Measurement of the excited-state transverse hyperfine coupling in NV centers via dynamic nuclear polarization

F. Poggiali, P. Cappellaro, N. Fabbri

Precise knowledge of a quantum system's Hamiltonian is a critical pre-requisite for its use in many quantum information technologies. Here, we report a method for the precise chara…

Quantum nondemolition measurement of optical field fluctuations by optomechanical interaction

A. Pontin, M. Bonaldi, A. Borrielli +7

According to quantum mechanics, if we keep observing a continuous variable we generally disturb its evolution. For a class of observables, however, it is possible to implement a so…

Thermometry of bosonic mixtures in Optical Lattices via Demixing

F. Lingua, B. Capogrosso-Sansone, F. Minardi +1

Motivated by recent experiments and theoretical investigations on binary mixtures, we investigate the miscible-immiscible transition at finite temperature by means of Quantum Monte…

Tailoring correlations of the local density of states in disordered photonic materials

F. Riboli, F. Uccheddu, G. Monaco +4

We present experimental evidence for the different mechanisms driving the fluctuations of the local density of states (LDOS) in disordered photonic systems. We establish a clear li…

Quantum Zeno Dynamics through stochastic protocols

Matthias M. Müller, Stefano Gherardini, Filippo Caruso

Quantum Zeno Dynamics is the phenomenon that the observation or strong driving of a quantum system can freeze its dynamics to a subspace, effectively truncating the Hilbert space o…

THz Dynamics of Nanoconfined Water by Ultrafast Optical Spectroscopy

A. Taschin, P. Bartolini, R. Torre

We investigated the vibrational dynamics and the structural relaxation of water nanoconfined in porous silica samples with pore size of 4 nm at different levels of hydration and te…

Observation of Quantum Phase Transitions with Parity-Symmetry Breaking and Hysteresis

A. Trenkwalder, G. Spagnolli, G. Semeghini +8

Symmetry-breaking quantum phase transitions play a key role in several condensed matter, cosmology and nuclear physics theoretical models. Its observation in real systems is often…

Ultrabright single-photon source on diamond with electrical pumping

Dmitry Yu. Fedyanin, Mario Agio

The recently demonstrated electroluminescence of color centers in diamond makes them one of the best candidates for room temperature single-photon sources. However, the reported em…
