Heterodyne sensing of microwaves with a quantum sensor
(2021) Meinel, Jonas; Vorobyov, Vadim; Yavkin, Boris; Dasari, Durga; Sumiya, Hitoshi; Onoda, Shinobu; Isoya, Junichi; Wrachtrup, Jörg
Diamond quantum sensors are sensitive to weak microwave magnetic fields resonant to the spin transitions. However, the spectral resolution in such protocols is ultimately limited by the sensor lifetime. Here, we demonstrate a heterodyne detection method for microwaves (MW) leading to a lifetime independent spectral resolution in the GHz range. We reference the MW signal to a local oscillator by generating the initial superposition state from a coherent source. Experimentally, we achieve a spectral resolution below 1 Hz for a 4 GHz signal far below the sensor lifetime limit of kilohertz. Furthermore, we show control over the interaction of the MW-field with the two-level system by applying dressing fields, pulsed Mollow absorption and Floquet dynamics under strong longitudinal radio frequency drive. While pulsed Mollow absorption leads to improved sensitivity, the Floquet dynamics allow robust control, independent from the system’s resonance frequency. Our work is important for future studies in sensing weak microwave signals in a wide frequency range with high spectral resolution.

Character of doped holes in Nd1-xSrxNiO2
(2021) Plienbumrung, Tharathep; Schmid, Michael Thobias; Daghofer, Maria; Oleś, Andrzej M.
We investigate charge distribution in the recently discovered high-𝑇𝑐 superconductors, layered nickelates. With increasing value of charge-transfer energy, we observe the expected crossover from the cuprate to the local triplet regime upon hole doping. We find that the 𝑑-𝑝 Coulomb interaction 𝑈𝑑𝑝 makes Zhang-Rice singlets less favorable, while the amplitude of local triplets at Ni ions is enhanced. By investigating the effective two-band model with orbitals of 𝑥2-𝑦2 and s symmetries we show that antiferromagnetic interactions dominate for electron doping. The screened interactions for the s band suggest the importance of rare-earth atoms in superconducting nickelates.

Single-band versus two-band description of magnetism in infinite-layer nickelates
(2023) Plienbumrung, Tharathep; Daghofer, Maria; Morée, Jean-Baptiste; Oleś, Andrzej M.
We present a weak-coupling analysis of magnetism in infinite-layer nickelates, where we compare a single-band description with a two-band model. Both models predict that (i) hybridization due to hopping is negligible, and (𝑖𝑖) the magnetic properties are characterized by very similar dynamic structure factors, 𝑆(𝑘⃗ ,𝜔), at the points (𝜋,𝜋,0) and (𝜋,𝜋,𝜋). This gives effectively a two-dimensional description of the magnetic properties.

Correlations for computation and computation for correlations
(2021) Demirel, Bülent; Weng, Weikai; Thalacker, Christopher; Hoban, Matty; Barz, Stefanie
Quantum correlations are central to the foundations of quantum physics and form the basis of quantum technologies. Here, our goal is to connect quantum correlations and computation: using quantum correlations as a resource for computation - and vice versa, using computation to test quantum correlations. We derive Bell-type inequalities that test the capacity of quantum states for computing Boolean functions within a specific model of computation and experimentally investigate them using 4-photon Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states. Furthermore, we show how the resource states can be used to specifically compute Boolean functions - which can be used to test and verify the non-classicality of the underlying quantum states. The connection between quantum correlation and computability shown here has applications in quantum technologies, and is important for networked computing being performed by measurements on distributed multipartite quantum states.

