Quantum mechanics uses an abstract description for the behavior of physical systems such as photons, electrons, or atoms. Whether quantum predictions for single systems in an interferometric experiment allow an intuitive under- standing in terms of the particle or wave picture depends on the specific configuration which is being used. In principle, this leaves open the possibility that quantum systems always behave either definitely as a particle or definitely as a wave in every experimental run by a priori adapting to the specific experimental situation. This is precisely what is tried to be excluded by delayed-choice experiments, in which the observer chooses to reveal the particle or wave character of a quantum system—or even a continuous transformation between the two—at a late stage of the experiment.

    ABSTRACT Multi-pulse Nonlinear Optical Spectroscopy and Light-matter Interactions in Layered Materials Brian Alexander Ko, Ph.D. Mentor: Marlan O. Scully, Ph.D. The interaction between light and matter is one that underscores many applications from solar energy conversion to optical sensing of biological materials. The use of multiple pulses to study these interactions are especially useful in understanding the nonlinear optical properties of materials. Transition metal dichalcogenides such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) are attractive materials due to the existence of a direct excitonic resonance that can be used to enhance nonlinear optical phenomena, such as Raman spectroscopy. Here, we have investigated four-wave mixing (FWM) processes in bulk MoS2 using a multiplex coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy setup. The observed FWM signal has a resonance at approximately 680 nm, corresponding to the energy of the A excitonic transition of MoS2. This resonance can be attributed to the increased third-order nonlinear susceptibility near the excitonic transition. This phenomenon shows the potential of MoS2 as a substrate for enhancing FWM processes. Understanding how particles and light interact in a liquid environment is vital for optical and biological applications. The interaction between two femtosecond pulses and MoS2 nanoparticles suspended in liquid is studied. The laser pulses induce bubble formation on the surface of a nanoparticle and a nanoparticle aggregate then forms on the surface of the trapped bubble. Two-dimensional organometallic lead halide perovskites are generating great interest due to their optoelectronic characteristics, such as a direct band gap in the visible regime. However, the presence of defect states within the crystal structure can affect these properties, resulting in changes to their emission and the emergence of nonlinear optical phenomena.

    Geometric phase gate with a quantized driving field Shabnam Siddiquia arid Julio Gea-Banaclochea 'Department of Physics, University of Arkansas, Fayett,eville, Arkansas, 72701, USA ABSTRACT We have studied the performance of a geometric phase gate with a quantized driving field numerically, and developed an analytical approximation that yields some preliminary insight on the way the nl~hltbecomes entangled with the driving field. Keywords: Quantum computation, adiabatic quantum gates, geometric quantum gates 1. INTRODUCTION It was first suggested by Zanardi and ~asetti,'that the Berry phase (non-abelian holon~m~)~-~might in principle provide a novel way for implementing universal quantum computation. They showed that by encoding quantum information in one of the eigenspaces of a degenerate Harniltonian H one can in principle achieve the full quantum computational power by using holonomies only. It was then thought that since Berry's phase is a purely geometrical effect, it is resilient to certain errors and may provide a possibility for performing intrinsically fault-tolerant quantum gate operations. In a paper by Ekert et.al,5 a detailed theory behind the implementation of geometric computation was developed and an implementation of a conditional phase gate in NMR was shown by Jones et.al.6 This attracted the attention of the research community and various studies were performed to study the rob~stness~-'~of geometric gates and the implementation of these gates in other systenls such as ion-trap, solid state and Josephson qubits.lO-l4 In this paper we study an adiabatic geometric phase gate when the control system is treated as a two mode quantized coherent field.

  • Remote Detection Via Quantum Coherence Professor Marlan O
    Paint Branch Distinguished Lecture in Applied Physics The Paint Branch Distinguished Lecture in Applied Physics was established and endowed by a generous gift to IREAP in 2014 with the intention to bring luminaries in the field of Applied Physics to speak to our community. We hope that this lecture will bring together students, faculty, and community members to celebrate research that dissolves the boundaries of classic disciplines. This is the inaugural Lecture. Remote Detection via Quantum Coherence Professor Marlan O. Scully Baylor, Princeton, and Texas A&M Universities Monday, October 19, 2015 4 p.m., Room 1101 Biosciences Research Building Abstract: There is nothing so practical as a good theory. As a case in point, the compelling need for standoff detection of hazardous gases and vapor indicators of explosives has motivated the development of remotely pumped schemes that produce radiation in the backward direction [1,2]. Moving from conceptualization to theoretical analysis and experimental verification, we demonstrate that high gain can be achieved in air. Backward air lasing provides possibilities for remote detection [3], as will be discussed. Bio: Marlan Scully (Baylor, Princeton, and Texas A&M) has worked on a variety of problems in laser physics and quantum optics, including: the first quantum theory of the laser with Lamb, the laser phase transition analogy and its applications to the Bose condensate, experimental demonstrations of lasing without inversion, and ultraslow light in hot gases via quantum coherence. His introduction of entanglement interferometry to quantum optics has shed light on the foundations of quantum mechanics, e.g., the quantum eraser. Recently he and his colleagues have applied quantum coherence to remote sensing of anthrax and probing through turbid mediums, such as skin and plant tissue.

  • Výroční Zpráva FZU Za Rok 2019
    Výroční zpráva o činnosti a hospodaření za rok 2019 FZÚ AV ČR, V. V. I. VÝROČNÍ ZPRÁVA 2019 vodní slovo k výroční zprávě je velmi specifický slohový útvar. Mělo by jít Úo ohlédnutí za minulým rokem, ovšem vzniká typicky až jako jedna z posledních součástí výroční zprávy v květnu roku aktuálního. Ředitel – pisatel je tak vystaven velkému pokušení zohlednit důležité události, které se udály v posledních měsících. Toto pokušení je obzvláště silné v letošním roce, kdy nedávné události v rámci koronavirové krize a nouzového stavu v České republice byly opravdu mimořádné a historicky jedinečné, ale omezím se nyní na konstatování, že Fyzikálnímu ústavu AV ČR (FZU) se v této zkoušce podařilo obstát mimořádně dobře – zejména díky vynikajícímu nasazení všech zaměstnanců v mnoha různých rolích. Rok 2019 byl pro rozvoj FZU rokem jistě příznivým. Všechny relevantní statistické ukazatele rostly: Počet zaměstnanců se zvýšil z 1334 na konci roku 2018 na 1357 na konci roku 2019. Jde o růst jen o 1,7 %, což je ale v souladu s tím, že obě velká laserová centra ELI Beamlines a HiLASE již jsou plně personálně obsazena a ani v jiných vědeckých sekcích nebyl v loňském roce zahájen žádný projekt spojený se zásadnějším přijímáním nových lidí. Provozní rozpočet FZU – plánovaný – stoupl z 1,7 miliardy Kč v roce 2018 na 1,9 miliardy Kč v roce 2019. To svědčí o tom, že FZU se zatím daří nalézat financování pro rostoucí počet zaměstnanců i finanční prostředky pro to, aby tito zaměstnanci mohli provádět špičkový výzkum. Tato aritmetika je trochu komplikovaná ze dvou důvodů – účetně se do provozního rozpočtu promítají i odpisy dlouhodobého majetku, takže reálnější hodnotu skutečně provozního rozpočtu bychom dostali, kdybychom odečetli kolem 400 miliónů Kč v obou letech.
