Reversing the Weak Quantum Measurement for a Photonic Qubit

open access: yes, 2009
We demonstrate the conditional reversal of a weak (partial-collapse) quantum measurement on a photonic qubit. The weak quantum measurement causes a nonunitary transformation of a qubit which is subsequently reversed to the original state after a ...

Tomography of a Spatially Resolved Single-Atom Detector in the Presence of Shot-to-Shot Number Fluctuations

open access: yesPRX Quantum
The tomography of single-particle-resolved detectors is of primary importance for characterizing particle correlations, with applications in quantum metrology, quantum simulation, and quantum computing. However, it is a nontrivial task in practice due to

Loss-tolerant measurement-device-independent quantum random number generation

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Quantum random number generators (QRNGs) output genuine random numbers based upon the uncertainty principle. A QRNG contains two parts in general—a randomness source and a readout detector.

Pauli Tomography: complete characterization of a single qubit device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The marriage of Quantum Physics and Information Technology, originally motivated by the need for miniaturization, has recently opened the way to the realization of radically new information-processing devices, with the possibility of guaranteed secure ...

Tomography of photon-number resolving continuous-output detectors

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We report a comprehensive approach to analysing continuous-output photon detectors. We employ principal component analysis to maximize the information extracted from output signals, followed by a novel noise-tolerant parameterized approach to the ...

Universal framework for simultaneous tomography of quantum states and SPAM noise [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum
We present a general denoising algorithm for performing $\textit{simultaneous tomography}$ of quantum states and measurement noise. This algorithm allows us to fully characterize state preparation and measurement (SPAM) errors present in any quantum ...

Gradient-descent methods for scalable quantum detector tomography

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
We present a technique for performing quantum detector tomography of phase insensitive quantum detectors, a category under which many detectors of interest fall under, using gradient descent-based optimization to learn the positive operator-valued ...

Projecting onto any two-photon polarization state using linear optics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
Projectors are a simple but powerful tool for manipulating and probing quantum systems. For instance, projecting two-qubit systems onto maximally entangled states can enable quantum teleportation.

Iterative maximum-likelihood reconstruction in quantum homodyne tomography

open access: yes, 2003
I propose an iterative expectation maximization algorithm for reconstructing a quantum optical ensemble from a set of balanced homodyne measurements performed on an optical state.

Quantum iterative reconstruction on a photon-counting detector CT improves the quality of hepatocellular carcinoma imaging

open access: yesCancer Imaging, 2023
Background Excellent image quality is crucial for workup of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with liver cirrhosis because a signature tumor signal allows for non-invasive diagnosis without histologic proof.
