virtue of the momentum-shell renormalization group method. We take into account all one-loop corrections and establish the energy-dependent coupled evolutions […]
