Demonstration of a Quantum Noise Limited Traveling-Wave Parametric Amplifier
Nikita Klimovich, Peter Day, Shibo Shu +3
Recent progress in quantum computing and the development of novel detector technologies for astrophysics is driving the need for high-gain, broadband, and quantum-limited amplifier…
Development of Superconducting On-chip Fourier Transform Spectrometers
R. Basu Thakur, A. Steiger, S. Shu +6
Superconducting On-chip Fourier Transform Spectrometers (SOFTS) are broadband, compact and electronic interferometers. Being extremely compact, SOFTS can fit into standard antenna…
Nonlinearity and wideband parametric amplification in an NbTiN microstrip transmission line
Shibo Shu, Nikita Klimovich, Byeong Ho Eom +4
The nonlinear response associated with the current dependence of the superconducting kinetic inductance was studied in capacitively shunted NbTiN microstrip transmission lines. It…
Improving the dynamic range of single photon counting kinetic inductance detectors
Nicholas Zobrist, Nikita Klimovich, Byeong Ho Eom +8
We develop a simple coordinate transformation which can be employed to compensate for the nonlinearity introduced by a Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector's (MKID) homodyne reado…
Demonstration of an electric field conjugation algorithm for improved starlight rejection through a single mode optical fiber
Jorge Llop Sayson, Garreth Ruane, Dimitri Mawet +8
Linking a coronagraph instrument to a spectrograph via a single mode optical fiber is a pathway towards detailed characterization of exoplanet atmospheres with current and future g…
Baseline Requirements For Detecting Biosignatures with the HabEx and LUVOIR Mission Concepts
Ji Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Renyu Hu +3
A milestone in understanding life in the universe is the detection of biosignature gases in the atmospheres of habitable exoplanets. Future mission concepts under study by the 2020…
Observing Exoplanets with High-Dispersion Coronagraphy. II. Demonstration of an Active Single-Mode Fiber Injection Unit
Dimitri Mawet, Garreth Ruane, Wenhao Xuan +12
High-dispersion coronagraphy (HDC) optimally combines high contrast imaging techniques such as adaptive optics/wavefront control plus coronagraphy to high spectral resolution spect…
Magnons and Phonons Optically Driven Out of Local Equilibrium in a Magnetic Insulator
Kyongmo An, Kevin S. Olsson, Annie Weathers +9
Magnons are the energy quanta of fundamental spin excitations, namely spin waves, and they can make a considerable contribution to energy transport in some magnetic materials in a…
