A dissymmetric [Gd] coordination molecular dimer hosting six addressable spin qubits

Fernando Luis, Pablo J. Alonso, Olivier Roubeau +5

Artificial magnetic molecules are suitable hosts to one or several spin qubits, which could then implement small-scale algorithms. In order to become of practical use, such molecul…

Bound states in ultrastrong waveguide QED

Juan Román-Roche, Eduardo Sánchez-Burillo, David Zueco

We discuss the properties of bound states in finite-bandwidth waveguide QED beyond the Rotating Wave Approximation or excitation number conserving light-matter coupling models. The…

Chiral quantum optics in photonic sawtooth lattices

Eduardo Sánchez-Burillo, Chao Wan, David Zueco +1

Chiral quantum optics has become a burgeoning field due to its potential applications in quantum networks or quantum simulation of many-body physics. Current implementations are ba…

Spin squeezing by one-photon-two-atom excitations processes in atomic ensembles

Vincenzo Macrí, Franco Nori, Salvatore Savasta +1

It has been shown elsewhere that two spatially separated atoms can jointly absorb one photon, whose frequency is equal to the sum of the transition frequencies of the two atoms. We…

Single photons by quenching the vacuum

Eduardo Sánchez-Burillo, Luis Martín-Moreno, Juan José García-Ripoll +1

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle implies that the quantum vacuum is not empty but fluctuates. These fluctuations can be converted into radiation through nonadiabatic changes in t…

Strong coupling of a single photon to a magnetic vortex

María José Martínez-Pérez, David Zueco

Strong light-matter coupling is a necessary condition for exchanging information in quantum information protocols. It is used to couple different qubits (matter) via a quantum bus…

-symmetric circuit-QED

Fernando Quijandría, Uta Naether, Sahin K. Özdemir +2

The Hermiticity axiom of quantum mechanics guarantees that the energy spectrum is real and the time evolution is unitary (probability-preserving). Nevertheless, non-Hermitian but $…

Emergent Causality and the N-photon Scattering Matrix in Waveguide QED

Eduardo Sánchez-Burillo, Andrea Cadarso, Luis Martín-Moreno +2

In this work we discuss the emergence of approximate causality in a general setup from waveguide QED -i.e. a one-dimensional propagating field interacting with a scatterer. We prov…
