Single-Atom Transport Extended to Model Many-Body Setting of Bosonic Atom Transport

Scientists have pushed back the boundaries of atom-based transport, creating a current by charac-terising the many-body effects in the transport of the atoms along a periodic lattice. This work by Anton Ivanov and colleagues from the Institute for Theoretical Physics, at the University of Heidel-berg, Germany, adopted a new analytical approach before comparing it to approximate numerical simulations, and is reported in a paper recently published in EPJ B.

Novel Method Controls Quantum Bits for Quantum Communication in Quantum Dots

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, together with colleagues in the US and Australia, have developed a method to control a quantum bit for electronic quantum communication in a series of quantum dots, which behave like artificial atoms in the solid state. The results have been published in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.

JQI’s Semiconductor-Based Qubit Design Addresses Qubit Robustness Issues

Encoding information using quantum bits—which can be maintained in a superposition of states—is at the heart of quantum computing. Superposition states offer the advantage of massive parallelism compared to conventional computing using digital bits---which can assume only one value at a time.

Systematic Synthesizing of Quantum Dots

Preparing semiconductor quantum dots is sometimes more of a black art than a science. That presents an obstacle to further progress in, for example, creating better solar cells or lighting devices, where quantum dots offer unique advantages that would be particularly useful if they could be used as basic building blocks for constructing larger nanoscale architectures.

Novel Theoretical Approach to Reliably Reset Quantum Dot Qubits

What will a quantum computer look like? It will probably not resemble your laptop. Yet, the semiconductor industry, residing at the heart of modern computing, has features that may carry over. Semiconductors are scalable: today’s processors (2.5 centimeters on a side) hold billions of transistors.
