One-of-a-kind Microscope Enables Breakthrough in Quantum Science

04 Jun 2020

A quantum microscope that records the flow of light, enabling the direct observation of light trapped inside a photonic crystal.

Spontaneous Hawking Radiation and Beyond: Observing The Time Evolution of an Analogue Black Hole

02 Jun 2020

We confirm the stationary character of the spontaneous Hawking radiation in an analogue black hole. Furthermore, we follow the time evolution of the Hawking...

Learning a Local Hamiltonian from Local Measurements

02 Jun 2020

A new method for learning quantum dynamics with applications to quantum device characterization and quantum materials research.

Quantum Entanglement of The Spin and Orbital Angular Momentum of Photons Using Metamaterials

02 Jun 2020

Metamaterials constructed from deep subwavelength building blocks have been used to demonstrate phenomena ranging from negative refractive index and e-near-zero to cloaking, emulations of general relativity, and superresolution imaging....

“Quantum Mechanics in Nanoscience and Engineering”- Prof. Uri Peskin

The book goes from basic quantum mechanics to phenomena and processes in the “real world” (Thermal, wet, dense etc). The book covers most of the topics in elementary courses of introduction to QM and quantum chemistry, as well as some advanced topics (e.g., open quantum systems, charge and energy transport, etc) The pedagogical attitude formulates much of the technical steps as questions/guided exercises. Just reading these exercises already gives a flavor of the underlying proofs, for “easy” reading. More rigorous students would probably want to actively solve the exercises or follow the

Gefen Baranes (MIT and Harvard University) :"Designing Fault-Tolerant Scalable Blind Quantum Computation: Architecture and Experiment"

Blind quantum computing (BQC) allows a client to delegate quantum computations to a server while keeping both data and algorithms private. However, practical BQC faces major challenges when scaling to fault-tolerant regimes due to losses, overhead, and limited client capabilities.
