Abstract: A new approach for the realization of a quantum interface between single photons and single ions in an ion crystal is proposed and analyzed. In our approach the coupling between a single ph...
Abstract: Quantum theory is often presented as the theory describing the microscopic world, and admittedly, it has done this extremely well for decades. Nonetheless, the question of whether it applie...
Abstract: We propose a method of forming quantum-size emitters within a pre-defined photonic crystal in a self-aligned fashion through controlled removal of quantum well layers via selective wet-chem...
Abstract: A fundamental feature of the quantum world that we live in is that (non-orthogonal) quantum states cannot be cloned. This no cloning theorem lies at the heart of quantum mechanics and is a ...
Abstract: The experience in Quantum Information has led the community to look at foundations of Quantum Theory under a completely new angle, regarding the theory as a “theory of information”, and l...
Abstract: Quantum cryptography allows two people to communicate in absolute secrecy using unbreakable codes. In this talk I introduce the basics of the continuous-variable version of quantum cryptogr...
