Interaction of Mechanical Oscillators Mediated by the Exchange of Virtual Photon Pairs
Omar Di Stefano, Alessio Settineri, Vincenzo Macrì +5
Two close parallel mirrors attract due to a small force (Casimir effect) originating from the electromagnetic quantum vacuum uctuations of the electromagnetic field. These vacuum u…
Heralded multiphoton states with coherent spin interactions in waveguide QED
V Paulisch, A González-Tudela, H J Kimble +1
WaveguideQEDoffers the possibility of generating strong coherent atomic interactions either through appropriate atomic configurations in the dissipative regime or in the bandgap re…
Hidden Vacuum Rabi oscillations: Dynamical Quantum Superpositions of On/Off Interaction between a Single Quantum Dot and a Microcavity
A. Ridolfo, R. Stassi, O. Di Stefano
We show that it is possible to realize quantum superpositions of switched-on and -off strong light-matter interaction in a single quantum dot- semiconductor microcavity system. Suc…
Long-lasting Quantum Memories: Extending the Coherence Time of Superconducting Artificial Atoms in the Ultrastrong-Coupling Regime
Roberto Stassi, Franco Nori
Quantum systems are affected by interactions with their environments, causing decoherence through two processes: pure dephasing and energy relaxation. For quantum information proce…
Quantum Nonlinear Optics without Photons
Roberto Stassi, Vincenzo Macrì, Anton Frisk Kockum +4
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion is a well-known process in quantum nonlinear optics in which a photon incident on a nonlinear crystal spontaneously splits into two photons.…
