Phonon controlled mechanical memory via pinning and depinning of transition waves
Samuele Ferracin, Dengge Jin, Vincent Tournat +1
Multistable mechanical metamaterials enable programmable transitions between discrete stable states through propagating kink transition waves (TWs). Yet controlling these kinks typ…
Effect of discreteness on domain wall stability in a plate coupled to a foundation of bistable elements
Dengge Jin, Samuele Ferracin, Vincent Tournat +1
Surfaces and structures capable of multiple stable configurations have attracted growing interest for on-demand shape morphing. In this work, we consider an elastic compliant plate…
A Practical Introduction to Benchmarking and Characterization of Quantum Computers
Akel Hashim, Long B. Nguyen, Noah Goss +16
Rapid progress in quantum technology has transformed quantum computing and quantum information science from theoretical possibilities into tangible engineering challenges. Breakthr…
When Clifford benchmarks are sufficient; estimating application performance with scalable proxy circuits
Seth Merkel, Timothy Proctor, Samuele Ferracin +4
The goal of benchmarking is to determine how far the output of a noisy system is from its ideal behavior; this becomes exceedingly difficult for large quantum systems where classic…
