Optimal control for one-qubit quantum sensing

F. Poggiali, P. Cappellaro, N. Fabbri

Quantum systems can be exquisite sensors thanks to their sensitivity to external perturbations. This same characteristic also makes them fragile to external noise. Quantum control…

Geometrically protected triple-point crossings in an optical lattice

I. C. Fulga, L. Fallani, M. Burrello

We show how to realize topologically protected crossings of three energy bands, integer-spin analogs of Weyl fermions, in three-dimensional optical lattices. Our proposal only invo…

-enhanced grey molasses on the transition of Rubidium-87 atoms

Sara Rosi, Alessia Burchianti, Stefano Conclave +4

Laser cooling based on dark states, i.e. states decoupled from light, has proven to be effective to increase the phase-space density of cold trapped atoms. Dark-states cooling requ…

Collision of impurities with Bose-Einstein condensates

F. Lingua, L. Lepori, F. Minardi +2

Quantum dynamics of impurities in a bath of bosons is a long-standing problem of solid-state, plasma, and atomic physics. Recent experimental and theoretical investigations with ul…

Directionality Fields generated by a Local Hilbert Transform

W. W. Ahmed, R. Herrero, M. Botey +3

We propose a new approach based on a local Hilbert transform to design non-Hermitian potentials generating arbitrary vector fields of directionality, p(r), with desired shapes and…

THz time-domain spectroscopic investigations of thin films

A. Taschin, P. Bartolini, J. Tasseva +1

THz time domain spectroscopy is a powerful technique enabling the investigation of different materials in the far-infrared frequency range. Even if nowadays this technique is well…

Crossing Over from Attractive to Repulsive Interactions in a Tunneling Bosonic Josephson Junction

G. Spagnolli, G. Semeghini, L. Masi +9

We explore the interplay between tunneling and interatomic interactions in the dynamics of a bosonic Josephson junction. We tune the scattering length of an atomic K Bose-Ei…

Majorana Quasi-Particles Protected by Angular Momentum Conservation

F. Iemini, L. Mazza, L. Fallani +3

We show how angular momentum conservation can stabilise a symmetry-protected quasi-topological phase of matter supporting Majorana quasi-particles as edge modes in one-dimensional…

Graphene-based electron transport layers in perovskite solar cells: a step-up for an efficient carrier collection

F. Biccari, F. Gabelloni, E. Burzi +9

The electron transport layer (ETL) plays a fundamental role in perovskite solar cells. Recently, graphene-based ETLs have been proved to be good candidate for scalable fabrication…
