The Role of Cell-Matrix Interactions in Connective Tissue Mechanics

Kavli Affiliate: Gijsje H. Koenderink | First 5 Authors: Iain Muntz, Michele Fenu, Gerjo J. V. M. van Osch, Gijsje H. Koenderink, | Summary: Living tissue is able to withstand large stresses in everyday life, yet it also actively adapts to dynamic loads. This remarkable mechanical behaviour emerges from the interplay between living cells and […]

Non-classical mechanical states guided in a phononic waveguide

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Amirparsa Zivari, Robert Stockill, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher, | Summary: Quantum optics – the creation, manipulation and detection of non-classical states of light – is a fundamental cornerstone of modern physics, with many applications in basic and applied science. Achieving the same level of control over phonons, […]

Fast universal quantum control above the fault-tolerance threshold in silicon

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Akito Noiri, Kenta Takeda, Takashi Nakajima, Takashi Kobayashi, Amir Sammak | Summary: Fault-tolerant quantum computers which can solve hard problems rely on quantum error correction. One of the most promising error correction codes is the surface code, which requires universal gate fidelities exceeding the error correction threshold […]

Circuit quantum electrodynamics with two remote electron spins

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Patrick Harvey-Collard, Jurgen Dijkema, Guoji Zheng, Amir Sammak, Giordano Scappucci | Summary: We report the coherent coupling of two electron spins at a distance via virtual microwave photons. Each spin is trapped in a silicon double quantum dot at either end of a superconducting resonator, achieving spin-photon […]

Directional excitation of a high-density magnon gas using coherently driven spin waves

Kavli Affiliate: Toeno Van Der Sar | First 5 Authors: Brecht G. Simon, Samer Kurdi, Helena La, Iacopo Bertelli, Joris J. Carmiggelt | Summary: Controlling magnon densities in magnetic materials enables driving spin transport in magnonic devices. We demonstrate the creation of large, out-of-equilibrium magnon densities in a thin-film magnetic insulator via microwave excitation of […]

Two-photon sideband transition in a driven quantum Rabi model : Quantitative discussions with derived longitudinal drives and beyond the rotating wave approximation

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Byoung-moo Ann, Wouter Kessels, Gary A. Steele, , | Summary: In this work, we analytically and numerically study the sideband transition dynamics of the driven quantum Rabi model (QRM). We focus in particular on the conditions when the external transverse drive fields induce first-order sideband transitions. […]

On the Quantum Performance Evaluation of Two Distributed Quantum Architectures

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Gayane Vardoyan, Matthew Skrzypczyk, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Distributed quantum applications impose requirements on the quality of the quantum states that they consume. When analyzing architecture implementations of quantum hardware, characterizing this quality forms an important factor in understanding their performance. Fundamental characteristics of quantum hardware […]

Chemical design and magnetic ordering in thin layers of 2D MOFs

Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Javier López-Cabrelles, Samuel Mañas-Valero, Iñigo J. Vitórica-Yrezábal, Makars Šiškins, Martin Lee | Summary: Through rational chemical design, and thanks to the hybrid nature of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), it is possible to prepare molecule-based 2D magnetic materials stable at ambient conditions. Here, we illustrate […]

Measurement of the Thulium Ion Spin Hamiltonian Within a Yttrium Gallium Garnet Host Crystal

Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | First 5 Authors: Jacob H. Davidson, Philip J. T. Woodburn, Aaron D. Marsh, Kyle J. Olson, Adam Olivera | Summary: We characterize the magnetic properties for thulium ion energy levels in the Y$_3$Ga$_5$O$_{12}$ (Tm:YGG) lattice with the goal to improve decoherence and reduce line-width broadening caused by local host spins […]
