Room-Temperature Quantum Optomechanics and Free-Electron Quantum Optics

Quantum optics studies how photons interact with other forms of matter, the understanding of which was crucial for the development of quantum mechanics as a whole. Starting from the photoelectric effect, the quantum property of light has led to the develop ...

Thermal Evolution of Dirac Magnons in the Honeycomb Ferromagnet CrBr3

Bruce Normand, Christian Rüegg

CrBr3 is an excellent realization of the two-dimensional honeycomb ferromagnet, which offers a bosonic equivalent of graphene with Dirac magnons and topological character. We perform inelastic neutron scattering measurements using state-of-the-art instrume ...

Dynamical properties of a driven dissipative dimerized S=1/2 chain

Bruce Normand

We consider the dynamical properties of a gapped quantum spin system coupled to the electric field of a laser, which drives the resonant excitation of specific phonon modes that modulate the magnetic interactions. We deduce the quantum master equations gov ...

Strong photon coupling to the quadrupole moment of an electron in a solid-state qubit

Pasquale Scarlino

The fundamental concept of light–matter interaction is routinely realized by coupling the quantized electric field in a cavity to the dipole moment of a real or an artificial atom. A recent proposal1,2, motivated by the prospect of overcoming the decoherin ...

Optimized Quantization in Distributed Graph Signal Filtering

Pascal Frossard, Isabela Cunha Maia Nobre

Distributed graph signal processing algorithms require the network nodes to communicate by exchanging messages in order to achieve a common objective. These messages have a finite precision in realistic networks, which may necessitate to implement message ...

A Gyrokinetic Model for the Tokamak Periphery

Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei, Antoine Baillod

Despite significant developments over the last decades, an analytical model which adequately describes plasma dynamics in the tokamak periphery region extending from the edge region to the far scrape-off layer is still missing. In this work, we present a n ...

Geometric Integrators for Nonadiabatic Molecular Quantum Dynamics Induced by the Interaction with the Electromagnetic Field

Aurélien Kevin Fabrice Patoz

Understanding the elementary steps involved in a chemical reaction forms the cornerstone of physical chemistry research. One way to deepen this understanding is by studying chemical and physical processes using linear and nonlinear spectroscopic techniques ...

Study of Field Misalignment in a Cavity Used for Atomic Clock Applications

Anja Skrivervik

In vapor cell atomic clocks the atom-field interaction is typically obtained inside a microwave cavity resonator in which the microwave driving field together with a static magnetic field and an optical field are applied to excite the atoms. These fields a ...

Short-Wavelength Spin Waves in Yttrium Iron Garnet Micro-Channels on Silicon

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Ping Che, Haiming Yu, Sa Tu, Francesco Antonio Vetrò, Yao Zhang

Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) has been widely used in spin wave studies thanks to its low Gilbert damping constant. However, most high-quality YIG films are grown on gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) substrate, which makes it difficult to integrate with existing ...
