--- _id: '9195' abstract: - lang: eng text: Quantum information technology based on solid state qubits has created much interest in converting quantum states from the microwave to the optical domain. Optical photons, unlike microwave photons, can be transmitted by fiber, making them suitable for long distance quantum communication. Moreover, the optical domain offers access to a large set of very well‐developed quantum optical tools, such as highly efficient single‐photon detectors and long‐lived quantum memories. For a high fidelity microwave to optical transducer, efficient conversion at single photon level and low added noise is needed. Currently, the most promising approaches to build such systems are based on second‐order nonlinear phenomena such as optomechanical and electro‐optic interactions. Alternative approaches, although not yet as efficient, include magneto‐optical coupling and schemes based on isolated quantum systems like atoms, ions, or quantum dots. Herein, the necessary theoretical foundations for the most important microwave‐to‐optical conversion experiments are provided, their implementations are described, and the current limitations and future prospects are discussed. acknowledgement: The authors thank Amita Deb for useful comments on this manuscript.

These circuit elements have a characteristic impedance exceeding the resistance quantum RQ ≈ 6.45 kΩ which leads to a suppression of ground state charge fluctuations. Applications include the realization of hardware protected qubits for fault tolerant quantum computing, improved coupling to small dipole moment objects and defining a new quantum metrology standard for the ampere. In this work we refute the widespread notion that superinductors can only be implemented based on kinetic inductance, i.e. using disordered superconductors or Josephson junction arrays. We present modeling, fabrication and characterization of 104 planar aluminum coil resonators with a characteristic impedance up to 30.9 kΩ at 5.6 GHz and a capacitance down to ≤ 1 fF, with lowloss and a power handling reaching 108 intra-cavity photons. Geometric superinductors are free of uncontrolled tunneling events and offer high reproducibility, linearity and the ability to couple magnetically - properties that significantly broaden the scope of future quantum circuits.

The proposed radiometer is based on an electro-optic upconverter that boosts up microwave photons energy by upconverting them into an optical domain what makes them immune to thermal noise even if operating at room temperature. The converter uses a high-quality factor whispering gallery\r\nmode (WGM) resonator providing naturally narrow bandwidth and therefore might be useful for applications like microwave hyperspectral sensing. The upconversion process is explained by\r\nproviding essential information about photon conversion efficiency and sensitivity.

A key challenge in this field is obtaining strong coupling between motion and electromagnetic fields without adding additional decoherence. Here we present an electromechanical transducer that integrates a high-frequency (0.42 GHz) hypersonic phononic crystal with a superconducting microwave circuit. The use of a phononic bandgap crystal enables quantum-level transduction of hypersonic mechanical motion and concurrently eliminates decoherence caused by acoustic radiation. Devices with hypersonic mechanical frequencies provide a natural pathway for integration with Josephson junction quantum circuits, a leading quantum computing technology, and nanophotonic systems capable of optical networking and distributing quantum information. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Mahmoud full_name: Kalaee, Mahmoud last_name: Kalaee - first_name: Mohammad full_name: Mirhosseini, Mohammad last_name: Mirhosseini - first_name: Paul B. full_name: Dieterle, Paul B. last_name: Dieterle - first_name: Matilda full_name: Peruzzo, Matilda id: 3F920B30-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Peruzzo orcid: 0000-0002-3415-4628 - first_name: Johannes M full_name: Fink, Johannes M id: 4B591CBA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fink orcid: 0000-0001-8112-028X - first_name: Oskar full_name: Painter, Oskar last_name: Painter citation: ama: Kalaee M, Mirhosseini M, Dieterle PB, Peruzzo M, Fink JM, Painter O.

There, complicated electric and magnetic fields varying over subwavelength scales are generally present, which results in photonic phenomena such as extraordinary optical momentum, superchiral fields, and a complex spatial evolution of optical singularities. An understanding of such phenomena requires nanoscale measurements of the complete optical field vector. Although the sensitivity of near- field scanning optical microscopy to the complete electromagnetic field was recently demonstrated, a separation of different components required a priori knowledge of the sample. Here, we introduce a robust algorithm that can disentangle all six electric and magnetic field components from a single near-field measurement without any numerical modeling of the structure. As examples, we unravel the fields of two prototypical nanophotonic structures: a photonic crystal waveguide and a plasmonic nanowire.

