Prospects for using integrated atom-photon junctions for quantum information processing

R. A. Nyman, S. Scheel, E. A. Hinds

We investigate the use of integrated, microfabricated photonic-atomic junctions for quantum information processing applications. The coupling between atoms and light is enhanced by…

Cold atoms near superconductors: Atomic spin coherence beyond the Johnson noise limit

B. Kasch, H. Hattermann, D. Cano +6

We report on the measurement of atomic spin coherence near the surface of a superconducting niobium wire. As compared to normal conducting metal surfaces, the atomic spin coherence…

Dynamics of thermal Casimir-Polder forces on polar molecules

S. A. Ellingsen, S. Y. Buhmann, S. Scheel

We study the influence of thermal Casimir-Polder forces on the near-surface trapping of cold polar molecules, with emphasis on LiH and YbF near an Au surface at room temperature. W…

Spatial decoherence near metallic surfaces

R. Fermani, S. Scheel, P. L. Knight

We present a first-principles derivation of spatial atomic-sublevel decoherence near dielectric and metallic surfaces. The theory is based on the electromagnetic-field quantization…

Hot entanglement in a simple dynamical model

S. Scheel, J. Eisert, P. L. Knight +1

How mixed can one component of a bi-partite system be initially and still become entangled through interaction with a thermalized partner? We address this question here. In particu…
