Title A quantum memory intrinsic to single nitrogen–vacancy centres in diamond Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 10 Pages 789-793
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) A quantum memory, composed of a long-lived qubit coupled to each processing qubit, is important to building a scalable platform for quantum information science. These two qubits should be connected by a fast and high-fidelity operation to store and retrieve coherent quantum states. Here, we demonstrate a room-temperature quantum memory based on the spin of the nitrogen nucleus intrinsic to each nitrogen–vacancy (NV) centre in diamond. We perform coherent storage of a single NV centre electronic spin in a single nitrogen nuclear spin using Landau–Zener transitions across a hyperfine-mediated avoided level crossing. By working outside the asymptotic regime, we demonstrate coherent state transfer in as little as 120 ns with total storage fidelity of 88±6%. This work demonstrates the use of a quantum memory that is compatible with scaling as the nitrogen nucleus is deterministically present in each NV centre defect.

Title Superconducting devices: Quantum cups and balls Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 8 Pages 594-595
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) A single microwave photon in a superposition of two states of different frequency is now demonstrated using a superconducting quantum interference device to mediate the coupling between two harmonics of a resonator. Such quantum circuits bring closer the possibility of controlling photon-photon interactions at the single-photon level.

Title Nonlinear dynamics: Quantum pendula locked in Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 2 Pages 100-101
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) A study of the autoresonant behaviour of a superconducting pendulum reveals that quantum fluctuations determine only the initial oscillator motion and not its subsequent dynamics. This could be important in the development of more efficient methods for reading solid-state qubits.

Title High-fidelity quantum driving Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 8 Issue 2 Pages 147-152
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) Accurately controlling a quantum system is a fundamental requirement in quantum information processing and the coherent manipulation of molecular systems. The ultimate goal in quantum control is to prepare a desired state with the highest fidelity allowed by the available resources and the experimental constraints. Here we experimentally implement two optimal high-fidelity control protocols using a two-level quantum system comprising Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices. The first is a short-cut protocol that reaches the maximum quantum-transformation speed compatible with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. In the opposite limit, we realize the recently proposed transitionless superadiabatic protocols in which the system follows the instantaneous adiabatic ground state nearly perfectly. We demonstrate that superadiabatic protocols are extremely robust against control parameter variations, making them useful for practical applications.

Title Wide-band quantum interface for visible-totelecommunication wavelength conversion Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Communications Abbreviated Journal Nat. Comm.
Volume 2 Issue Pages 5
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) Although near-infrared photons in telecommunication bands are required for long-distance quantum communication, various quantum information tasks have been performed by using visible photons for the past two decades. Recently, such visible photons from diverse media including atomic quantum memories have also been studied. Optical frequency down-conversion from visible to telecommunication bands while keeping the quantum states is thus required for bridging such wavelength gaps. Here we report demonstration of a quantum interface of frequency down-conversion from visible to telecommunication bands by using a nonlinear crystal, which has a potential to work over wide bandwidths, leading to a high-speed interface of frequency conversion. We achieved the conversion of a picosecond visible photon at 780 nm to a 1,522-nm photon, and observed that the conversion process retained entanglement between the down-converted photon and another photon.

Title Quantum physics: Environmental effects controlled Type Journal Article

Volume 7 Issue Pages 927–928
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) An open quantum system loses its 'quantumness' when information about the state leaks into its surroundings. Researchers now show how this decoherence can be controlled between two incompatible regimes in the case of a single photon.

Title Antibunching of microwave-frequency photons observed in correlation measurements using linear detectors Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 2 Pages 154-158
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract (up) At optical frequencies the radiation produced by a source, such as a laser, a black body or a single-photon emitter, is frequently characterized by analysing the temporal correlations of emitted photons using single-photon counters. At microwave frequencies, however, there are no efficient single-photon counters yet. Instead, well-developed linear amplifiers allow for efficient measurement of the amplitude of an electromagnetic field. Here, we demonstrate first- and second-order correlation function measurements of a pulsed microwave-frequency single-photon source integrated on the same chip with a 50/50 beam splitter followed by linear amplifiers and quadrature amplitude detectors. We clearly observe single-photon coherence in first-order and photon antibunching in second-order correlation function measurements of the propagating fields.
