Title A single nitrogen-vacancy defect coupled to a nanomechanical oscillator Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 11 Pages 879-883
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract We position a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre hosted in a diamond nanocrystal at the extremity of a SiC nanowire. This novel hybrid system couples the degrees of freedom of two radically different systems: a nanomechanical oscillator and a single quantum object. We probe the dynamics of the nano-resonator through time-resolved nanocrystal fluorescence and photon-correlation measurements, conveying the influence of a mechanical degree of freedom on a non-classical photon emitter. Moreover, by immersing the system in a strong magnetic field gradient, we induce a magnetic coupling between the nanomechanical oscillator and the NV electronic spin, providing nanomotion readout through a single electronic spin. Spin-dependent forces inherent to this coupling scheme are essential in a variety of active cooling and entanglement protocols used in atomic physics, and should now be within the reach of nanomechanical hybrid systems.

Title Quantum physics: Environmental effects controlled Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue Pages 927–928
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract 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 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 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 Quantum technology: Wave packets get a kick Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume 7 Issue 5 Pages 373-374
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract Intense femtosecond pulses of infrared light can manipulate molecules. It is now shown that such control even extends to making different molecular eigenstates interfere with each other in a way never considered before -- a potential tool for optically engineered chemical reactions and for ultrafast information encoding and manipulation.
