Double-Fourier engineering of Josephson energy-phase relationships applied to diodes

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: A. Mert Bozkurt, Jasper Brookman, Valla Fatemi, Anton R. Akhmerov, | Summary: We present a systematic method to design arbitrary energy-phase relations using parallel arms of two series Josephson tunnel junctions each. Our approach employs Fourier engineering in the energy-phase relation of each arm and the […]

Endotaxial Stabilization of 2D Charge Density Waves with Long-range Order

Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Suk Hyun Sung, Nishkarsh Agarwal, Ismail El Baggari, Yin Min Goh, Patrick Kezer | Summary: Charge density waves are emergent quantum states that spontaneously reduce crystal symmetry, drive metal-insulator transitions, and precede superconductivity. In low-dimensions, distinct quantum states arise, however, thermal fluctuations and external disorder destroy […]

Endotaxial Stabilization of 2D Charge Density Waves with Long-range Order

Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Charge density waves are emergent quantum states that spontaneously reduce crystal symmetry, drive metal-insulator transitions, and precede superconductivity. In low-dimensions, distinct quantum states arise, however, thermal fluctuations and external disorder destroy long-range order. Here we stabilize ordered two-dimensional (2D) charge […]

On the Bipartite Entanglement Capacity of Quantum Networks

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Gayane Vardoyan, Emily van Milligen, Saikat Guha, Stephanie Wehner, Don Towsley | Summary: We consider the problem of multi-path entanglement distribution to a pair of nodes in a quantum network consisting of devices with non-deterministic entanglement swapping capabilities. Multi-path entanglement distribution enables a network to establish end-to-end […]

Effect of coat-protein concentration on the self-assembly of bacteriophage MS2 capsids around RNA

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan N. Manoharan | First 5 Authors: LaNell A. Williams, Andreas Neophytou, Rees F. Garmann, Dwaipayan Chakrabarti, Vinothan N. Manoharan | Summary: Self-assembly is a vital part of the life cycle of certain icosahedral RNA viruses. Furthermore, the assembly process can be harnessed to make icosahedral virus-like particles (VLPs) from coat protein and […]

Design of a Majorana trijunction

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Juan Daniel Torres Luna, Sathish R. Kuppuswamy, Anton R. Akhmerov, , | Summary: Braiding of Majorana states demonstrates their non-Abelian exchange statistics. One implementation of braiding requires control of the pairwise couplings between all Majorana states in a trijunction device. In order to have adiabaticity, a […]

Precise characterization of nanometer-scale systems using interferometric scattering microscopy and Bayesian analysis

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan N. Manoharan | First 5 Authors: Xander M. de Wit, Amelia W. Paine, Caroline Martin, Aaron M. Goldfain, Rees F. Garmann | Summary: Interferometric scattering microscopy (iSCAT) can image the dynamics of nanometer-scale systems. The typical approach to analyzing interferometric images involves intensive processing, which discards data and limits the precision of […]
