Resilient quantum electron microscopy
Hiroshi Okamoto
We investigate the fundamental limit of biological quantum electron microscopy, which is designed to go beyond the shot noise limit. Inelastic scattering is expected to be the main…
A full-vortex flux qubit for charged particle optics
Hiroshi Okamoto
We introduce a design of a superconducting flux qubit capable of holding a full magnetic flux quantum , which arguably is an essential property for applications in charged p…
A quantum mechanical scheme to reduce radiation damage in electron microscopy
Hiroshi Okamoto, Tatiana Latychevskaia, Hans-Werner Fink
We show that radiation damage to unstained biological specimens is not an intractable problem in electron microscopy. When a structural hypothesis of a specimen is available, quant…
A quantum interface to charged particles in a vacuum
Hiroshi Okamoto
A superconducting qubit device suitable for interacting with a flying electron has recently been proposed [H. Okamoto and Y. Nagatani, Appl. Phys. Lett. \textbf{104}, 062604 (2014)…
Measurement errors in entanglement-assisted electron microscopy
Hiroshi Okamoto
The major resolution-limiting factor in cryoelectron microscopy of unstained biological specimens is radiation damage by the very electrons that are used to probe the specimen stru…
Entanglement-assisted electron microscopy based on a flux qubit
Hiroshi Okamoto, Yukinori Nagatani
A notorious problem in high-resolution biological electron microscopy is radiation damage to the specimen caused by probe electrons. Hence, acquisition of data with minimal number…
