How the result of a measurement of a component of the spin of a spin-1/2 particle can turn out to be 100 without using weak measurements
S. Ashhab, Franco Nori
We discuss two questions related to the concept of weak values as seen from the standard quantum-mechanics point of view. In the first part of the paper, we describe a scenario whe…
Voltage-driven quantum oscillations of conductance in graphene
V. A. Yampol'skii, S. S. Apostolov, Z. A. Maizelis +2
Locally-gated single-layer graphene sheets have unusual discrete energy states inside the potential barrier induced by a finite-width gate. These states are localized outside the D…
Cooling and squeezing the fluctuations of a nanomechanical beam by indirect quantum feedback control
Jing Zhang, Yu-xi Liu, Franco Nori
We study cooling and squeezing the fluctuations of a nanomechanical beam using quantum feedback control. In our model, the nanomechanical beam is coupled to a transmission line res…
Probing Nano-Mechanical QED Effects
Y. B. Gao, S. Yang, Yu-xi Liu +2
We propose and study an "intrinsic probing" approach, without introducing any external detector, to mimic cavity QED effects in a qubit-nanomechanical resonator system. This metall…
Perfect function transfer and interference effects in interacting boson lattices
Lian-Ao Wu, Adam Miranowicz, XiangBin Wang +2
We show how to perfectly transfer, without state initialization and remote collaboration, arbitrary functions in interacting boson lattices. We describe a possible implementation o…
Efficient quantum algorithm for preparing molecular-system-like states on a quantum computer
Hefeng Wang, S. Ashhab, Franco Nori
We present an efficient quantum algorithm for preparing a pure state on a quantum computer, where the quantum state corresponds to that of a molecular system with a given number $m…
