Curvature-Controlled Polarization in Adaptive Ferroelectric Membranes

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea D. Caviglia | First 5 Authors: Greta Segantini, Ludovica Tovaglieri, Chang Jae Roh, Chih-Ying Hsu, Seongwoo Cho | Summary: In this study, we explore the ferroelectric domain structure and mechanical properties of PbTiO$_3$-based membranes, which develops a well-ordered and crystallographic-oriented ripple pattern upon release from their growth substrate. The ferrolectric domain structure […]

Entanglement buffering with multiple quantum memories

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Álvaro G. Iñesta, Bethany Davies, Sounak Kar, Stephanie Wehner, | Summary: Entanglement buffers are systems that maintain high-quality entanglement, ensuring it is readily available for consumption when needed. In this work, we study the performance of a two-node buffer, where each node has one long-lived quantum memory […]

Braiding Majoranas in a linear quantum dot-superconductor array: Mitigating the errors from Coulomb repulsion and residual tunneling

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Miles, Francesco Zatelli, A. Mert Bozkurt, Michael Wimmer, Chun-Xiao Liu | Summary: Exchanging the positions of two non-Abelian anyons transforms between many-body wavefunctions within a degenerate ground-state manifold. This behavior is fundamentally distinct from fermions, bosons and Abelian anyons. Recently, quantum dot-superconductor arrays have emerged as […]
