Graduate Training in Quantum Information Science and Engineering: Lessons, Challenges, and a Roadmap from the NSF Research Traineeship Programs
Yohannes Abate, Victor Acosta, Alessandro Alabastri +31
Since 2019, eighteen NSF Research Traineeship (NRT) awards in quantum information science and engineering (QISE) and adjacent fields have been funded, constituting the largest NSF-…
Measurement resolution enhanced coherence for lattice fermions
H. M. Hurst, Yik Haw Teoh, I. B. Spielman
Weak measurement enables the extraction of targeted information from a quantum system while minimizing decoherence due to measurement backaction. However, in many-body quantum syst…
Oscillatory Edge Modes in Two Dimensional Spin-Torque Oscillator Arrays
Shivam Kamboj, Rembert A. Duine, Benedetta Flebus +1
Spin torque oscillators (STOs) are dissipative magnetic systems that provide a natural platform for exploring non-Hermitian phenomena. We theoretically study a two-dimensional (2d)…
Feedback cooled Bose-Einstein condensation: near and far from equilibrium
Evan P. Yamaguchi, Hilary M. Hurst, I. B. Spielman
Continuously measured interacting quantum systems almost invariably heat, causing loss of quantum coherence. Here, we study Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) subject to repeated wea…
Non-linear dynamics of the non-Hermitian Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model
Pieter M. Gunnink, Benedetta Flebus, Hilary M. Hurst +1
We numerically determine the robustness of the lasing edge modes in a spin-torque oscillator array that realizes the non-Hermitian Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. Previous studies foun…
Building a Quantum Engineering Undergraduate Program
Abraham Asfaw, Alexandre Blais, Kenneth R. Brown +34
The rapidly growing quantum information science and engineering (QISE) industry will require both quantum-aware and quantum-proficient engineers at the bachelor's level. We provide…
Feedback Induced Magnetic Phases in Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates
Hilary M. Hurst, Shangjie Guo, I. B. Spielman
Weak measurement in tandem with real-time feedback control is a new route toward engineering novel non-equilibrium quantum matter. Here we develop a theoretical toolbox for quantum…
Non-Hermitian topology of one-dimensional spin-torque oscillator arrays
Benedetta Flebus, Rembert A. Duine, Hilary M. Hurst
Magnetic systems have been extensively studied both from a fundamental physics perspective and as building blocks for a variety of applications. Their topological properties, in pa…
Electron Induced Massive Dynamics of Magnetic Domain Walls
Hilary M. Hurst, Victor Galitski, Tero T. Heikkilä
We study the dynamics of domain walls (DWs) in a metallic, ferromagnetic nanowire. We develop a Keldysh collective coordinate technique to describe the effect of conduction electro…
Measurement induced dynamics and stabilization of spinor condensate domain walls
Hilary M. Hurst, I. B. Spielman
Weakly measuring many-body systems and allowing for feedback in real-time can simultaneously create and measure new phenomena in strongly correlated quantum systems. We study the d…
Induced quantum dot probe for material characterization
Yun-Pil Shim, Rusko Ruskov, Hilary M. Hurst +1
We propose a non-destructive means of characterizing a semiconductor wafer via measuring parameters of an induced quantum dot on the material system of interest with a separate pro…
Kinetic theory of dark solitons with tunable friction
Hilary M. Hurst, Dmitry K. Efimkin, I. B. Spielman +1
We study controllable friction in a system consisting of a dark soliton in a one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to a non-interacting Fermi gas. The fermions act as im…
Brownian motion of solitons in a Bose-Einstein Condensate
L. M. Aycock, H. M. Hurst, D. K. Efimkin +4
For the first time, we observed and controlled the Brownian motion of solitons. We launched solitonic excitations in highly elongated BECs and showed that a dilute b…
Real space mean-field theory of a spin-1 Bose gas in synthetic dimensions
Hilary M. Hurst, Justin H. Wilson, J. H. Pixley +2
The internal degrees of freedom provided by ultracold atoms give a route for realizing higher dimensional physics in systems with limited spatial dimensions. Non-spatial degrees of…
Transport of Dirac electrons in a random magnetic field in topological heterostructures
Hilary M. Hurst, Dmitry K. Efimkin, Victor Galitski
We consider the proximity effect between Dirac states at the surface of a topological insulator and a ferromagnet with easy plane anisotropy, which is described by the \emph{XY}-mo…
Charged skyrmions on the surface of a topological insulator
Hilary M. Hurst, Dmitry K. Efimkin, Jiadong Zang +1
We consider the interplay between magnetic skyrmions in an insulating thin film and the Dirac surface states of a 3D topological insulator (TI), coupled by proximity effect. The ma…
