Summary: In this study, a simple model for photoinduced electron transfer reactions is examined for many donor-acceptor pairs collectively coupled to a photon mode of a cavity. The research reveals that reaction rates can be enhanced by the cavity under proper resonance conditions, with the largest enhancement potentially occurring in the weak light-matter coupling regime. The study discusses the relevance of the cavity effect in realistic experiments.

Summary: We theoretically study the topological properties in a one-dimensional superconducting circuit lattice and analyze the energy spectrum and edge states. The number of lattices affects the topological characteristics and the inversion of the edge state distribution can be realized. Considering the effects of defects, dissipation, and disorder, we find that they impact the system but the edge state remains stable due to topological protection.

Summary: An electron can function both as a particle and a probability wave, allowing for control and design of electronic devices similar to those based on light. This study focuses on the splitting of electron wavefunctions in systems with Dirac-type physics, such as graphene and topological insulators, analyzing electron beam-splitters, superfocusers, and nanoribbon propagation. The findings highlight the importance of balancing waveform, system geometry, and energies to maximize the probability density and lifetime of flying electrons, contributing to the development of quantum electron optics.

Summary: This study presents a highly quantized current pump mechanism that can pump multiple electrons in a single cycle. Experimental results show that increasing the electron throughput does not significantly degrade the accuracy of the produced current. The pump mechanism utilizes an aluminum gallium arsenide two-dimensional electron gas and a one-dimensional split-gate confinement potential, driven by an applied source-drain voltage and a trapezoidal waveform. This pump mechanism can reliably pump multiple integer numbers of electrons without the need for a magnetic field.

Summary: The interaction between two giant atoms mediated by a structured waveguide is studied. Decoherence-free interaction is possible inside the energy band but degraded due to time delay and non-Markovian effects. Outside the band, giant atoms can interact more strongly and over longer distances compared to small atoms.

Summary: Recent developments in coherent manipulation of electrons in ballistic conductors have led to the generation of time-periodic electrical currents involving one to few electronic excitations per period. In order to utilize individual electrons as carriers of quantum information for flying qubit computation or quantum metrology applications, a general method is needed to unravel the single-particle excitations embedded in a quantum electrical current and how quantum information is encoded within it.

Summary: General-purpose quantum computation and quantum simulation require precise and robust interqubit interactions in multi-qubit architectures, along with local addressability. Molecular systems, such as chlorinated triphenylmethyl organic radicals, show promise for large-scale quantum architectures due to their high degree of positionability and tailorability of interqubit interactions. This study demonstrates extraordinarily long coherence times up to 148 μs in the investigated molecular materials at temperatures below 100 K, and also showcases two-qubit and individual qubit addressability in the biradical system. These findings highlight the potential of molecular materials for the development of quantum architectures.

Summary: We investigate the interaction between a free electron and a group of identical optical emitters. The coherence and correlations among the emitters can strengthen the interaction with each electron and affect its energy spectrum. We propose methods to achieve such collective interactions. As an application, we study the interaction between free electrons and superradiant systems, demonstrating how electrons can probe the ultrafast population dynamics of superradiance.

Summary: Magnons can transfer magnetic moment or spin over long distances. In quantum Hall ferromagnets, it is predicted that spin and charge are entangled, resulting in magnons carrying an electric dipole moment. Evidence of this electric dipole moment is found in a graphene quantum Hall ferromagnet using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, with the magnons affecting interferometer flux and interference pattern phase and visibility. The ability to couple spin degree of freedom to an electrostatic potential in quantum Hall ferromagnets could have implications for spintronics.

Summary: This study aims to refine the dielectric characterization of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) in terms of low-field permittivity and high-field strength and conductivity. The results show that hBN has a low-field dielectric constant of around 3.4 and follows the Frenkel-Pool law for current leakage at high-field, with similar dielectric constant and trap energy as standard technologically relevant dielectrics.

Summary: Efforts have been made to understand and control decoherence in 2D electron systems, with graphene offering a unique opportunity to study unexplored regimes of electron interferometry. A graphene quantum Hall PN junction exhibits a remarkable crossover from exponential decay to algebraic decay of interference visibility as temperature decreases, a previously unobserved phenomenon in GaAs interferometers.

Summary: Researchers have achieved a mesoscopic variant of the Schwinger effect in graphene transistors, which involves the creation of matter by electric fields. By conducting transport measurements, they observed universal one-dimensional Schwinger conductance at the pinch-off of the transistors. These findings enhance our understanding of current saturation limits in ballistic graphene and open up new directions for quantum electrodynamic experiments in the laboratory.

Summary: This paper reports on the squeezing of bosonic edge magnetoplasmon modes in a quantum Hall conductor, whose characteristic impedance is determined by the quantum of resistance (RK 25 kS2), offering the possibility of enhanced coupling to low-dimensional quantum conductors. By applying a combination of dc and ac drives to a quantum point contact, squeezing is demonstrated and a noise reduction of 18% below vacuum fluctuations is observed, indicating the achievement of squeezing in a low impedance environment. The level of squeezing can be improved by using more complex conductors, such as ac driven quantum dots or mesoscopic capacitors.

Summary: Recent anyon collision experiments have shown the ability to distinguish between fermionic and anyonic statistics. However, only one type of anyons associated with the Laughlin state at filling factor nu = 1/3 has been studied so far. It is important to establish anyon collisions as quantitative probes for more complex topological orders and different species of anyons. In this study, we compare the Laughlin nu = 1/3 state with the Jain nu = 2/5 state, and demonstrate the robustness of anyon collision signals for anyons of the same type while also showing the ability to distinguish between different species of anyons. Our results indicate the influence of interchannel interactions in anyon collision experiments with multiple edge channels.

Summary: This article investigates an electronic Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer in the integer quantum Hall regime, where voltage pulses are used to generate colliding electronic states. The aim is to explore possible mechanisms that lead to a reduced visibility of the Pauli dip, which is the expected noise suppression for synchronized sources. It is found that the mixing of copropagating edge channels due to tunneling events between them can result in a reduced visibility of the Pauli dip.

Summary: This paper investigated the PAM decomposition of a type of CPM signal with single-side band property. The PAM decomposition was used as a convenient solution to provide a large reduced complexity trellis detection to approach the theoretical optimal performance. An algorithm was developed to obtain the necessary PAM pulses to approach the optimal performance bound using suboptimal receivers. The proposed demodulation system exhibited excellent performance with minimal complexity compared to the MLSD optimal receiver.
