Quantum Zeno switch for single-photon coherent transport
Lan Zhou, S. Yang, Yu-xi Liu +2
Using a dynamical quantum Zeno effect, we propose a general approach to control the coupling between a two-level system (TLS) and its surroundings, by modulating the energy level s…
Kinetics of proton pumping in cytochrome c oxidase
Anatoly Yu. Smirnov, Lev G. Mourokh, Franco Nori
We propose a simple model of cytochrome c oxidase, including four redox centers and four protonable sites, to study the time evolution of electrostatically coupled electron and pro…
Weak and strong measurement of a qubit using a switching-based detector
S. Ashhab, J. Q. You, Franco Nori
We analyze the operation of a switching-based detector that probes a qubit's observable that does not commute with the qubit's Hamiltonian, leading to a nontrivial interplay betwee…
Coupling strength estimation for spin chains despite restricted access
Daniel Burgarth, Koji Maruyama, Franco Nori
Quantum control requires full knowledge of the system many-body Hamiltonian. In many cases this information is not directly available due to restricted access to the system. Here w…
Tuning of metal-insulator transition of two-dimensional electrons at parylene/SrTiO interface by electric field
H. Nakamura, H. Tomita, H. Akimoto +6
Electrostatic carrier doping using a field-effect-transistor structure is an intriguing approach to explore electronic phases by critical control of carrier concentration. We demon…
Broken time-reversal symmetry in Josephson junction involving two-band superconductors
T. K. Ng, N. Nagaosa
A novel time-reversal symmetry breaking state is found theoretically in the Josephson junction between the two-gap superconductor and the conventional s-wave superconductor. This o…
Detector Backaction on the Self-Consistent Bound State in Quantum Point Contacts
Y. Yoon, M. -G. Kang, T. Morimoto +5
Bound-state (BS) formation in quantum point contacts (QPCs) may offer a convenient way to localize and probe single spins. In this letter, we investigate how such BSs are affected…
Quantum super-cavity with atomic mirrors
Lan Zhou, H. Dong, Yu-xi Liu +2
We study single-photon transport in an array of coupled microcavities where two two-level atomic systems are embedded in two separate cavities of the array. We find that a single-p…
Topological states and braiding statistics using quantum circuits
J. Q. You, Xiao-Feng Shi, Franco Nori
Using superconducting quantum circuits, we propose an approach to construct a Kitaev lattice, i.e., an anisotropic spin model on a honeycomb lattice with three types of nearest-nei…
Protecting entanglement in superconducting qubits
Jing Zhang, Yu-xi Liu, Chun-Wen Li +2
When a two-qubit system is initially maximally-entangled, two independent decoherence channels, one per qubit, would greatly reduce the entanglement of the two-qubit system when it…
Electronic properties of the armchair graphene nanoribbon
A. V. Rozhkov, S. Savel'ev, Franco Nori
We investigate the electronic band structure of an undoped graphene armchair nanoribbon. We demonstrate that such nanoribbon always has a gap in its electronic spectrum. Indeed, ev…

We predict a new class of excitations propagating along a Josephson vortex in two-dimensional Josephson junctions. These excitations are associated with the distortion of a Josephs…

We study the cooling of a mechanical resonator (MR) that is capacitively coupled to a double quantum dot (DQD). The MR is cooled by the dynamical backaction induced by the capaciti…
Localization-delocalization transition of a polaron near an impurity
A. S. Mishchenko, N. Nagaosa, A. Alvermann +4
We solve the problem of polaron localization on an attractive impurity by means of direct-space Diagrammatic Monte Carlo implemented for the system in the thermodynamic limit. In p…
