ABAA! – Alternating-Bias Assisted Annealing of Amorphous Oxide Tunnel Junctions
Rigetti’s novel technique, Alternating-Bias Assisted Annealing (ABAA), allows for more precise qubit frequency targeting, enabling improved execution of 2-qubit gates and a reduction in defects, which both contribute to higher fidelity.
A high-resolution large-area detector for quality assurance in radiotherapy
This paper discusses the design, fabrication and performance tests of a detector based on Gas Electron Multipliers (GEM) coupled to a matrix of thin-film transistors (TFT).
Loss-induced quantum nonreciprocity
Here, we take a counterintuitive stance by engineering loss to generate a vital form of nonreciprocal quantum correlations, termed nonreciprocal photon blockade. we shown that a robust nonreciprocal single- and two-photon blockade can be achieve in a dissipative three-cavity system.
A Fiber for Electrons: The First Waveguide for Charged Particles in Vacuum
Electrons are key to modern technology, but guiding them over long distances remains challenging. We present the first vacuum-based electron waveguide utilizing Lagrange points, allowing efficient, extended electron transport. This innovation can revolutionize particle physics and quantum computing.
