Efficient entanglement distillation without quantum memory

Daniela Abdelkhalek, Mareike Syllwasschy, Nicolas J. Cerf +2

Entanglement distribution between distant parties is an essential component to most quantum communication protocols. Unfortunately, decoherence effects such as phase noise in optic…

Efficient tomography of a quantum many-body system

B. P. Lanyon, C. Maier, M. Holzäpfel +10

Quantum state tomography (QST) is the gold standard technique for obtaining an estimate for the state of small quantum systems in the laboratory. Its application to systems with mo…

Light shifts in atomic Bragg diffraction

Enno Giese, Alexander Friedrich, Sven Abend +2

Bragg diffraction of an atomic wave packet in a retroreflective geometry with two counterpropagating optical lattices exhibits a light shift induced phase. We show that the tempora…

Solid-state ensemble of highly entangled photon sources at rubidium atomic transitions

Robert Keil, Michael Zopf, Yan Chen +4

Semiconductor InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown by the Stranski-Krastanov method are among the leading candidates for the deterministic generation of polarization entangled photon pairs…

The topological classification of one-dimensional symmetric quantum walks

C. Cedzich, T. Geib, F. A. Grünbaum +4

We give a topological classification of quantum walks on an infinite 1D lattice, which obey one of the discrete symmetry groups of the tenfold way, have a gap around some eigenvalu…

Nonlinear Quantum Optics in Optomechanical Nanoscale Waveguides

Hashem Zoubi, Klemens Hammerer

We explore the possibility of achieving a significant nonlinear phase shift among photons propagating in nanoscale waveguides exploiting interactions among photons that are mediate…
