Tensor network simulations of open quantum systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The nonequilibrium effects of dissipation and drive play a key role in an immense variety of nanoscale and mesoscale quantum systems. To understand the behaviour of open quantum systems, we need accurate methods that capture the influence of the ...

Recent highlights in nanoscale and mesoscale friction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Friction is the oldest branch of non-equilibrium condensed matter physics and, at the same time, the least established at the fundamental level. A full understanding and control of friction is increasingly recognized to involve all relevant size and time

Effective nonlinear interactions in circuit QED and optomechanical setups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this thesis, we study two different physical systems, namely superconducting circuits and optomechanical cavities. In the first part of the thesis, we study superconducting qubits and resonators and their potential to implement quantum information ...

High-pressure lubricity at the meso- and nanoscale

open access: yes, 2013
The increase of sliding friction upon increasing load is a classic in the macroscopic world. Here we discuss the possibility that friction rise might sometimes turn into a drop when, at the mesoscale and nanoscale, a confined lubricant film separating ...