Higher bandwidths require higher total optical power, but the power sent into the fibre is limited by optical nonlinearities within the fibre, and energy consumption by the light sources starts to become a substantial cost factor1. Optical frequency combs have been suggested to remedy this problem by generating numerous discrete, equidistant laser lines within a monolithic device; however, at present their stability and coherence allow them to operate only within small parameter ranges2,3,4. Here we show that a broadband frequency comb realized through the electro-optic effect within a high-quality whispering-gallery-mode resonator can operate at low microwave and optical powers. Unlike the usual third-order Kerr nonlinear optical frequency combs, our combs rely on the second-order nonlinear effect, which is much more efficient. Our result uses a fixed microwave signal that is mixed with an optical-pump signal to generate a coherent frequency comb with a precisely determined carrier separation. The resonant enhancement enables us to work with microwave powers that are three orders of magnitude lower than those in commercially available devices. We emphasize the practical relevance of our results to high rates of data communication. To circumvent the limitations imposed by nonlinear effects in optical communication fibres, one has to solve two problems: to provide a compact and fully integrated, yet high-quality and coherent, frequency comb generator; and to calculate nonlinear signal propagation in real time5. We report a solution to the first problem.' article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Alfredo R full_name: Rueda Sanchez, Alfredo R id: 3B82B0F8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Rueda Sanchez orcid: 0000-0001-6249-5860 - first_name: Florian full_name: Sedlmeir, Florian last_name: Sedlmeir - first_name: Madhuri full_name: Kumari, Madhuri last_name: Kumari - first_name: Gerd full_name: Leuchs, Gerd last_name: Leuchs - first_name: Harald G.L. full_name: Schwefel, Harald G.L. last_name: Schwefel citation: ama: Rueda Sanchez AR, Sedlmeir F, Kumari M, Leuchs G, Schwefel HGL.

Continuous-variable entangled fields—known as Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) states—are spatially separated two-mode squeezed states that can be used for quantum teleportation and quantum communication2. In the optical domain, EPR states are typically generated using nondegenerate optical amplifiers3, and at microwave frequencies Josephson circuits can serve as a nonlinear medium4,5,6. An outstanding goal is to deterministically generate and distribute entangled states with a mechanical oscillator, which requires a carefully arranged balance between excitation, cooling and dissipation in an ultralow noise environment. Here we observe stationary emission of path-entangled microwave radiation from a parametrically driven 30-micrometre-long silicon nanostring oscillator, squeezing the joint field operators of two thermal modes by 3.40 decibels below the vacuum level. The motion of this micromechanical system correlates up to 50 photons per second per hertz, giving rise to a quantum discord that is robust with respect to microwave noise7. Such generalized quantum correlations of separable states are important for quantum-enhanced detection8 and provide direct evidence of the non-classical nature of the mechanical oscillator without directly measuring its state9. This noninvasive measurement scheme allows to infer information about otherwise inaccessible objects, with potential implications for sensing, open-system dynamics and fundamental tests of quantum gravity. In the future, similar on-chip devices could be used to entangle subsystems on very different energy scales, such as microwave and optical photons. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: NanoFab article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 - first_name: Elena full_name: Redchenko, Elena id: 2C21D6E8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Redchenko - first_name: Matilda full_name: Peruzzo, Matilda id: 3F920B30-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Peruzzo orcid: 0000-0002-3415-4628 - first_name: Matthias full_name: Wulf, Matthias id: 45598606-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Wulf orcid: 0000-0001-6613-1378 - first_name: Dylan full_name: Lewis, Dylan last_name: Lewis - first_name: Georg M full_name: Arnold, Georg M id: 3770C838-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Arnold orcid: 0000-0003-1397-7876 - first_name: Johannes M full_name: Fink, Johannes M id: 4B591CBA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fink orcid: 0000-0001-8112-028X citation: ama: Barzanjeh S, Redchenko E, Peruzzo M, et al.

