Tunable Josephson voltage source for quantum circuits
J. -L. Smirr, P. Manset, Ç. Ö. Girit
Noisy voltage sources can be a limiting factor for fundamental physics experiments as well as for device applications in quantum information, mesoscopic circuits, magnetometry, and…
Spectral Signatures of Non-Trivial Topology in a Superconducting Circuit
L. Peyruchat, R. H. Rodriguez, J. -L. Smirr +2
Topology, like symmetry, is a fundamental concept in understanding general properties of physical systems. In condensed matter, nontrivial topology may manifest itself as singular…
Magnetic freeze-out and anomalous Hall effect in ZrTe
Adrien Gourgout, Maxime Leroux, Jean-Loup Smirr +10
The ultra-quantum limit is achieved when a magnetic field confines an electron gas in its lowest spin-polarised Landau level. Here we show that in this limit, electron doped ZrTe$_…
Superconducting on-chip spectrometer for mesoscopic quantum systems
J. Griesmar, R. H. Rodriguez, V. Benzoni +4
Spectroscopy is a powerful tool to probe physical, chemical, and biological systems. Recent advances in microfabrication have introduced novel, intriguing mesoscopic quantum system…
Scattering description of Andreev molecules
J. -D. Pillet, V. Benzoni, J. Griesmar +2
An Andreev molecule is a system of closely spaced superconducting weak links accommodating overlapping Andreev Bound States. Recent theoretical proposals have considered one-dimens…
Nonlocal Josephson effect in Andreev molecules
J. -D. Pillet, V. Benzoni, J. Griesmar +2
We propose the "Andreev molecule", an artificial quantum system composed of two closely spaced Josephson junctions. The coupling between Josephson junctions in an Andreev molecule…
Simple performance evaluation of pulsed spontaneous parametric down-conversion sources for quantum communications
Jean-Loup Smirr, Sylvain Guilbaud, Joe Ghalbouni +4
Fast and complete characterization of pulsed spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) sources is important for applications in quantum information processing and communication…
Analysis of Elliptically Polarized Maximally Entangled States for Bell Inequality Tests
Anthony Martin, Jeanloup Smirr, Florian Kaiser +6
When elliptically polarized maximally entangled states are considered, i.e., states having a non random phase factor between the two bipartite polarization components, the standard…
Optimal photon-pair single mode coupling in narrow-band spontaneous parametric down-conversion with arbitrary pump profile
Jean-Loup Smirr, Matthieu Deconinck, Robert Frey +3
A theoretical study of the performance of single-mode coupled spontaneous parametric downconversion sources is proposed, which only requires very few assumptions of practical inter…
