Abstract Quantum computing leverages the quantum resources of superposition and entanglement to efficiently solve computational problems considered intractable for classical computers. Examples include calculating molecular nuclear structure, simulating strongly interacting electron systems, modeling aspects material function. While substantial theoretical advances have been made in mapping these algorithms, there remains a large gap between resource requirements solving such capabilities...

Vibration sensitivity is an important specification for oscillators on mobile systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) etc. These systems must provide superior performance when subject to severe environmental conditions. Electronic often can sufficiently low intrinsic phase modulation (PM) noise satisfy particular system requirements in a quiet environment. However, mechanical vibration and acceleration introduce deformations that degrade the oscillator's otherwise PM noise. This degrades of...

Optoelectronic oscillators (OEO), utilizing the low loss nature of optical links, can generate oscillations with very high Q values. The long delay line used in oscillator can, however, support many modes oscillation. Mode spacing is inversely proportional to length link. be improved by increasing at expense tighter mode spacing. undesirable become more difficult filter RF domain as becomes closer. There are different techniques for minimizing impact competing on desired one....

We demonstrate direct evaporative cooling of $^{87}$Rb atoms confined in a dimple trap produced by an atom chip. By changing the two chip currents and external bias fields, we show theoretically that depth can be lowered controlled way with no change frequencies or value field at center. Experimentally, maximized decrease allowing some loosening trap. In total, reduced factor 20.

Many of the challenges scaling quantum computer hardware lie at interface between qubits and classical control signals used to manipulate them. Modular ion trap architectures address scalability by constructing individual processors interconnected via a network communication channels.
