Quantum many-body scars

Christopher J. Turner, Alexios A. Michailidis, Dmitry A. Abanin +2

Certain wave functions of non-interacting quantum chaotic systems can exhibit "scars" in the fabric of their real-space density profile. Quantum scarred wave functions concentrate…

Quantum Secrecy in Thermal States

Elizabeth Newton, Anne Ghesquière, Freya L. Wilson +2

We propose to perform quantum key distribution using quantum correlations occurring within thermal states produced by low power sources such as LED's. These correlations are exploi…

Memory-Assisted Quantum Key Distribution with a Single Nitrogen Vacancy Center

Nicolo Lo Piparo, Mohsen Razavi, William J. Munro

Memory-assisted measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MA-MDI-QKD) is a promising scheme that aims to improve the rate-versus-distance behavior of a QKD system by…

Quantum-Classical Access Networks with Embedded Optical Wireless Links

Osama Elmabrok, Masoud Ghalaii, Mohsen Razavi

We examine the applicability of wireless indoor quantum key distribution (QKD) in hybrid quantum-classical networks. We propose practical configurations that would enable wireless…

Decoherence in excited atoms by low-energy scattering

Diego A. Quiñones, Benjamin Varcoe

We describe a new mechanism of decoherence in excited atoms as a result of thermal particles scattering by the atomic nucleus. It is based on the idea that a single scattering will…

Hybrid Photonic Loss Resilient Entanglement Swapping

Ryan C. Parker, Jaewoo Joo, Mohsen Razavi +1

We propose a scheme of loss resilient entanglement swapping between two distant parties in lossy optical fibre. In this scheme, Alice and Bob each begin with a pair of entangled no…
