Phonon-mediated population inversion in a semiconductor quantum-dot cavity system

S. Hughes, H. J. Carmichael

We investigate pump-induced exciton inversion in a quantum-dot cavity system with continuous wave drive. Using a polaron-based master equation, we demonstrate excited-state populat…

Stationary inversion of a two level system coupled to an off-resonant cavity with strong dissipation

S. Hughes, H. J. Carmichael

We present an off-resonant excitation scheme that realizes pronounced stationary inversion in a two level system. The created inversion exploits a cavity-assisted two photon resona…

Onset of a Quantum Phase Transition with a Trapped Ion Quantum Simulator

R. Islam, E. E. Edwards, K. Kim +8

A quantum simulator is a well controlled quantum system that can simulate the behavior of another quantum system which may require exponentially large classical computing resources…

Entangled-state cycles from conditional quantum evolution

M. Gu, S. Parkins, H. J. Carmichael

A system of cascaded qubits interacting via the oneway exchange of photons is studied. While for general operating conditions the system evolves to a superposition of Bell states (…

Distinguishing two single-mode Gaussian states by homodyne detection: An information-theoretic approach

Hyunchul Nha, H. J. Carmichael

It is known that the quantum fidelity, as a measure of the closeness of two quantum states, is operationally equivalent to the minimal overlap of the probability distributions of t…

Entanglement within the Quantum Trajectory Description of Open Quantum Systems

Hyunchul Nha, H. J. Carmichael

The degree of entanglement in an open quantum system varies according to how information in the environment is read. A measure of this contextual entanglement is introduced based o…
