Fast collisional gate for fermionic atoms in an optical superlattice
Rafi Weill, Jonathan Nemirovsky, Yoav Sagi
Collisional gates in optical superlattices have recently achieved record fidelities, but their operation times are typically limited by tunneling. Here we propose and analyze an al…
Atomic interferometer based on optical tweezers
Jonathan Nemirovsky, Rafi Weill, Ilan Meltzer +1
Atomic interferometers measure forces and acceleration with exceptional precision. The conventional approach to atomic interferometry is to launch an atomic cloud into a ballistic…
Fast design and scaling of multi-qubit gates in large-scale trapped-ion quantum computers
Lee Peleg, David Schwerdt, Jonathan Nemirovsky +5
Quantum computers based on crystals of trapped ions are a prominent technology for quantum computation. A unique feature of trapped ions is their long-range Coulomb interactions, w…
Spatial adiabatic passage of ultracold atoms in optical tweezers
Yanay Florshaim, Elad Zohar, David Zeev Koplovich +5
Spatial adiabatic passage (SAP) is a process that facilitates the transfer of a wave packet between two localized modes that are not directly coupled, but rather interact through a…
Shaping Quantum Photonic States Using Free Electrons
Adi Ben Hayun, Ori Reinhardt, Jonathan Nemirovsky +3
It is a long-standing goal to generate robust deterministic states of light with unique quantum properties, such as squeezing, sub-Poissonian statistics and entanglement. It is of…
Fast universal two-qubit gate for neutral fermionic atoms in optical tweezers
Jonathan Nemirovsky, Yoav Sagi
An array of ultracold neutral atoms held in optical micro-traps is a promising platform for quantum computation. One of the major bottlenecks of this platform is the weak coupling…
Spin-Spacetime Censorship
Jonathan Nemirovsky, Eliahu Cohen, Ido Kaminer
Quantum entanglement and relativistic causality are key concepts in theoretical works seeking to unify quantum mechanics and gravity. In this article, we show that the interplay be…
Utilizing Bochners Theorem for Constrained Evaluation of Missing Fourier Data
Jonathan Nemirovsky, Efrat Shimron
A method is presented for estimating unknown Fourier domain (k-space) data using a small number of samples in that space. The method is derived from Bochners Theorem, and is termed…
Quantum Čerenkov Radiation: Spectral Cutoffs and the Role of Spin and Orbital Angular Momentum
Ido Kaminer, Maor Mutzafi, Amir Levy +7
We show that the well-known Čerenkov Effect contains new phenomena arising from the quantum nature of charged particles. The Čerenkov transition amplitudes allow coupling between t…
Shape-Preserving Accelerating Electromagnetic Wavepackets in Curved Space
Rivka Bekenstein, Jonathan Nemirovsky, Ido Kaminer +1
We present shape-preserving spatially accelerating electromagnetic wavepackets in curved space: wavepackets propagating along non-geodesic trajectories while recovering their struc…
Long-Lived Waveguides and Sound Wave Generation by Laser Filamentation
Liad Levi, Oren Lahav, Ron A. Nemirovsky +5
We discover long-lived (microsecond-scale) optical waveguiding in the wake of atmospheric laser filaments. We also observe the formation and then outward propagation of the consequ…
Sub-Wavelength Nonlinear Accelerating Beams
Ido Kaminer, Mordechai Segev
We show that optical nonlinearities allow sub-wavelength beams to propagate in circular trajectories without being attenuated in spite of their partially evanescent spectrum. Such…
Non-Paraxial Accelerating Beams
Ido Kaminer, Rivka Bekenstein, Jonathan Nemirovsky +1
We present the spatially accelerating solutions of the Maxwell equations. Such non-paraxial beams accelerate in a circular trajectory, thus generalizing the concept of Airy beams.…
