Control Protocol for Dynamic Synthesis of Qubit and Qudit Gates Using Photonic Pulses and Magnetic Fields

We propose a theoretical control protocol designed for the dynamic synthesis of single qubit and four-level qudit quantum gates using external parameters, such as photonic Gaussian pulses and magnetic fields, in a microcavity quantum well system. Our approach takes advantage of tunable coherent light matter interactions that can be modulated by the magnetic field between the exciton and negative trion coupled to the lowest photonic mode. We demonstrate that it is possible to achieve precise manipulation of populations of encoded quantum states through the unitary evolution of the system. In particular, we illustrate our optimization method for generating a single qubit gate with a mean fidelity of 99.99 as well as the realization of an iSWAP gate in the four level qudit case with a fidelity of 99.6.

Dynamics of a quantum polariton vortex: Low excitation scenario

Quantum vorticity in polariton systems has been traditionally investigated within the frame of many-body phenomena under the mean-field or coherent approaches. In the present work, we show that the fully quantized picture describes richer dynamics for the vortex core at the quantum coupling limit, where two systems exchange an indivisible excitation. The quantum correlations intrinsic to our formalism account for the emergence of a family of trajectories that differ from the circular paths known in macroscopic vorticity phenomena. These results indicate that there exists a criterion to differentiate the behavior at the edge between the quantum and classical polariton vortex dynamics.

Uncover quantumness in the crossover from BEC to quantum-correlated phase

Collective phenomena in the Tavis-Cummings model has been widely studied, focusing on the phase transition features. In many occasions, it has been used variational approaches that consider separated radiation-matters systems. In this paper, we examine the role of the quantum entanglement of an assembly of two-level emitters coupled to a single-mode cavity; this allows us to characterise the quantum correlated state for each regime. Statistical properties of the system, e.g., the first four statistical moments, show clearly the structure of the light and matter distributions. Even though the second order correlation function goes to one in some regimes, the statistical analysis evidence a sharp departure from coherent behaviour, contrarily to the common understanding.

Nonstationary force sensing under dissipative mechanical quantum squeezing

We study the stationary and nonstationary measurement of a classical force driving a mechanical oscillator coupled to an electromagnetic cavity under two-tone driving. For this purpose, we develop a theoretical framework based on the signal-to-noise ratio to quantify the sensitivity of linear spectral measurements. Then, we consider stationary force sensing and study the necessary conditions to minimise the added force noise. We find that imprecision noise and back-action noise can be arbitrarily suppressed by manipulating the amplitudes of the input coherent fields, however, the force noise power spectral density cannot be reduced below the level of thermal fluctuations. Therefore, we consider a nonstationary protocol that involves non-thermal dissipative state preparation followed by a finite time measurement, which allows one to perform measurements with a signal-to-noise much greater than the maximum possible in a stationary measurement scenario. We analyse two different measurement schemes in the nonstationary transient regime, a back-action evading measurement, which implies modifying the drive asymmetry configuration upon arrival of the force, and a nonstationary measurement that leaves the drive asymmetry configuration unchanged. Conditions for optimal force noise sensitivity are determined, and the corresponding force noise power spectral densities are calculated.

Generation of matter threefold star state by dynamical transfer from photonic counterpart

In this paper, the dynamics of a system composed by an assembly of two-level atoms coupled to a single-mode cavity is theoretically studied considering the Tavis-Cummings Hamiltonian. Motivated by recent experimental results in non-linear phenomena on squeezed-like states, we have found that a threefold star state for the whole set of emitters can be dynamically generated from the analogue photonic state; beyond this, we numerically demonstrate, that this transfer of star-like states critically depends with the number of emitters. Quantum statistical properties of the system are obtained by computing the second-order correlation function, the linear entropy and the Wigner function for the reduced density matrices between radiation and collective matter components.

Effective quasiparticle approach for a Cavity-QDots System

In this work, we present a quasiparticle strategy to study the Hamiltonian description of the stationary states for two quantum dots--cavity system. We consider three different effective schemes of quasiparticles that give an in-depth insight into the physics involved in the Hamiltonian eigenstates for parameters that optimize or minimize the energy gap condition. We analyze features of quantum measures like fractional composition, linear entropy, and concurrence to observe which one description gives the complete physical information. Our findings show that a polaritonic---light-matter quasiparticle---approach catch better the physics contained in the whole regimes considered.

