Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Kostas Vilkelis, Antonio Manesco, Juan Daniel Torres Luna, Sebastian Miles, Michael Wimmer | Summary: We propose a practical implementation of a universal quantum computer that uses local fermionic modes (LFM) rather than qubits. Our design consists of quantum dots tunnel coupled by a hybrid superconducting island together […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Wenye Ji, Jin Chang2, He-Xiu Xu, Jian Rong Gao, Simon Gröblacher | Summary: As a two-dimensional planar material with low depth profile, a metasurface can generate non-classical phase distributions for the transmitted and reflected electromagnetic waves at its interface. Thus, it offers more flexibility to control the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jos Zwanikken | First 5 Authors: Christine Linne, Eva Heemskerk, Jos Zwanikken, Daniela J. Kraft, Liedewij Laan | Summary: Weak multivalent interactions govern a large variety of biological processes like cell-cell adhesion and virus-host interactions. These systems distinguish sharply between surfaces based on receptor density, known as superselectivity. Earlier experimental and theoretical work […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gijsje H. Koenderink | First 5 Authors: Anupama Gannavarapu, Sadjad Arzash, Iain Muntz, Jordan L. Shivers, Anna-Maria Klianeva | Summary: Fibrous networks such as collagen are common in biological systems. Recent theoretical and experimental efforts have shed light on the mechanics of single component networks. Most real biopolymer networks, however, are composites made […]
Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Prasanna Rout, Nikos Papadopoulos, Fernando Peñaranda, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Bilayer graphene encapsulated in tungsten diselenide can host a weak topological phase with pairs of helical edge states. The electrical tunability of this phase makes it an ideal platform to investigate unique topological effects at […]

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Yong Yu, Dorian Oser, Gaia Da Prato, Emanuele Urbinati, Javier Carrasco Ávila | Summary: Single quantum emitters embedded in solid-state hosts are an ideal platform for realizing quantum information processors and quantum network nodes. Among the currently-investigated candidates, Er$^{3+}$ ions are particularly appealing due to their 1.5 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eliska Greplova | First 5 Authors: Rouven Koch, David van Driel, Alberto Bordin, Jose L. Lado, Eliska Greplova | Summary: Determining Hamiltonian parameters from noisy experimental measurements is a key task for the control of experimental quantum systems. An experimental platform that recently emerged, and where knowledge of Hamiltonian parameters is crucial to […]
