This book was released on 2015-08-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work describes theoretical and experimental advances towards the realization of a hybrid quantum processor in which the collective degrees of freedom of an ensemble of spins in a crystal are used as a multi-qubit register for superconducting qubits. A memory protocol made of write, read and reset operations is first presented, followed by the demonstration of building blocks of its implementation with NV center spins in diamond. Qubit states are written by resonant absorption of a microwave photon in the spin ensemble and read out of the memory on-demand by applying Hahn echo refocusing techniques to the spins. The reset step is implemented in between two successive write-read sequences using optical repumping of the spins.

Readers will be introduced to new quantum computing schemes such as quantum annealing machines and coherent Ising machines, which have now arisen as alternatives to standard quantum computers and are designed to successfully address NP-hard/NP-complete combinatorial optimization problems, which are ubiquitous and relevant in our modern life. The book offers a balanced mix of theory-based and experimentation-based chapters written by leading researchers. Extensive information is provided on Quantum simulation, which focuses on the implementation of various many-body Hamiltonians in a well-controlled physical system, Quantum key distribution, Quantum repeaters and quantum teleportation, which are indispensable technologies for building quantum networks with various advanced applications and require far more sophisticated experimental techniques to implement.

Download or read book Spin Photon Strong Coupling of a Diluted Spin Ensemble Using On Chip Superconducting Resonators written by Giovanni Franco-Rivera and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The properties of quantum spins diluted in non-magnetic crystals make them a promising candidatefor a quantum memory given their long coherence and relaxation times and their limited Hilbert space span by the electron and nuclear states of the spin Hamiltonian. In order to efficiently store and retrieve the quantum information from, let's say a superconducting qubit quantum processor, the coupling between systems is mediated by on-chip superconducting resonators that acts as a quantum bus. For this, a strong coupling between the spin quantum memory and electromagnetic mode of the superconducting resonator is needed. The results presented in this dissertation demonstrates the implementation of coupled photonic states of an on-chip superconducting resonator with a Gd3+ rare-earth ion hosted in a scheelite (CaWO4) crystal. Experiments probing the weakly coupled limit of the resonator mode with the electronuclear states of the 155,157Gd3+ isotopes diluted in CaWO4 crystal are shown. Highly sensitive field dependent cavity spectroscopy measurements showed the perturbation of the resonator properties, such as the cavity linewidth and resonance frequency. Information about the spin ensemble phase memory loss rate and coupling strength were obtained for the six observed resonances resulting from the hyperfine slitting of the Gd odd isotopes. Given the resonator microwave field distribution and carefully selecting the orientation of the static field relative crystallographic c-axis, we were able to detect highly forbidden electron spin resnonance (ESR) transitions. Additionaly, the strong coupling signal of the Gd3+ spin transition between the first and second excited state with the on-chip resonator mode is demonstrated. By analyzing the spectroscopic signal using the Dicke model that describes the interaction of photonic states with a large S spin the observed transitions were reproduced by numerical diagonalization of the spin-cavity Hamiltonian. Lastly the dynamics of the spin-cavity states were explored via pulsed ESR measurements by recording the cavity ring-down signal at different pulse lengths and drive powers. The presented results are only a first step into the exploration of the Gd3+ spin dynamics at millikelvin temperatures.

Download or read book Molecular Nanomagnets and Related Phenomena written by Song Gao and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The series Structure and Bonding publishes critical reviews on topics of research concerned with chemical structure and bonding. The scope of the series spans the entire Periodic Table and addresses structure and bonding issues associated with all of the elements. It also focuses attention on new and developing areas of modern structural and theoretical chemistry such as nanostructures, molecular electronics, designed molecular solids, surfaces, metal clusters and supramolecular structures. Physical and spectroscopic techniques used to determine, examine and model structures fall within the purview of Structure and Bonding to the extent that the focus is on the scientific results obtained and not on specialist information concerning the techniques themselves. Issues associated with the development of bonding models and generalizations that illuminate the reactivity pathways and rates of chemical processes are also relevant. The individual volumes in the series are thematic. The goal of each volume is to give the reader, whether at a university or in industry, a comprehensive overview of an area where new insights are emerging that are of interest to a larger scientific audience. Thus each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years should be presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. A description of the physical basis of the experimental techniques that have been used to provide the primary data may also be appropriate, if it has not been covered in detail elsewhere. The coverage need not be exhaustive in data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the new principles being developed that will allow the reader, who is not a specialist in the area covered, to understand the data presented. Discussion of possible future research directions in the area is welcomed. Review articles for the individual volumes are invited by the volume editors. Readership: research scientists at universities or in industry, graduate students Special offer for all customers who have a standing order to the print version of Structure and Bonding, we offer free access to the electronic volumes of the Series published in the current year via SpringerLink.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum computing has been a new and challenging area of research since the concept was put forward in 1980s. A quantum computer is a computer that processes information encoded in systems that exhibit quantum properties and is proved in theory to be more powerful than classical computers. Various approaches to the implementation of the quantum computers have been studied over the decades, each of them having their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of the lifetime of the quantum information, processing time, and scalability of the implementation. Proposals for hybrid quantum processors are interesting because they benefit from the advantages of each comprising system, and thus providing a promising approach to a practical quantum computer. In this thesis, I demonstrate experimentally the principle of utilizing electron spin ensembles as a quantum memory for hybrid quantum processors. I demonstrate the storage and on-demand retrieval of multiple bits of quantum information into and from a single electron spin ensemble by applying magnetic field gradient pulses. I then study the coupling between an electron spin ensemble and a three-dimensional microwave cavity, in the aim of discussing the condition for the coherent information transfer between the excitations in solid-state matter and photons. As an alternative to the high power pulses in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), I study the possibility of controlling the electron spin states via adiabatic processes. I demonstrate the implementation of adiabatic geometric phase gates in electron spins and compare their performances to other phase gates achieved with microwave pulses in both simulation and experiment, verifying the robustness of the adiabatic gates against certain type of noises. Finally I present the simulation method developed for simulating the pulsed EPR experiments in this thesis, using a model more general than some currently-existing simulation packages.
