A two-carrier scheme: evading the 3dB quantum penalty of heterodyne readout in gravitational-wave detectors

Teng Zhang, Philip Jones, Jiří Smetana +4

Precision measurements using traditional heterodyne readout suffer a 3dB quantum noise penalty compared with homodyne readout. The extra noise is caused by the quantum fluctuations…

Pykat: Python package for modelling precision optical interferometers

Daniel D. Brown, Philip Jones, Samuel Rowlinson +4

\textsc{Pykat} is a Python package which extends the popular optical interferometer modelling software \textsc{Finesse}. It provides a more modern and efficient user interface for…

Implications of the Quantum Noise Target for the Einstein Telescope Infrastructure Design

Philip Jones, Teng Zhang, Haixing Miao +1

The design of a complex instrument such as Einstein Telescope (ET) is based on a target sensitivity derived from an elaborate case for scientific exploration. At the same time it i…

Converting the signal-recycling cavity into an unstable optomechanical filter to enhance the detection bandwidth of gravitational-wave detectors

Joe Bentley, Philip Jones, Denis Martynov +2

Current and future interferometeric gravitational-wave detectors are limited predominantly by shot noise at high frequencies. Shot noise is reduced by introducing arm cavities and…

Highly Controllable Qubit-Bath Coupling Based on a Sequence of Resonators

P. J. Jones, J. Salmilehto, M. Möttönen

Combating the detrimental effects of noise remains a major challenge in realizing a scalable quantum computer. To help to address this challenge, we introduce a model realizing a c…

Geometric derivation of the quantum speed limit

Philip J. Jones, Pieter Kok

The Mandelstam-Tamm and Margolus-Levitin inequalities play an important role in the study of quantum mechanical processes in Nature, since they provide general limits on the speed…
