Kavli Affiliate: Ronald Hanson | Summary:Diamond tin-vacancy (SnV) centers are promising candidates for building quantum network nodes. However, their native photon emission at 619 nm is incompatible with metropolitan-scale networks operating at low-loss telecom wavelengths. To address this, we demonstrate highly efficient, low-noise quantum frequency conversion (QFC) of 619 nm photons to the telecom S-band […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herre Van Der Zant | Summary:Van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) composed of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and layered magnetic semiconductors offer great opportunities to manipulate exciton and valley properties of TMDs. Here, we present magneto-photoluminescence (PL) studies in a WSe2 monolayer (ML) on a CrSBr crystal, an anisotropic layered antiferromagnetic semiconductor. Our results reveal […]

Kavli Affiliate: Tim H. Taminiau| First 5 Authors: B. Varona-Uriarte, B. Varona-Uriarte, , , | Summary:The characterization of nuclear spin environments in solid-state devices plays an important role in advancing quantum technologies, yet traditional methods often demand long measurement times. To address this challenge, we extend our recently developed deep-learning-based SALI model (Signal-to-image ArtificiaL Intelligence) […]

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | Summary:Superfluid helium is a prototypical quantum liquid. As such, it has been a prominent platform for the study of quantum many body physics. More recently, the outstanding mechanical and optical properties of superfluid helium, such as low mechanical dissipation and low optical absorption, have positioned superfluid helium as a promising […]

Kavli Affiliate: Toeno Van Der Sar | Summary:Magnon spintronics aims to harness spin waves in magnetic films for information technologies. Color center magnetometry is a promising tool for imaging spin waves, using electronic spins associated with atomic defects in solid-state materials as sensors. However, two main limitations persist: the magnetic fields required for spin-wave control […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herre Van Der Zant | Summary:Particle-exchange heat engines operate without moving parts or time-dependent driving, relying solely on static energy-selective transport. Here, we realize a particle-exchange quantum heat engine based on a single diradical molecule, only a few nanometers in size. We experimentally investigate its operation at low temperatures and demonstrate that both […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | Summary:Remote state preparation (RSP) allows one party to remotely prepare a known quantum state on another party’s qubit using entanglement. This can be used in quantum networks to perform applications such as blind quantum computing or long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) with quantum repeaters. Devices to perform RSP, referred to […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lieven Vandersypen | Summary:Shuttling spin qubits in systems with large spin-orbit interaction (SOI) can cause errors during motion. However, in this work, we demonstrate that SOI can be harnessed to implement an arbitrary high-fidelity two-qubit (2Q) gate. We consider two spin qubits defined in a semiconductor double quantum dot that are smoothly moved […]
