On the Photonic Implementation of Universal Quantum Gates, Bell States Preparation Circuit, Quantum Relay and Quantum LDPC Encoders and Decoders

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2010
We show that any family of universal quantum gates can be implemented based on a single optical hybrid/Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI)/directional coupler (DC) and either a highly nonlinear optical fiber or a tap coupler with an avalanche photodiode ...

Inverse-designed diamond photonics [PDF]

, 2019
Diamond hosts optically active color centers with great promise in quantum computation, networking, and sensing. Realization of such applications is contingent upon the integration of color centers into photonic circuits. However, current diamond quantum

Strain-optic active control for quantum integrated photonics

Optics Express, 2014
We present a practical method for active phase control on a photonic chip that has immediate applications in quantum photonics. Our approach uses strain-optic modification of the refractive index of individual waveguides, effected by a millimeter-scale mechanical actuator.

MOFs and COFs in Electronics: Bridging the Gap between Intrinsic Properties and Measured Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold promise for advanced electronics. However, discrepancies in reported electrical conductivities highlight the importance of measurement methodologies. This review explores intrinsic charge transport mechanisms and extrinsic factors influencing performance, and critically ...
