Verifying the security of a continuous variable quantum communication protocol via quantum metrology

npj Quantum Information
Quantum mechanics offers the possibility of unconditionally secure communication between multiple remote parties. Security proofs for such protocols typically rely on bounding the capacity of the quantum channel in use.

FastNano Liquid: An Automated Platform for Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering‐Based Materials Discovery

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present FastNano Liquid, an automated small‐ and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering platform for the combined synthesis and characterization of (nano)materials. The platform is coupled to varied reactor workflows for both in situ studies of reaction kinetics and ex situ screening of synthesis conditions to support machine learning‐guided exploration ...

Surpassing the no-cloning limit with a heralded hybrid linear amplifier for coherent states

Nature Communications, 2016
Cloning an unknown quantum state is challenging and the limit on the quality of clones is set by the no-cloning theorem. Here, the authors demonstrated the surpassing of such a limit using an effective quantum cloner based on a hybrid probabilistic ...

Spontaneous parametric down conversion without poling for silicon carbide and lithium niobate photonics

Scientific Reports
State-of-the-art photon sources based on spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) currently rely on artificial structuring of the material nonlinearity to satisfy phase-matching conditions. This technique, known as periodic poling, is available only

Quantum Communications Based on Quantum Hashing

CoRR, 2013
In this paper we consider an application of the recently proposed quantum hashing technique for computing Boolean functions in the quantum communication model. The combination of binary functions on non-binary quantum hash function is done via polynomial presentation, which we have called a characteristic of a Boolean function.
