Dissipatively Stabilized 0-n Fock Qubits for Noise-Biased Quantum Computing

Su Direkci, Simon Lieu, Kyungjoo Noh +1

Noise-biased qubits have bit-flip errors that are exponentially suppressed relative to phase-flip errors, and offer a promising route toward fault-tolerant quantum computing. Howev…

Optimized Quantum States for Sensing in the Presence of Loss and Phase Noise

Shruti Maliakal, Zachary Mann, Christopher Wipf +3

Squeezed vacuum lets gravitational-wave detectors and other quantum sensors surpass the standard quantum limit, and is optimal in the loss-limited regime; phase noise breaks this o…

Extending the dynamic range in quantum frequency estimation with sequential weak measurements

Su Direkci, Manuel Endres, Tuvia Gefen

Quantum metrology explores optimal quantum protocols for parameter estimation. In the context of optical atomic clocks, conventional protocols focus on optimal input states and mea…

Characterizing stationary optomechanical entanglement in the presence of non-Markovian noise

Su Direkci, Klemens Winkler, Corentin Gut +2

We study an optomechanical system, where a mechanical oscillator interacts with a Gaussian input optical field. In the linearized picture, we analytically prove that if the input l…

Heisenberg-limited Bayesian phase estimation with low-depth digital quantum circuits

Su Direkci, Ran Finkelstein, Manuel Endres +1

Optimal phase estimation protocols require complex state preparation and readout schemes, generally unavailable or unscalable in many quantum platforms. We develop and analyze a sc…

Macroscopic quantum entanglement between an optomechanical cavity and a continuous field in presence of non-Markovian noise

Su Direkci, Klemens Winkler, Corentin Gut +3

Probing quantum entanglement with macroscopic objects allows us to test quantum mechanics in new regimes. One way to realize such behavior is to couple a macroscopic mechanical osc…

Causal State Estimation and the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

Junxin Chen, Benjamin B. Lane, Su Direkci +5

The observables of a noisy quantum system can be estimated by appropriately filtering the records of their continuous measurement. Such filtering is relevant for state estimation a…
