摘要:
Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for generating an entangled state of qubits. In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for preparing an entangled state of qubits comprises providing a probe and N non-interacting qubits, each qubit comprises a linear superposition of two basis states. The probe is transmitted into an interaction region that separately couples the probe to each of the qubits and produces a number of different probes. A linear superposition of states is output from the interaction region, each state in the linear superposition of states comprises a tensor product of entangled basis states and one of the different probes. The linear superposition of states is projected into one of the entangled states by measuring the state of the probe.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for determining a phase shift acquired by an entangled N-qubit system represented by a NOON state. In one embodiment, a probe electromagnetic field is coupled with each qubit system. The phase shift acquired by the qubit systems is transferred to the probe electromagnetic field by transforming each qubit-system state into a linear superposition of qubit basis states. An intensity measurement is performed on the probe electromagnetic field in order to obtain a corresponding measurement result. A counter associated with a measurement-result interval is incremented, based on the measurement result falling within the measurement-result interval. A frequency distribution is produced by normalizing the counter associated with each measurement-result interval for a number of trials. The phase shift is determined by fitting a probability distribution associated with the probe electromagnetic field to the frequency distribution as a function of the phase shift.

Nonlinear electromagnetic elements can efficiently implement quantum information processing tasks such as controlled phase shifts, non-demolition state detection, quantum subspace projections, non-demolition Bell state analysis, heralded state preparation, quantum non-demolition encoding, and fundamental quantum gate operations. Direct use of electromagnetic non-linearity can amplify small phase shifts and use feed forward systems in a near deterministic manner with high operating efficiency. Measurements using homodyne detectors can cause near deterministic projection of input states on a Hilbert subspace identified by the measurement results. Feed forward operation can then alter the projected state if desired to achieve a desired output state with near 100% efficiency.

A photonic interconnect method avoids high capacitance electric interconnects by using optical signals to communicate data between devices. The method can provide massively parallel information output by mapping logical addresses to frequency bands, so that modulation of a selected frequency band can encode information for a specific location corresponding to the logical address. Wavelength-specific directional couplers, modulators, and detectors, which can be fabricated at defects in a photonic bandgap crystal, can be employed for the photonic interconnect method. The interconnect method can be used for both classical and quantum information processing.
摘要:
We propose a practical method to generate cluster states for quantum computers. The qubit systems can be NV-centers in diamond, Pauli-blockade quantum dots with an excess electron or ion traps with optical transitions, which are subsequently entangled using a so-called double-heralded single-photon detection scheme. The fidelity of the resulting entanglement is extremely robust against the most important practical errors such as detector loss, light collection efficiency and mode mismatching. The cluster states are generated efficiently using a modified probabilistic teleportation protocol.

A photonic interconnect system avoids high capacitance electric interconnects by using optical signals to communicate data between devices. The system can provide massively parallel information output by mapping logical addresses to frequency bands, so that modulation of a selected frequency band can encode information for a specific location corresponding to the logical address. The system comprises a first device containing a plurality of locations that are separately accessible and a plurality of optical decoders respectively associated with the locations; a second device that generates a logical address identifying a selected one of the locations in the first device; a converter capable of activating each of a plurality of components of an optical signal; and an optical path from the converter to each of the locations. The system can be used for both classical and quantum information processing.

A brake assembly generally includes a hanging brake pad, an abutted brake pad and a caliper body that clamps the pads against a rotor. The brake system comprises a support bracket having a first portion and a second portion. The first portion defines an aperture that receives the abutted brake pad. The second portion extends generally perpendicular from the first portion. At least one rail extends from the second portion. The at least one rail receives the hanging brake pad and wherein the support bracket is adapted to connect to the caliper body.

A disc brake caliper assembly is provided including a support bracket, a pair of slide pins, and a caliper body. The support bracket includes an inboard rail and an outboard rail. The inboard rail defines a pair of engagement bores. The pair of slide pins engage the pair of engagement bores. The caliper body slidably engages the pair of slide pins. The caliper body includes an inboard portion and an outboard portion. The inboard and outboard portions balance each other such that the caliper body has a center of gravity that is substantially axially aligned with the location of engagement between the slide pins and the engagement bores.
