Experimental quantum key distribution with simulated ground-to-satellite photon losses and processing limitations

Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Nikolay Gigov, Brendon L. Higgins +5

Quantum key distribution (QKD) has the potential to improve communications security by offering cryptographic keys whose security relies on the fundamental properties of quantum ph…

Loops and Strings in a Superconducting Lattice Gauge Simulator

G. K. Brennen, G. Pupillo, E. Rico +2

We propose an architecture for an analog quantum simulator of electromagnetism in 2+1 dimensions, based on an array of superconducting fluxonium devices. The encoding is in the int…

Generation of heralded single photons beyond 1100 nm by spontaneous four-wave mixing in a side-stressed femtosecond laser-written waveguide

Zhizhong Yan, Yuwen Duan, L. G. Helt +3

We demonstrate a monolithically integrable heralded photon source in a femtosecond laser direct written glass waveguide. The generation of photon pairs with a wide wavelength separ…

Observation of cooperatively enhanced atomic dipole forces from NV centers in optically trapped nanodiamonds

M. L. Juan, C. Bradac, B. Besga +3

Since the early work by Ashkin in 1970, optical trapping has become one of the most powerful tools for manipulating small particles, such as micron sized beads or single atoms. The…

Classicality of a quantum oscillator

Aida Ahmadzadegan, Robert B. Mann, Daniel R. Terno

Gaussian quantum systems exhibit many explicitly quantum effects but can be simulated classically. Using both the Hilbert space (Koopman) and the phase-space (Moyal) formalisms we…

Coherence in parametric fluorescence

T. Onodera, Marco Liscidini, J. E. Sipe +1

We investigate spontaneous four wave mixing (SFWM) in a single-channel side-coupled integrated spaced sequence of resonators (SCISSOR). Analytic expressions for the number of photo…
