  2. 11. Quantum acoustics with propagating phonons

    Author : Maria Ekström; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; phonon router; phonon; quantum acoustics; interdigital transducer; Electromagnetically Induced Transparency; artificial atom; Surface acoustic wave; superconducting circuits; qubit; unidirectional transducer;

    Abstract : Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are mechanical vibrations that propagate on the surface of solids while dissipating little power, consequently enabling them to propagate freely over long distances. The speed and wavelength of SAWs are reduced a five order of magnitude compared to when light is used as a carrier at gigahertz frequencies. READ MORE

  5. 13. Towards measuring quantum sound

    Author : Maria Ekström; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; surface acoustic wave; interdigital transducer; artificial atom; qubit; superconducting circuits; cryogenic temperature; phonon; gigahertz frequency; quantum acoustics; unidirectional transducer;

    Abstract : One of the most fundamental phenomena occurring in nature is the interaction between single atoms and electromagnetic fields. This is studied in quantum optics to probe the quantum nature of the system. In appended Paper I, we demonstrated that an artificial atom can couple to propagating sound, which is the acoustic analogue of quantum optics. READ MORE

  6. 14. Vertical III-V Semiconductor Devices

    Author : Tomas Bryllert; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Halvledarfysik; Semiconductory physics; heterostructure barrier varactor frequency multiplier; field effect transistor; resonant tunneling; artificial molecule; terahertz; nanowire; Quantum dots;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on three projects that deal with vertical III-V semiconductor devices. The work spans over basic research as well as more applied aspects of III-V semiconductor technology. All projects have in common that they rely on advanced epitaxial growth to form the starting material for device fabrication. READ MORE

  7. 15. Probing quantum and classical noise in nano circuits
