Nested Trampoline Resonators for Optomechanics
Matthew J. Weaver, Brian Pepper, Fernando Luna +7
Two major challenges in the development of optomechanical devices are achieving a low mechanical and optical loss rate and vibration isolation from the environment. We address both…
Adiabatic computing using 2-local Hamiltonians on a line
Brian Pepper
Here we consider the power of a line of quantum particles under a nearest-neighbor 2-local Hamiltonian. Currently, it has been shown that 8-state particles are sufficient for unive…
Macroscopic superpositions via nested interferometry: finite temperature and decoherence considerations
Brian Pepper, Evan Jeffrey, Roohollah Ghobadi +2
Recently there has been much interest in optomechanical devices for the production of macroscopic quantum states. Here we focus on a proposed scheme for achieving macroscopic super…
Optomechanical superpositions via nested interferometry
Brian Pepper, Roohollah Ghobadi, Evan Jeffrey +2
We present a scheme for achieving macroscopic quantum superpositions in optomechanical systems by using single photon postselection and detecting them with nested interferometers.…
NMR multiple quantum coherences in quasi-one-dimensional spin systems: Comparison with ideal spin-chain dynamics
Wenxian Zhang, Paola Cappellaro, Natania Antler +5
The 19F spins in a crystal of fluorapatite have often been used to experimentally approximate a one-dimensional spin system. Under suitable multi-pulse control, the nuclear spin dy…