The device is based on a single crystal whispering gallery mode resonator integrated into a 3D-microwave cavity. The specific design relies on a new combination of thin-film technology and conventional machining that is optimized for the lowest dissipation rates in the microwave, optical, and mechanical domains. We extract important device properties from finite-element simulations and predict continuous variable entanglement generation rates on the order of a Mebit/s for optical pump powers of only a few tens of microwatts. We compare the quantum state transfer fidelities of coherent, squeezed, and non-Gaussian cat states for both teleportation and direct conversion protocols under realistic conditions. Combining the unique capabilities of circuit quantum electrodynamics with the resilience of fiber optic communication could facilitate long-distance solid-state qubit networks, new methods for quantum signal synthesis, quantum key distribution, and quantum enhanced detection, as well as more power-efficient classical sensing and modulation. article_number: '108' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Alfredo R full_name: Rueda Sanchez, Alfredo R id: 3B82B0F8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Rueda Sanchez orcid: 0000-0001-6249-5860 - first_name: William J full_name: Hease, William J id: 29705398-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Hease orcid: 0000-0001-9868-2166 - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 - first_name: Johannes M full_name: Fink, Johannes M id: 4B591CBA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fink orcid: 0000-0001-8112-028X citation: ama: Rueda Sanchez AR, Hease WJ, Barzanjeh S, Fink JM.

In particular, we review the nanomechanical properties of microtubules (MTs), the latter being one of the most successful targets for cancer therapy. We propose an investigation on the coupling of electromagnetic radiation to mechanical vibrations of MTs as an important basis for biological and medical applications. In our opinion, optomechanical methods can accurately monitor and control the mechanical properties of isolated MTs in a liquid environment. Consequently, studying nanomechanical properties of MTs may give useful information for future applications to diagnostic and therapeutic technologies involving non-invasive externally applied physical fields. For example, electromagnetic fields or high intensity ultrasound can be used therapeutically avoiding harmful side effects of chemotherapeutic agents or classical radiation therapy. acknowledgement: The work of SB has been supported by the European Unions Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska Curie grant agreement No MSC-IF 707438 SUPEREOM.

Proposals have been put forward for the realization of artificial magnetic fields for photons and phonons; experimental progress is fast making these proposals a reality. Much work has concentrated on the use of such systems for controlling the flow of signals, e.g., to create isolators or directional amplifiers for optical signals. In this Letter, we build on this work but move in a different direction. We develop the theory of and discuss a potential realization for the controllable flow of thermal noise in quantum systems. We demonstrate theoretically that the unidirectional flow of thermal noise is possible within quantum cascaded systems. Viewing an optomechanical platform as a cascaded system we show here that one can ultimately control the direction of the flow of thermal noise. By appropriately engineering the mechanical resonator, which acts as an artificial reservoir, the flow of thermal noise can be constrained to a desired direction, yielding a thermal rectifier. The proposed quantum thermal noise rectifier could potentially be used to develop devices such as a thermal modulator, a thermal router, and a thermal amplifier for nanoelectronic devices and superconducting circuits. article_number: '060601 ' article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 - first_name: Matteo full_name: Aquilina, Matteo last_name: Aquilina - first_name: André full_name: Xuereb, André last_name: Xuereb citation: ama: Barzanjeh S, Aquilina M, Xuereb A.

Quantum states, including entangled states, are fragile and easily disturbed by excessive thermal noise. Here we address the question of whether it is possible to create non-reciprocal devices that encourage the flow of thermal noise towards or away from a particular quantum device in a network. Our work makes use of the cascaded systems formalism to answer this question in the affirmative, showing how a three-port device can be used as an effective thermal transistor, and illustrates how this formalism maps onto an experimentally-realisable optomechanical system. Our results pave the way to more resilient quantum devices and to the use of thermal noise as a resource. alternative_title: - Proceedings of SPIE article_number: 106721N article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: André full_name: Xuereb, André last_name: Xuereb - first_name: Matteo full_name: Aquilina, Matteo last_name: Aquilina - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 citation: ama: 'Xuereb A, Aquilina M, Barzanjeh S.

