Circuit-Level Loss Performance of FFCC and RHG Codes in a Compound Photon-Atom Quantum Architecture

We compare the Raussendorf-Harrington-Goyal (RHG) code, the Foliated Floquet Color Code (FFCC), and the reduced FFCC in a compound photon-atom architecture that directly generates measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) resources with near-deterministic photon-atom CZ gates. RHG serves as a natural benchmark, while the FFCC variants allow us to study whether reduced graph degree improves performance under an architecture-aware circuit-level loss model with delayed heralding and correlated bond-loss propagation. We construct two generation schemes compatible with the compound hardware and evaluate circuit-level thresholds under periodic boundary conditions. RHG achieves the highest circuit-level threshold, 2.75%, and its threshold falls below that of reduced FFCC only for large excess loss on intermodule CZ connections. RHG also achieves the lowest logical error rate in most resource-matched comparisons, but some low-loss windows favor reduced FFCC. Overall, we show that when the hardware supports the native gates and connectivity required for MBQC, the benefits of lower graph degree must be weighed against each code's intrinsic IID loss tolerance, generation-scheme details, and hardware-aware resource overhead.

Blueprint for a fault-tolerant compound photon-atom quantum architecture

Fault-tolerant quantum computing requires architectures that simultaneously address scalability, connectivity, and error correction under realistic noise constraints. We present a compound photonic-atomic quantum computing platform that uses cavity QED to realize near-deterministic entangling operations between flying photonic qubits and stationary atomic qubits. Photons provide long-range connectivity and scalability via measurement-based quantum computing (MBQC), while atoms supply reusable, near-deterministic resources for photon generation and entanglement, overcoming the inefficiency of purely photonic platforms. The core primitive is a symmetrized Duan-Kimble photon-atom controlled-phase (CZ) gate, robust to experimental imperfections and high-fidelity. Using single $^{87}$Rb atoms coupled to optical cavities, we give protocols for state preparation, measurement, photon generation, and entangling gates on tens-of-nanosecond timescales, and show how large-scale cluster states with effectively unrestricted connectivity and reduced overhead can be generated through atomic reuse. We analyze fault tolerance on the Raussendorf-Harrington-Goyal (RHG) lattice with a hardware-aware noise model capturing asymmetric loss and correlated photonic-atomic errors. Logical memory simulations yield a photon-loss threshold near $2.6\%$ per physical gate ($\sim$15\% total per trajectory). The full Clifford set -- Hadamard, phase, CNOT -- is implementable transversally or fold-transversally at thresholds matching the identity channel, and we propose two non-Clifford resource-state routes (code teleportation and magic state cultivation) within the foliated cluster-state architecture.

Emergence of a Fermi-surface in the current-driven Hidden state of 1T-TaS$_2$

The origin of the insulating state in 1T-TaS$_2$ has long been a subject of debate. A short current pulse transforms this insulating state into a metastable metallic phase. Using micro-ARPES, we investigate the electronic structure of this phase and uncover spatially dependent modifications caused by the current pulse. In some regions of the sample, a Fermi surface emerges, while others remain gapped. Detailed band structure analysis reveals that the metallic regions exhibit an electronic structure similar to that observed in the high-temperature phase of 1T-TaS$_2$, characterized by suppressed energy gaps and bands crossing the Fermi level. Furthermore, the metallic and insulating regions display distinct dispersions along the out-of-plane direction. These observations suggest a scenario in which the current pulse breaks the star-of-David dimers characteristic of the insulating phase, implicating these dimers as the likely origin of the insulating behavior in 1T-TaS$_2$.

Carrier Density and Thickness Dependent Proximity Effect in Doped Topological Insulator -- Metallic Ferromagnet Bilayers

We use magneto-conductivity to study the magnetic proximity effect on surface states of doped topological insulators. Our bilayers consist of a layer of Fe$_7$Se$_8$, which is a metallic ferrimagnet and a layer of Bi$_{0.8}$Sb$_{1.2}$Te$_{3}$ which is a highly hole-doped topological insulator. Using transport measurements and a modified Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka model, we show that the ferromagnet shortens significantly the effective coherence length of the surface states, suggesting that a gap is opened at the Dirac point. We show that the magnetically induced gap persists on surface states which are separated from the magnet by a topological insulator layer as thick as 170 [nm]. Furthermore, the size of the gap is found to be proportional to the magnetization that we extract from the anomalous Hall effect. Our results give information on the ties between carrier density, induced magnetization and magnetically induced gap in topological insulator/ferromagnet bilayers. This information is important both for a theoretical understanding of magnetic interactions in topological insulators and for the practical fabrication of such bilayers, which are the basis of various suggested technologies, such as spintronic devices, far infra-red detectors etc.
