Abstract: Spin–orbit (SO) coupling—the interaction between a quantum particle’s spin and its momentum—is ubiquitous in physical systems. In condensed matter systems, SO coupling is crucial for th...
Abstract: Positive semidefinite (PSD) rank is a concept that was proposed recently to study the computational power of semidefinite programming, a problem in optimization theory. It turns out that it...
Abstract: Long-distance quantum communication requires photons and quantum nodes that comprise qubits for interaction with light and good memory capabilities, as well as processing qubits for the sto...
Abstract: Secure random numbers are a fundamental element of many applications in science, statistics, cryptography and more in general in security protocols. We present a method that enables the gen...
Abstract: Among solid-state approaches to quantum computing devices, spin-based silicon quantum bits (qubits) are gaining increasing attention, especially after the recent achievement of long spin co...
Abstract: We report the experimental realization of a hybrid quantum circuit combining a superconducting qubit and an ensemble of electronic spins. The qubit, of the transmon type, is coherently coup...
