Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers as Non-Classical Light Source for Microwave Quantum Illumination

2021

Abstract Detection of low-reflectivity objects can be enriched via the so-called quantum illumination procedure. In order that this quantum procedure outperforms classical detection protocols, entangled states of microwave radiation are initially required. In this paper, we discuss the role of Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers (JTWPAs), based on circuit-QED components, as suitable sources of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, a special signal-idler entangled state. The obtained wide bandwidth makes the JTWPA an ideal candidate for generating quantum radiation in quantum metrology and information processing applications.

Vibrational Spectra of Polyatomic Molecules through an Algebraic Approach

1987

The study of molecular oscillators may be performed with algebraic methods based upon dynamical chains and their realization in terms of boson operators. From the dynamical algebra U(p+1) for p equivalent oscillators, associated with stretching modes, the local, pseudo-normal and normal limits are obtained through appropriate subgroup chains and various realizations of the U(p+1) generators. Similar technics can be applied to bending modes. Application to XY4 molecules will be presented.

A study of Wigner functions for discrete-time quantum walks

2013

We perform a systematic study of the discrete time Quantum Walk on one dimension using Wigner functions, which are generalized to include the chirality (or coin) degree of freedom. In particular, we analyze the evolution of the negative volume in phase space, as a function of time, for different initial states. This negativity can be used to quantify the degree of departure of the system from a classical state. We also relate this quantity to the entanglement between the coin and walker subspaces.

Oб определении внутримолекулярной потенциальной функции многоатомной молекулы H2S

2008

In modern molecular physics, there are two basic methods of determining the intramolecular potential function of polyatomic molecules. The first method is ab initio calculations and the second is the so-called semi-empirical method in which the Hamiltonian parameters are varied by direct construction of the Hamiltonian matrix. In the present work, the second approach is discussed on the example of the XY2 three-atomic molecule of the C2v symmetry. On the one hand, it is extremely simple for implementation, and on the other hand, it considerably extends the capability of application of the traditional semi-empirical methods. The approach suggested involves two aspects that make it advantageo…

SELECTIVE AMPLIFICATION OF NARROW RESONANCE FORMED IN TRANSMISSION SPECTRUM OF Rb NANO-CELL IN MAGNETIC FIELD

2012

Recently it was shown that "λ-Zeeman Technique" (λ-ZT) is a convenient tool to study individual transitions between the Zeeman sublevels of hyperfine levels in an external magnetic field. λ-ZT is based on resonant transmission spectrum of nanometric thin cell (NTC) of thickness L = λ, where λ is the resonant wavelength 794 nm for Rb D1 line. Narrow velocity selective optical pumping (VSOP) resonances in the transmission spectrum of the NTC are split into several components in a magnetic field. Examination of VSOP resonances allows one to identify and investigate an atomic transition in the range of magnetic fields 10 - 5000 G. Here we present a new method for selective addressing of VSOP r…

Investigation of the vibrational dynamics of the HCN/CNH isomers through high order canonical perturbation theory

2000

International audience; Molecular vibrations of the molecule HCN/CNH are examined using a combination of a minimum energy path Hamiltonian and high order canonical perturbation theory , as suggested in a recent work [D. Sugny and M. Joyeux, J. Chem. Phys. 112, 31 (2000)]. In addition, the quantum analog of the classical CPT is presented and results obtained therefrom are compared to the classical ones. The MEP Hamiltonian is shown to provide an accurate representation of the original potential energy surface and a convenient starting point for the CPT. The CPT results are subsequently used to elucidate the molecular dynamics: It appears that the isomerization dynamics of HCN/CNH is very tri…

Multispectrum fits for line mixing in the ν3 band Q branch of methane

2003

International audience; First-order line-mixing coefficients and model relaxation matrix element scaling factors have been obtained for allowed transitions in the nu3 band Q branch of CH4 broadened by H2, He, N2, O2, Ar, and CH4. The broadening, shifting, Dicke-narrowing, and line-mixing parameters are determined by simultaneous least-squares fitting of spectra at pressures from 0.014 to 66.66 kPa recorded with a high-resolution difference-frequency laser. These results confirm, improve, and extend a previous analysis of the lower pressure (613.3 kPa) data [A.S. Pine, J. Chem. Phys. 97 (1992) 773] which yielded averaged coefficients of individually fit spectra where adjacent broadened lines…

On the high resolution spectroscopy and intramolecular potential function of SO2

2009

Abstract Two weak stretching bands, ν 1  + 3 ν 3 and 3 ν 1  +  ν 3 , of the sulfur dioxide molecule have been recorded at high resolution and analyzed for the first time with using a Fourier transform Bruker IFS-120 HR interferometer. About 1000 transitions with J max .  = 51, K a max . = 16 , and 900 transitions with J max .  = 53, K a max . = 16 have been assigned to the bands ν 1  + 3 ν 3 and 3 ν 1  +  ν 3 , respectively. Analysis of the recorded spectra was made using the model of isolated vibrational states. Parameters obtained from the fit reproduce the initial experimental ro-vibrational energies with the rms deviation of 0.0006 and 0.0012 cm −1 for the bands, 3 ν 1  +  ν 3 and ν 1  …
