Summary: This study experimentally demonstrates the conversion of local and correlated Gaussian quantum coherence in the process of converting two squeezed states into an entangled state, and investigates the relationship among total, local, and correlated coherence. The results highlight the connection of different quantum coherence in a two-mode Gaussian system and provide references for potential application.

Summary: In this study, the problem of state transformations in the presence of catalysts is examined within the framework of Gaussian thermal resource theory. The results show that strong catalysts are ineffective for the single mode case, while weak catalysts can achieve more final system states. Necessary conditions for Gaussian thermal state transformations are derived for different numbers of modes, including strong catalysts, approximate transformations, and weak catalysts with and without a thermal bath.

Summary: This study investigates the thermalization of small quantum systems interacting with large chaotic environments from the perspective of the zeroth law of thermodynamics. By using a two-level probe quantum system, it is found that the zeroth law is applicable to quantum chaotic systems, but not to integrable systems.

Summary: An interesting class of physical systems, including those associated with life, demonstrates the ability to hold thermalization at bay and perpetuate states of high free-energy compared to a local environment. In this work, we study quantum systems with no external sources or sinks for energy, heat, work, or entropy that allow for high free-energy subsystems to form and persist. By analyzing the dynamics and initial conditions of qubits, we find that restricted connectivity and an inhomogeneous distribution of initial temperatures lead to longer intervals of increasing extractable work for individual qubits on landscapes of co-evolving qubits.

Summary: Quantum measurements using entangled photons' polarization require calibration and alignment of the bases between observers. The changing birefringence in optical fibers makes the polarization state unpredictable, posing challenges to classical methods. A fast automatic alignment method using the Nelder-Mead simplex method is introduced, demonstrating successful alignment in both deployed and controlled scenarios.

Summary: This study demonstrates a method for producing quantum dot (QD) patterns with sufficient thickness for efficient color conversion in micro-LED displays. The technique combines replicate molding, plasma etching, and transfer printing to simplify the preparation of QD inks and minimize optical damage. Control of pixel resolution and thickness is achieved through the microstructures of the molding template and etching process. The resulting QD patterns show improved color conversion and have the potential for use in full-color micro-LED displays.
