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. […]

Universal scaling of shear thickening transitions

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Meera Ramaswamy, Itay Griniasty, Danilo B. Liarte, Abhishek Shetty, Eleni Katifori | Summary: Nearly all dense suspensions undergo dramatic and abrupt thickening transitions in their flow behavior when sheared at high stresses. Such transitions occur when the dominant interactions between the suspended particles shift from hydrodynamic to […]

Mechanical Cloak via Data-Driven Aperiodic Metamaterial Design

Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Liwei Wang, Jagannadh Boddapati, Ke Liu, Ping Zhu, Chiara Daraio | Summary: Mechanical cloaks are materials engineered to manipulate the elastic response around objects to make them indistinguishable from their homogeneous surroundings. Typically, methods based on material-parameter transformations are used to design optical, thermal and electric cloaks. […]

Strong Negative Electrothermal Feedback in Thermal Kinetic Inductance Detectors

Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Shubh Agrawal, Bryan Steinbach, James J. Bock, Clifford Frez, Lorenzo Minutolo | Summary: We demonstrate strong negative electrothermal feedback accelerating and linearizing the response of a thermal kinetic inductance detector (TKID). TKIDs are a proposed highly multiplexable replacement to transition-edge sensors and measure power through the […]

Active microphase separation in mixtures of microtubules and tip-accumulating molecular motors

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Bezia Lemma, Noah P. Mitchell, Radhika Subramanian, Daniel J. Needleman, Zvonimir Dogic | Summary: Mixtures of microtubules and molecular motors form active materials with diverse dynamical behaviors that vary based on their constituents’ molecular properties. We map the non-equilibrium phase diagram of microtubules and tip-accumulating kinesin-4 […]

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 […]

Using a Cross-Task Grid of Linear Probes to Interpret CNN Model Predictions On Retinal Images

Kavli Affiliate: Michael P. Brenner | First 5 Authors: Katy Blumer, Subhashini Venugopalan, Michael P. Brenner, Jon Kleinberg, | Summary: We analyze a dataset of retinal images using linear probes: linear regression models trained on some "target" task, using embeddings from a deep convolutional (CNN) model trained on some "source" task as input. We use […]

Identifying Majorana vortex modes via non-local transport

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Björn Sbierski, Max Geier, An-Ping Li, Matthew Brahlek, Robert G. Moore | Summary: The combination of two-dimensional Dirac surface states with s-wave superconductivity is expected to generate localized topological Majorana zero modes in vortex cores. Putative experimental signatures of these modes have been reported for heterostructures […]
