Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | Summary:The path to fault-tolerant quantum computing hinges on hardware that scales while remaining compatible with quantum error correction (QEC). Silicon spin qubits are a leading hardware candidate because they combine industrial fabrication compatibility with a nanoscale footprint that could accommodate millions of qubits on a chip. However, their suitability for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | Summary:As silicon spin qubit chips are increasing in qubit number and area, methods for the screening of qubit related material parameters become vital. Here we demonstrate the two-dimensional mapping of small variations of the electron g-factor of quantum dots formed in planar Si/SiGe quantum wells with precision better than $10^-3$ […]

Kavli Affiliate: Timon Idema | Summary:Bridging the gap between atomistic detail and continuum mechanics is a central challenge in modeling biological membranes, particularly for mesoscopic phenomena spanning large length and time scales. In this work, we introduce a new, solvent-free, one-particle-thick, coarse-grained model for lipid bilayers, governed by an additive potential. Our approach treats orientational […]
Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | Summary:We report an extremely rich ground state phase diagram of two spin-1 Haldane chains frustrated with a three-site exchange and coupled by the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction on a zig-zag ladder. A particular feature of the phase diagram is the extended quantum phase transition in the Ashkin-Teller universality class that separates […]

Kavli Affiliate: Leonardo Dicarlo | Summary:We investigate qubit error bursts in 5- and 7-transmon processors of similar design, fabrication and packaging, but with different types of qubit Josephson junctions. Measurements for each are performed in two refrigerators to discern device-specific from refrigerator-dependent characteristics. The duration and rate of bursts are device specific but within the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | Summary:We study quantum repeater chains in which entangled links between neighbouring nodes are created through heralded entanglement generation and adjacent links are swapped as soon as possible. Since heralded entanglement generation attempts succeed only probabilistically, some links will have to be stored in quantum memories at the nodes of the […]