The need for cryogenic systems increases the cost and complexity of the instruments, hindering the development of, among others, airborne and space applications. In this work, the nonlinear parametric upconversion of millimeter-wave radiation to the optical domain inside high-quality (Q) lithium niobate whispering-gallery mode (WGM) resonators is proposed for ultra-low noise detection. We experimentally demonstrate coherent upconversion of millimeter-wave signals to a 1550 nm telecom carrier, with a photon conversion efficiency surpassing the state-of-the-art by 2 orders of magnitude. Moreover, a theoretical model shows that the thermal equilibrium of counterpropagating WGMs is broken by overcoupling the millimeter-wave WGM, effectively cooling the upconverted mode and allowing ultra-low noise detection. By theoretically estimating the sensitivity of a correlation radiometer based on the presented scheme, it is found that room-temperature radiometers with better sensitivity than state-of-the-art high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT)-based radiometers can be designed. This detection paradigm can be used to develop room-temperature instrumentation for radio astronomy, earth observation, planetary missions, and imaging systems. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Gabriel full_name: Botello, Gabriel last_name: Botello - first_name: Florian full_name: Sedlmeir, Florian last_name: Sedlmeir - first_name: Alfredo R full_name: Rueda Sanchez, Alfredo R id: 3B82B0F8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Rueda Sanchez orcid: 0000-0001-6249-5860 - first_name: Kerlos full_name: Abdalmalak, Kerlos last_name: Abdalmalak - first_name: Elliott full_name: Brown, Elliott last_name: Brown - first_name: Gerd full_name: Leuchs, Gerd last_name: Leuchs - first_name: Sascha full_name: Preu, Sascha last_name: Preu - first_name: Daniel full_name: Segovia Vargas, Daniel last_name: Segovia Vargas - first_name: Dmitry full_name: Strekalov, Dmitry last_name: Strekalov - first_name: Luis full_name: Munoz, Luis last_name: Munoz - first_name: Harald full_name: Schwefel, Harald last_name: Schwefel citation: ama: Botello G, Sedlmeir F, Rueda Sanchez AR, et al.

But one technology that has so far failed to prove its worth in this wavelength regime is quantum communication that uses the states of single photons as information carriers. This is because single microwave photons, as opposed to classical microwave signals, are extremely vulnerable to noise from thermal excitations in the channels through which they travel. Two new independent studies, one by Ze-Liang Xiang at Technische Universität Wien (Vienna), Austria, and colleagues [1] and another by Benoît Vermersch at the University of Innsbruck, also in Austria, and colleagues [2] now describe a theoretical protocol for microwave quantum communication that is resilient to thermal and other types of noise. Their approach could become a powerful technique to establish fast links between superconducting data processors in a future all-microwave quantum network. article_processing_charge: No article_type: review author: - first_name: Johannes M full_name: Fink, Johannes M id: 4B591CBA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fink orcid: 0000-0001-8112-028X citation: ama: 'Fink JM.

However, little is known about the dynamic (high-frequency) mechanical properties of microtubules. Here, we theoretically propose to control the vibrations of a doubly clamped microtubule by tip electrodes and to detect its motion via the optomechanical coupling between the vibrational modes of the microtubule and an optical cavity. In the presence of a red-detuned strong pump laser, this coupling leads to optomechanical-induced transparency of an optical probe field, which can be detected with state-of-the art technology. The center frequency and line width of the transparency peak give the resonance frequency and damping rate of the microtubule, respectively, while the height of the peak reveals information about the microtubule-cavity field coupling. Our method opens the new possibilities to gain information about the physical properties of microtubules, which will enhance our capability to design physical cancer treatment protocols as alternatives to chemotherapeutic drugs. article_number: '012404' author: - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 - first_name: Vahid full_name: Salari, Vahid last_name: Salari - first_name: Jack full_name: Tuszynski, Jack last_name: Tuszynski - first_name: Michal full_name: Cifra, Michal last_name: Cifra - first_name: Christoph full_name: Simon, Christoph last_name: Simon citation: ama: Barzanjeh S, Salari V, Tuszynski J, Cifra M, Simon C.
