Decoherence induced by interacting quantum spin baths

Davide Rossini, Tommaso Calarco, Vittorio Giovannetti +2

We study decoherence induced on a two-level system coupled to a one-dimensional quantum spin chain. We consider the cases where the dynamics of the chain is determined by the Ising…

Decoherence by engineered quantum baths

Davide Rossini, Tommaso Calarco, Vittorio Giovannetti +2

We introduce, and determine decoherence for, a wide class of non-trivial quantum spin baths which embrace Ising, XY and Heisenberg universality classes coupled to a two-level syste…

Strong coupling of single emitters to surface plasmons

D. E. Chang, A. S. Sorensen, P. R. Hemmer +1

We propose a method that enables strong, coherent coupling between individual optical emitters and electromagnetic excitations in conducting nano-structures. The excitations are op…

Theoretical analysis of the implementation of a quantum phase gate with neutral atoms on atom chips

E. Charron, M. A. Cirone, A. Negretti +2

We present a detailed, realistic analysis of the implementation of a proposal for a quantum phase gate based on atomic vibrational states, specializing it to neutral rubidium atoms…

Slow light in paraffin-coated Rb vapor cells

M. Klein, I. Novikova, D. F. Phillips +1

We present preliminary results from an experimental study of slow light in anti-relaxation-coated Rb vapor cells, and describe the construction and testing of such cells. The slow…

Schemes for robust quantum computation with polar molecules

S. F. Yelin, K. Kirby, R. Cote

We propose to use a new platform - ultracold polar molecules - for quantum computing with switchable interactions. The on/off switch is accomplished by selective excitation of one…

Dependences of the Casimir-Polder interaction between an atom and a cavity wall on atomic and material properties

V. M. Mostepanenko, J. F. Babb, A. O. Caride +2

The Casimir-Polder and van der Waals interactions between an atom and a flat cavity wall are investigated under the influence of real conditions including the dynamic polarizabilit…
