1. 1. Quantum acoustics with superconducting circuits

   Författare :Gustav Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; superconducting qubits; cluster states; SAW; two-level systems; circuit QED; giant atoms; two-mode squeezing; surface acoustic wave; quantum acoustics; hybrid quantum systems;

   Sammanfattning : The past 20 years has seen rapid developments in circuit quantum electrodynamics, where superconducting qubits and resonators are used to control and study quantum light-matter interaction at a fundamental level. The development of this field is strongly influenced by quantum information science and the prospect of realizing quantum computation, but also opens up opportunities for combinations of different physical systems and research areas.

   Sammanfattning : Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are mechanical vibrations that propagate on the surface of solids while dissipating little power, consequently enabling them to propagate freely over long distances. The speed and wavelength of SAWs are reduced a five order of magnitude compared to when light is used as a carrier at gigahertz frequencies. LÄS MER

4. 3. Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Processing in Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Crystals

   Författare :Nicklas Ohlsson; Atomfysik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rare-earth ions; Optical processing; Optical storage; Electromagnetism; akustik; optik; Elektromagnetism; optics; acoustics; Photon echo; Quantum optics; Quantum computing; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Ohlsson;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, aspects of the use of cryogenically cooled rare-earth-ion-doped crystals in the fields of quantum optics and quantum information processing are addressed. The experiments and theoretical considerations referred to in this thesis are based on the coherent transient interaction between light and the ions in the crystals. LÄS MER

5. 4. Quantum computing with naturally trapped sub-nanometre-spaced ions

   Författare :Lars Rippe; Atomfysik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laserteknik; Laser technology; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Atomic and molecular physics; akustik; optik; Elektromagnetism; optics; acoustics; Electromagnetism; Fysik; Physics; entanglement; spectroscopy; rare-earth-metal-ion-doped crystals spectral hole-burning; inversion; excitation; laser stabilization; quantum computation; quantum gate;

   Sammanfattning : The main aim of this work, was to lay the foundations for the experimental realisation of a quantum mechanical controlled NOT gate in rare-earth-metal-ion-doped crystals. Small amounts of rare-earth elements, added during the growth of some inorganic crystals, will become substituted into the crystal lattice as trivalent ions. LÄS MER

7. 5. Towards measuring quantum sound

   Författare :Maria Ekström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; surface acoustic wave; interdigital transducer; artificial atom; qubit; superconducting circuits; cryogenic temperature; phonon; gigahertz frequency; quantum acoustics; unidirectional transducer;

   Sammanfattning : One of the most fundamental phenomena occurring in nature is the interaction between single atoms and electromagnetic fields. This is studied in quantum optics to probe the quantum nature of the system. In appended Paper I, we demonstrated that an artificial atom can couple to propagating sound, which is the acoustic analogue of quantum optics. LÄS MER
