Barnett Effect-Induced Nonreciprocal Entanglement and Gaussian interferometric power in Magnomechanics with Optical Parametric Amplifier

Nonreciprocity is a powerful tool in quantum technologies. It allows signals to be sent in one direction but not the other. In this article, we propose a method for achieving non-reciprocal entanglement and Gaussian interferometric power (GIP) via the Barnett effect. The YIG is coupled to a microwave cavity that interacts with an optical parametric amplifier (OPA). Due to the Barnett effect, giant nonreciprocal entanglement can emerge. By fine-tuning the cavity detuning, the GIP can exhibits nonreciprocal behavior. All entanglements with ideal nonreciprocity can be achieved by tuning the photon frequency detuning, appropriately choosing the cavity-magnon coupling regime, the nonlinear gain, and the phase shift of the OPA. Interestingly, the amount of entanglement nonreciprocity and its resilience to thermal occupation are remarkably enhanced by increasing the gain of the OPA. This nonreciprocity can be significantly enhanced even at relatively high temperatures. Our research offers a pathway for the realization of nonreciprocal single-phonon devices, with potential applications in quantum information processing and quantum communication. This proposed scheme could pave the way for the development of novel nonreciprocal devices that remain robust under thermal fluctuations.

Environmental-induced work extraction

A local measurement extracts work as a backaction, e.g., in a system of two entangled cavities: first cavity, $a$, comprises a piston and the measurement is carried out on the second cavity, $b$. When no one makes a measurement on the cavity $b$, i.e., it is simply placed in vacuum; environmental monitoring results in the coherent states as the einselected pointer states (the measurement basis) [PRL 70, 1187 (1993)]. This makes the measurement, that nature itself performs, a Gaussian one with a fixed strength $λ=1$. We show that this makes nature assign a \textit{fixed} amount of work to a particular entanglement degree $0\leq ξ(r) \leq 1$, i.e., $W=ξ(r)\times(\bar{n}\hbarω_a)$, nothing that the term in parenthesis is the entire thermal energy. Afterwards, we show that this phenomenon applies quite generally, i.e, not restricted to a two-cavities system. We also touch on the influence of inherited symmterization entanglement in this context. We can arrive an additional phenomenon by considering that work is simply the process of converting randomly moving microscopic ingredients~(vanishing mean-velocity) into a directional one, i.e, with a nonzero mean-velocity. We show that such a change in the character of the motion introduces curvature in spacetime according to general relativity. This phenomenon is the first demonstration of a quantitative relation between entanglement and curvature using solely the quantum optics arguments.

Electrically-programmable frequency comb for compact quantum photonic circuits

Recent efforts have demonstrated the first prototypes for compact and programmable photonic quantum computers (PQCs). Utilization of time-bin encoding in loop-like architectures enabled programmable generation of quantum states and execution of different (programmable) logic gates on a single circuit. Actually, there is still space for better compactness and complexity of available quantum states and gate operations: a photonic circuit (PC) can operate at multiple frequencies. Here, we propose an electrically-programmable frequency comb that generates continuously tunable entanglement among different frequencies. The device is not directly integrated into fragile quantum processing components but is to be used as a fast (picoseconds) tunable auxiliary source provided into state-of-the-art measurement-induced loop-based photonic quantum computers employing programmable (50 MHz) beam-splitters (BSs) and phase-shifters. Multimode entanglement generation is controlled via Fano resonance in the nonlinear response. The generated entanglement can be tuned continuously via an applied voltage which can be delivered to the device via nm-thick wires. The proposed device is integrable, CMOS-compatible, and operates below ps but is limited with transistor clock speeds 5-100 GHz.

Environmental-induced work extraction

A measurement can extract work from an entangled, e.g., two-mode system. Here, we inquire the extracted work when no intellectual creature, like an ancilla/daemon, is present. When the monitoring is carried out by the environmental modes, that is when no measurement-apparatus is present, the measurement-basis becomes the coherent state. This implies a Gaussian measurement with a fixed strength $λ=1$. For two-mode Gaussian states, extracted work is already independent from the measurement outcome. After the strength is also fixed, this makes nature assign a particular amount of work to a given entanglement degree. Extracted work becomes the entanglement-degree times the entire thermal energy at low temperatures -- e.g., room temperature for optical modes. Environment, nature itself, converts entanglement to an ordered, macroscopic, directional~(kinetic) energy from a disordered, microscopic, randomized thermal energy. And the converted amount is solely determined by the entanglement.

Knowledge Diffusion Process & Common Islamic Banking Governance Principles: Integrative Perspective (s) of Managers and Shariah Scholars

Islamic banks being commercial entities strive to earn profit within shariah ambit. Therefore, they seem to be basing themselves upon two knowledge streams namely i) Islamic jurisprudence principles, and ii) banking principles. Islamic jurisprudence principles primarily aim at bringing shariah compliance while banking principles focus profitability. These principles, making two schools of thought in the discipline, however, have their unique philosophies, principles, and practices, which are now gradually diffusing into an emergent set of governance principles basing the contemporary Islamic banking theory and practice. Governance systems of Islamic banks have elements of both conventional as well as Shariah, and need to have principles having components of banking and shariah sufficiently diffused for their successful operations in a longer term. Aim of this research is to review the literature about the knowledge diffusion process of islamic banking principles which guides the governance of Islamic banks. This study review the literature using a method in which focus remain on bridging different areas which in this case are knowledge diffusion and islamic banking governance principles.