Multiple-scale analysis of open quantum systems

In this work, we present a multiple-scale perturbation technique suitable for the study of open quantum systems, which is easy to implement and in few iterative steps allows us to find excellent approximate solutions. For any time-local quantum master equation, whether markovian or non-markovian, in Lindblad form or not, we give a general procedure to construct analytical approximations to the corresponding dynamical map and, consequently, to the temporal evolution of the density matrix. As a simple illustrative example of the implementation of the method, we study an atom-cavity system described by a dissipative Jaynes-Cummings model. Performing a multiple-scale analysis we obtain approximate analytical expressions for the strong and weak coupling regimes that allow us to identify characteristic time scales in the state of the physical system.

Quantum correlations between two distant cavity QED systems coupled by a mechanical resonator

Achieving quantum correlations between two distant systems is a desirable feature for quantum networking. In this work, we study a system composed of two quantum emitter-cavity subsystems spatially separated. A mechanical resonator couples to either both quantum emitters or both cavities leading to quantum correlations between both subsystems such as non-local light-matter dressed states and cavity-cavity normal mode splitting. These indirect couplings can be explained by an effective Hamiltonian for large energy detuning between the mechanical resonator and the atoms/cavities. Moreover, it is found optimal conditions for the physical parameters of the system in order to maximize the entanglement of such phonon-mediated couplings.

Coexistence of weak and strong coupling with a quantum dot in a photonic molecule

We study the emission from a molecular photonic cavity formed by two proximal photonic crystal defect cavities containing a small number (<3) of In(Ga)As quantum dots. Under strong excitation we observe photoluminescence from the bonding and antibonding modes in excellent agreement with expectations from numerical simulations. Power dependent measurements reveal an unexpected peak, emerging at an energy between the bonding and antibonding modes of the molecule. Temperature dependent measurements show that this unexpected feature is photonic in origin. Time-resolved measurements show the emergent peak exhibits a lifetime $τ_M=0.75 \, \pm 0.1 \, ns $, similar to both bonding and antibonding coupled modes. Comparison of experimental results with theoretical expectations reveal that this new feature arises from a coexistence of weak- and strong-coupling, due to the molecule emitting in an environment whose configuration permits or, on the contrary, impedes its strong-coupling. This scenario is reproduced theoretically for our particular geometry with a master equation reduced to the key ingredients of its dynamics. Excellent qualitative agreement is obtained between experiment and theory, showing how solid-state cavity QED can reveal new regimes of light-matter interaction.

Indirect strong coupling regime between a quantum dot and a nanocavity mediated by a mechanical resonator

Achieving strong coupling between light and matter is usually a challenge in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (cQED), especially in solid state systems. For this reason is useful taking advantage of alternative approaches to reach this regime, and then, generate reliable quantum polaritons. In this work we study a system composed of a quantized single mode of a mechanical resonator interacting linearly with both a single mode nanocavity and a two-level single quantum dot. In particular, we focus on the behavior of the indirect light-matter interaction when the phonon mode interfaces both parts. By diagonalization of the Hamiltonian and computing the density matrix in a master equation approach, we evidence several features of strong coupling between photons in optical cavities and excitons in a quantum dot. For large energy detuning between the cavity and the mechanical resonator it is obtained a phonon-dispersive effective Hamiltonian which is able to retrieve much of the physics of the conventional Jaynes-Cummings model (JCM). In order to characterize this mediated coupling, we make a quantitative comparison between both models and analyze light-matter entanglement and purity of the system leading to similar results in cQED.

Magnetic control of dipolaritons in quantum dots

Dipolaritons are quasiparticles that arise in coupled quantum wells embedded in a microcavity, they are a superposition of a photon, a direct exciton and an indirect exciton. We propose the existence of dipolaritons in a system of two coupled quantum dots inside a microcavity in direct analogy with the quantum well case and find that, despite some similarities, dipolaritons in quantum dots have different properties and can lead to true dark polariton states. We use a finite system theory to study the effects of the magnetic field on the system, including the emission, and find that it can be used as a control parameter of the properties of excitons and dipolaritons, and the overall magnetic behaviour of the structure.

Can the exciton--polariton regime be defined by its quantum properties?

Using a simple fully quantum model in an effective exciton scheme that takes into account the system--environment interaction, we study the different regimes arising in a microcavity--quantum dot system. Our numerical calculations of the emission linewidth, emission energy, integrated intensity and second- and third-order correlation functions are in good qualitative agreement with reported experimental results. We show that the transition from the polariton-laser to the photon-laser regime can be defined through the critical points of both the negativity and the linear entropy of the steady state.
