The Impact of Imperfect Timekeeping on Quantum Control
Jake Xuereb, Florian Meier, Paul Erker +2
In order to unitarily evolve a quantum system, an agent requires knowledge of time, a parameter which no physical clock can ever perfectly characterise. In this letter, we study ho…

Fundamental accuracy-resolution trade-off for timekeeping devices
Florian Meier, Emanuel Schwarzhans, Paul Erker +1
From a thermodynamic point of view, all clocks are driven by irreversible processes. Additionally, one can use oscillatory systems to temporally modulate the thermodynamic flux tow…
