Sub-Doppler forces for 137 Ba ions
Abstract: In this talk I present a theoretical study of calculating sub-Doppler forces for 137 Ba ions. The D1 transition line is employed for cooling line. Two cooling schemes are used: (i) Fg=1 - F...

Quantum Journal Club: Coherent Ultrafast Measurement of Time-Bin Encoded Photons
Abstract: Time-bin encoding is a robust form of optical quantum information, especially for transmission in optical fibers. To readout the information, the separation of the time bins must be larger ...

Informational Approach to Identical Particles in Quantum Theory
Abstract: A remarkable feature of quantum theory is that particles with identical intrinsic properties must be treated as indistinguishable if the theory is to give valid predictions. For example, ou...

Quantum Journal Club: A quantum memory with telecom-wavelength conversion
Abstract: In a fibre-based quantum information network, telecom-wavelength transmission between quantum memory elements is required to minimize absorption. Owing to the paucity of suitable ground-sta...
