Spectrally enhanced gravitational redshift signals in photonic interferometry

Jerzy Paczos, Piotr T. Grochowski, Natalia Bruno +3

Quantum mechanics and general relativity are remarkably successful, yet their joint predictions remain beyond direct experimental reach. Photonic interferometers operating in a gra…

Error Correction of Beamsplitter-Generated Entangled GKP States

Moritz Fontboté-Schmidt, Jeremy Metzner, Florence Berterottière +8

To be useful, quantum computers will be required to successfully correct errors occurring at the hardware level. Bosonic codes provide a hardware-efficient option for error correct…

Tweezer-assisted subwavelength positioning of atomic arrays in an optical cavity

Matthias Seubert, Lukas Hartung, Stephan Welte +2

We present an experimental technique that enables the preparation of defect-free arrays of 87Rb atoms within a microscopic high-finesse optical standing-wave cavity. By employing o…

A nondestructive Bell-state measurement on two distant atomic qubits

Stephan Welte, Philip Thomas, Lukas Hartung +5

One of the most fascinating aspects of quantum networks is their capability to distribute entanglement as a nonlocal communication resource. In a first step, this requires network-…

Two-qubit operations for finite-energy Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill encodings

Ivan Rojkov, Paul Moser Röggla, Martin Wagener +4

We present techniques for performing two-qubit gates on Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) codes with finite energy, and find that operations designed for ideal infinite-energy codes…

Quantum Teleportation between Remote Qubit Memories with Only a Single Photon as a Resource

Stefan Langenfeld, Stephan Welte, Lukas Hartung +5

Quantum teleportation enables the deterministic exchange of qubits via lossy channels. While it is commonly believed that unconditional teleportation requires a preshared entangled…

A Quantum-Logic Gate between Distant Quantum-Network Modules

Severin Daiss, Stefan Langenfeld, Stephan Welte +5

The big challenge in quantum computing is to realize scalable multi-qubit systems with cross-talk free addressability and efficient coupling of arbitrarily selected qubits. Quantum…

A photon-photon quantum gate based on a single atom in an optical resonator

Bastian Hacker, Stephan Welte, Gerhard Rempe +1

Two photons in free space pass each other undisturbed. This is ideal for the faithful transmission of information, but prohibits an interaction between the photons as required for…
