Coherent transfer via parametric control of normal-mode splitting in a superconducting multimode resonator

Microwave storage and retrieval are essential capabilities for superconducting quantum circuits. Here, we demonstrate an on-chip multimode resonator in which strong parametric modulation induces a large and tunable normal-mode splitting that enables microwave storage. When the spectral bandwidth of a short microwave pulse covers the two dressed-state absorption peaks, part of the pulse is absorbed and undergoes coherent energy exchange between the modes, producing a clear time-domain beating signal. By switching off the modulation before the beating arrives, we realize on-demand storage and retrieval, demonstrating an alternative approach to microwave photonic quantum memory. This parametric-normal-mode-splitting protocol offers a practical route toward a controllable quantum-memory mechanism in superconducting circuits.

Direct calibration of microwave amplification chain on an axion cavity haloscope

In an axion haloscope, the weak photon signal, theoretically converted from axions, is captured by a detection cavity. The signal from the cavity is too weak to be acquired by a signal receiver. The amplification chain assists the signal acquisition by amplifying the signal and requires accurate gain calibration. Typically, the readout line is calibrated using the Y-factor method, involving a switch that directs either the detection line or the calibration line to the amplification chain. The detection and calibration lines may have different transmissions, which leads to the calibration results being less accurate. In response, we propose a calibration method that eliminates the need for a switch. In this approach, the cavity temperature is decoupled to its incoming noise source and can be controlled, resulting in excess or deficiency of the noise spectrum near its resonance frequency. The experimental result shows that the gain of the amplification chain can be calibrated directly using the temperature-varied cavity radiation.

First Results from the Taiwan Axion Search Experiment with Haloscope at 19.6 $\mu$eV

This Letter reports on the first results from the Taiwan Axion Search Experiment with Haloscope, a search for axions using a microwave cavity at frequencies between 4.70750 and 4.79815 GHz. Apart from the non-axion signals, no candidates with a significance more than 3.355 were found. The experiment excludes models with the axion-two-photon coupling $\left|g_{a\gamma\gamma}\right|\gtrsim 8.2\times 10^{-14}$ GeV$^{-1}$, a factor of eleven above the benchmark KSVZ model, reaching a sensitivity three orders of magnitude better than any existing limits in the mass range 19.4687 < $m_a$ < 19.8436 $\mu$eV. It is also the first time that a haloscope-type experiment places constraints on $g_{a\gamma\gamma}$ in this mass region.

Taiwan Axion Search Experiment with Haloscope: Designs and operations

We report on a holoscope axion search experiment near $19.6\ {\rm \mu eV}$ from the TASEH collaboration. The experiment is carried out via a frequency-tunable cavity detector with a volume $V = 0.234\ {\rm liter}$ in a magnetic field $B_0 = 8\ {\rm T}$. With a signal receiver that has a system noise temperature $T_{\rm sys} \cong 2.2\ {\rm K}$ and experiment time about 1 month, the search excludes values of the axion-photon coupling constant $g_{\rm a\gamma\gamma} \gtrsim 8.1 \times 10^{-14} \ {\rm GeV}^{-1}$, a factor of 11 above the KSVZ model, at the 95\% confidence level in the mass range of $19.4687-19.8436\ {\rm \mu eV}$. We present the experimental setup and procedures to accomplish this search.

Taiwan Axion Search Experiment with Haloscope: CD102 Analysis Details

This paper presents the analysis of the data acquired during the first physics run of the Taiwan Axion Search Experiment with Haloscope (TASEH), a search for axions using a microwave cavity at frequencies between 4.70750 and 4.79815 GHz. The data were collected from October 13, 2021 to November 15, 2021, and are referred to as the CD102 data. The analysis of the TASEH CD102 data excludes models with the axion-two-photon coupling $|g_{a\gamma\gamma}| \gtrsim 8.2\times 10^{-14}$ GeV$^{-1}$, a factor of eleven above the benchmark KSVZ model for the mass range 19.4687 < ma < 19.8436 $\mu$eV.

Autonomous Brownian gyrators: a study on gyrating characteristics

We study the nonequilibrium steady-state (NESS) dynamics of two-dimensional Brownian gyrators under harmonic and nonharmonic potentials via computer simulations and analyses based on the Fokker-Planck equation, while our nonharmonic cases feature a double-well potential and an isotropic quartic potential. In particular, we report two simple methods that can help understand gyrating patterns. For harmonic potentials, we use the Fokker-Planck equation to survey the NESS dynamical characteristics, i.e., the NESS currents gyrate along the equiprobability contours and the stationary point of flow coincides with the potential minimum. As a contrast, the NESS results in our nonharmonic potentials show that these properties are largely absent, as the gyrating patterns are much distinct from those of corresponding probability distributions. Furthermore, we observe a critical case of the double-well potential, where the harmonic contribution to the gyrating pattern becomes absent, and the NESS currents do not circulate about the equiprobability contours nearby the potential minima even at low temperatures.