Integrated optoelectronic devices using lab‐on‐fiber technology
(2022) Ricciardi, Armando; Zimmer, Michael; Witz, Norbert; Micco, Alberto; Piccirillo, Federica; Giaquinto, Martino; Kaschel, Mathias; Burghartz, Joachim; Jetter, Michael; Michler, Peter; Cusano, Andrea; Portalupi, Simone Luca
Silica fibers are nowadays cornerstones in several technological implementations from long‐distance communication, to sensing applications in many scenarios. To further enlarge the functionalities, the compactness, and the performances of fiber‐based devices, one needs to reliably integrate small‐footprint components such as sensors, light sources, and detectors onto single optical fiber substrates. Here, a novel proof of concept is presented to deterministically integrate optoelectronic chips onto the facet of an optical fiber, further implementing the electrical contacting between the chip and fiber itself. The CMOS‐compatible procedure is based on a suitable combination of metal deposition, laser machining, and micromanipulation, directly applied onto the fiber tip. The proposed method is validated by transferring, aligning, and bonding a quantum‐well based laser on the core of a multimode optical fiber. The successful monolithic device integration on fiber shows simultaneously electrical contacting between the laser and the ferrule, and 20% light in‐coupling in the fiber. These results pave new ways to develop the next generation of optoelectronic systems on fiber. The technological approach will set a new relevant milestone along the lab‐on‐fiber roadmap, opening new avenues for a novel class of integrated optoelectronic fiber platforms, featuring unrivaled miniaturization, compactness, and performances levels, designed for specific applications.

Coherent interaction of atoms with a beam of light confined in a light cage

Controlling coherent interaction between optical fields and quantum systems in scalable, integrated platforms is essential for quantum technologies. Miniaturised, warm alkali-vapour cells integrated with on-chip photonic devices represent an attractive system, in particular for delay or storage of a single-photon quantum state. Hollow-core fibres or planar waveguides are widely used to confine light over long distances enhancing light-matter interaction in atomic-vapour cells. However, they suffer from inefficient filling times, enhanced dephasing for atoms near the surfaces, and limited light-matter overlap. We report here on the observation of modified electromagnetically induced transparency for a non-diffractive beam of light in an on-chip, laterally-accessible hollow-core light cage. Atomic layer deposition of an alumina nanofilm onto the light-cage structure was utilised to precisely tune the high-transmission spectral region of the light-cage mode to the operation wavelength of the atomic transition, while additionally protecting the polymer against the corrosive alkali vapour. The experiments show strong, coherent light-matter coupling over lengths substantially exceeding the Rayleigh range. Additionally, the stable non-degrading performance and extreme versatility of the light cage provide an excellent basis for a manifold of quantum-storage and quantum-nonlinear applications, highlighting it as a compelling candidate for all-on-chip, integrable, low-cost, vapour-based photon delay.

Molecular one‐ and two‐qubit systems with very long coherence times
(2023) Schäfter, Dennis; Wischnat, Jonathan; Tesi, Lorenzo; De Sousa, J. Alejandro; Little, Edmund; McGuire, Jake; Mas‐Torrent, Marta; Rovira, Concepció; Veciana, Jaume; Tuna, Floriana; Crivillers, Núria; Slageren, Joris van
General-purpose quantum computation and quantum simulation require multi-qubit architectures with precisely defined, robust interqubit interactions, coupled with local addressability. This is an unsolved challenge, primarily due to scalability issues. These issues often derive from poor control over interqubit interactions. Molecular systems are promising materials for the realization of large-scale quantum architectures, due to their high degree of positionability and the possibility to precisely tailor interqubit interactions. The simplest quantum architecture is the two-qubit system, with which quantum gate operations can be implemented. To be viable, a two-qubit system must possess long coherence times, the interqubit interaction must be well defined and the two qubits must also be addressable individually within the same quantum manipulation sequence. Here results are presented on the investigation of the spin dynamics of chlorinated triphenylmethyl organic radicals, in particular the perchlorotriphenylmethyl (PTM) radical, a mono-functionalized PTM, and a biradical PTM dimer. Extraordinarily long ensemble coherence times up to 148 µs are found at all temperatures below 100 K. Two-qubit and, importantly, individual qubit addressability in the biradical system are demonstrated. These results underline the potential of molecular materials for the development of quantum architectures.
