Ultra-coherent nano-mechanical resonators for quantum optomechanics at room temperature

Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Mechanical oscillators are among the most important scientific tools in the modern physics. From the pioneering experiments in 18th by founding fathers of modern physics such as Newton, Hooke and Cavendish to the ground braking experiments in the 21th cent ...

Quantum optomechanics at room temperature

Hendrik Schütz

Why are classical theories often sufficient to describe the physics of our world even though everything around us is entirely composed of microscopic quantum systems? The boundary between these two fundamentally dissimilar theories remains an unsolved prob ...

CubeSat quantum communications mission

Edoardo Charbon

Quantum communication is a prime space technology application and offers near-term possibilities for long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) and experimental tests of quantum entanglement. However, there exists considerable developmental risks and sub ...

Self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates for growth of pyramidal quantum dots by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on patterned substrates

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Pascal Gallo, Alessandro Surrente, Romain Carron

We demonstrate the self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates on GaAs (111)B substrates patterned with arrays of inverted tetrahedral pyramids during metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy and its role in producing high-symmetry, site-controlled quantum dots (QD ...

Probing Entangled States of the Nuclear-Electronic Quantum Magnet LiHoF₄

Ivan Kovacevic

Two objects are entangled when their quantum mechanical wavefunctions cannot be written in a separable product form. Entangling dissimilar quantum objects, or hybridization, has been suggested as a promising route to efficient quantum information processor ...

Optically active quantum dots in bottom-up nanowires

Yannik Fontana

This thesis is dedicated to the discovery and progressive study of quantum emitters embedded in the shell of coaxial gallium arsenide/ aluminum gallium arsenide nanowires. The bottom-up core/shell nanowires were grown in a molecular beam epitaxy machine. D ...

Spectral signatures of high-symmetry quantum dots and effects of symmetry breaking

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Marc-André Dupertuis, Daniel Oberli, Valentina Troncale

High symmetry epitaxial quantum dots (QDs) with three or more symmetry planes provide a very promising route for the generation of entangled photons for quantum information applications. The great challenge to fabricate nanoscopic high symmetry QDs is furt ...

Optical and transport properties of GaN/(Al,Ga)N heterostructures in prospect of infrared unipolar devices

Etienne François Olivier Giraud

Over the past decade, a growing interest appeared for III-nitride semiconductors, in view of their potential applications in intersubband (ISB) devices. If these materials are nowadays famous, particularly for having revolutionized domestic lighting thanks ...

The Role of Quantum Effects on Structural and Electronic Fluctuations in Neat and Charged Water

Michele Ceriotti, Federico Giberti

In this work, we revisit the role of nuclear quantum effects on the structural and electronic properties of the excess proton in bulk liquid water using advanced molecular dynamics techniques. The hydronium ion is known to be a weak acceptor of a hydrogen ...

Three-dimensional nanoscale study of Al segregation and quantum dot formation in GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Martin Heiss, Eleonora Russo, Luca Francaviglia, Sonia Conesa Boj, Yannik Fontana

GaAs/Al-GaAs core-shell nanowires fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy contain quantum confining structures susceptible of producing narrow photoluminescence (PL) and single photons. The nanoscale chemical mapping of these structures is analyzed in 3D by a ...
