System, device and method for quantum correlation measurement with single photon avalanche diode arrays

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic

A system for photon correlation of an illuminated object and/or a light source, including a light source for illuminating the object or to correlate, an optical system having an object-facing side configured to face the object or the light source and a pro ...

Staggered flux state for rectangular-lattice spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Dmitri Ivanov, Bastien Dalla Piazza, Noore Elahi Shaik

We investigate the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a rectangular lattice, using the Gutzwiller projected variational wave function known as the staggered flux state. Using Monte Carlo techniques, the variational parameters and instantaneous spin-spin correlat ...

Quantum Measurement of Mechanical Motion close to the Standard Quantum Limit

Liu Qiu

In quantum mechanics, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle places a fundamental limit in the measurement precision for certain pairs of physical quantities, such as position and momentum, time and energy or amplitude and phase. Due to the Heisenberg uncert ...

The quantum future of microscopy: Wave function engineering of electrons, ions, and nuclei

Fabrizio Carbone, Thomas La Grange, Ivan Madan, Giovanni Maria Vanacore, Simone Gargiulo

The ability to manipulate particles has always been a fundamental aspect for developing and improving scattering and microscopytechniques used for material investigations. So far, microscopy applications have mostly relied on a classical treatment of the e ...

Quantum correlation measurement with single photon avalanche diode arrays

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic

Temporal photon correlation measurement, instrumental to probing the quantum properties of light, typically requires multiple single photon detectors. Progress in single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array technology highlights their potential as high-perf ...

Preparation and Decay of a Single Quantum of Vibration at Ambient Conditions

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Vivishek Sudhir, Mitchell David Anderson, Santiago Tarrago Velez, Kilian Robert Seibold

A single quantum of excitation of a mechanical oscillator is a textbook example of the principles of quantum physics. But mechanical oscillators, despite their pervasive presence in nature and modem technology, do not genetically exist in an excited Fock s ...

Quantum Critical Regime in a Quadratically Driven Nonlinear Photonic Lattice

Vincenzo Savona, Fabrizio Minganti, Cristiano Ciuti, Riccardo Rota

We study an array of coupled optical cavities in the presence of two-photon driving and dissipation. The system displays a critical behavior similar to that of a quantum Ising model at finite temperature. Using the corner-space renormalization method, we c ...

Quantum-Limited Directional Amplifiers with Optomechanics

Tobias Kippenberg, Nathan Rafaël Bernier, László Dániel Tóth

Directional amplifiers are an important resource in quantum-information processing, as they protect sensitive quantum systems from excess noise. Here, we propose an implementation of phase-preserving and phase-sensitive directional amplifiers for microwave ...

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 ...

Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Collective Excitations in Strongly Interacting and Correlated Quantum Systems

Edoardo Baldini

Revealing the emergence and the dynamics of collective excitations in complex matter is a subject of pivotal importance, as it provides insight into the strength and spatial distribution of interactions and correlations. At the same time, collectivity lies ...
