Unveiling the Invisible: Quantum Defects, Hidden Orders, and the Quest for Dark Matter
Sinéad M. Griffin, Staff Scientist at the Berkeley Lab
November 7, 11:00 am – noon
West Hall, Room 411
Abstract:
At the heart of scalable quantum technologies are interconnected physical systems composed of precisely tailored materials, often operating at their classical and quantum limits. In this talk, I will present our advances in developing and applying theoretical and computational approaches to tackle the unique challenges of predicting and designing quantum phenomena in solid-state systems, connecting atomic-scale information with macroscopic functionality. I will showcase select examples from our group, including the ab initio design of solid-state quantum defects through the establishment of the “Quantum Defects Genome,” leveraging high-throughput materials genomics with state-of-the-art computational techniques. Next, I will discuss our proposal of how emergent phenomena in quantum materials—such as topology, multiferroicity, and superconductivity—are promising platforms for novel quantum sensing schemes aimed at detecting elusive dark matter. I will demonstrate how designer Hamiltonian approaches offer new concepts and enhanced sensitivities for low-mass dark matter detection. Lastly, I will present recent results from our group on the extension of this approach to experimental probes sensitive to ‘hidden’ order parameters, such as the newly proposed ‘altermagnets’, and discuss how these probes provide new quantitative insights into underlying fundamental physics through correlated spectroscopies and microscopies.

Attosecond goes quantum in solids
Michael Krueger, Assistant Professor / Senior Lecturer
Department of Physics and Solid State Institute
Technion at Israel Institute of Technology
October 17, 11:00 am – noon | West Hall, Room 411
Abstract:
Attosecond physics looks into ultrafast light-matter interactions, with high-harmonic generation (HHG) as its hallmark effect. It relies on intense classical (coherent-state) laser light with large photon numbers, while quantum optics usually operates with low photon numbers and non-classical quantum states. In my talk, I will present two works that bridge between attosecond physics and quantum optics. In the first work, we successfully replace the classical (coherent-state) laser pulses by intense non-classical light – bright squeezed vacuum (BSV) – to drive HHG in solids. We show how the BSV’s extremely noisy photon statistics is transferred to its harmonics, leading to a strong enhancement of the harmonic yield and enabling studies of electron-hole dynamics at extreme intensities. In a second work, we measure the Wigner function of a harmonic driven by classical (coherent-state) light in the non-perturbative regime, showing that the quantum state of the harmonic is not trivial. Our work bears the prospect of extending the frontier of quantum optics and non-classical light into the extreme-ultraviolet spectral regime.

Engineering Robust Quantum Systems with Quantum Control
Paola Cappellaro, Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering, Professor of Physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology
October 10, 11:00 am – noon
West Hall, Room 411
Abstract:
Quantum devices could perform some informational tasks with much better performances than classical systems, with profound implications for cryptography, chemistry, material science, and many areas of physics. However, to reach this goal we need to control large quantum systems, where the many-body dynamics might scramble the quantum information, heating up the system to its thermal state.
There are then two key questions:
- How does a closed quantum system thermalize (thus losing its “quantum power”)?
- How can we preserve quantum information in the presence of strong interactions, disorder and noise?
Using spins as an exemplary experimental system, I will show how to choreograph their dynamics in order to prevent the system from heating up, even in the presence of strong interactions among spins. I will further show how we can turn disorder from a source of noise to a tool that enables probing the system at the angstrom level. An exemplary application is the creation and characterization of a robust time crystal.

New Platforms for Quantum Sensing and Quantum Computing
Nathalie de Leon, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton University
September 26, 11:00 am – noon
Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project (2000PML)
Abstract:
The nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond exhibits spin-dependent fluorescence and long spin coherence times under ambient conditions, enabling applications in quantum information processing and sensing. NV centers near the surface can have strong interactions with external materials and spins, enabling new forms of nanoscale spectroscopy. However, NV spin coherence degrades within 100 nanometers of the surface, suggesting that diamond surfaces are plagued with ubiquitous defects. I will describe our recent efforts to correlate direct materials characterization with single spin measurements to devise methods to stabilize highly coherent NV centers within nanometers of the surface. We deploy these coherent shallow NV centers for a new nanoscale sensing technique, whereby we use covariance measurements of two or more NV centers to measure two-point magnetic field correlators.
Our approach for correlating surface spectroscopy techniques with single qubit measurements to realize directed improvements is generally applicable to many systems. Separately, I will describe our recent efforts to tackle noise and microwave losses in superconducting qubits. Building large, useful quantum systems based on transmon qubits will require significant improvements in qubit relaxation and coherence times, which are orders of magnitude shorter than limits imposed by bulk properties of the constituent materials. This indicates that loss likely originates from uncontrolled surfaces, interfaces, and contaminants. Previous efforts to improve qubit lifetimes have focused primarily on designs that minimize contributions from surfaces. However, significant improvements in the lifetime of planar transmon qubits have remained elusive for several years. We have recently fabricated planar transmon qubits that have both lifetimes and coherence times exceeding 0.3 milliseconds by using tantalum as the material in the capacitor. Following this discovery, we have parametrized the remaining sources of loss in state-of-the-art devices using systematic measurements of the dependence of loss on temperature, power, and geometry. This parametrization, complemented by direct materials characterization, allows for rational, directed improvement of superconducting qubits.

Exploring Selective Radiance With Trapped Atoms on a Nanophotonic Resonator
Chen-Lung Hung, Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Purdue University
September 12, 11:00 am – noon
West Hall, Room 411
Abstract:
Control and manipulation of the collective radiative states of atomic systems could bring new opportunities for quantum many-body physics and quantum networks. In this talk, I will discuss our recent investigation on “selective radiance,” a phenomenon in which an atomic excitation couples to a specific photonic channel with collective enhancement (called ‘superradiance’) but to all other channels with suppression (‘subradiance’). Following our recent experimental realization of cold atom trapping on a nanophotonic microring resonator, we study how a dense atomic ensemble collectively couples to a whispering-gallery-mode in the resonator and to other free space modes. I will discuss the decay dynamics of an atomic ensemble following long and short excitation pulses, with the former driving the system into a steady state and the latter into a so-called timed-Dicke state. I will discuss the potential of our platform to realize selective radiance in an atom array and explore collective quantum optics with trapped atoms coupled to nanophotonic circuits.

Demonstration of Algorithmic Quantum Speedup
Daniel Lidar, Viterbi Professor of Engineering at USC
March 21, 11:00 am – noon
Pierpont Commons
Boulevard Room (1st floor)
Zoom option
Despite the development of increasingly capable quantum computers, an experimental demonstration of an algorithmic quantum speedup employing today’s non-fault-tolerant devices has remained elusive. In this talk, I will report on three very recent demonstrations of such a speedup, focusing on how solution times scale with problem size. Two of the demonstrations use IBM’s superconducting quantum computers and involve modified versions of foundational black-box quantum algorithms. In contrast with recent quantum supremacy demonstrations, these quantum speedups do not rely on complexity-theoretic conjectures. The third demonstration uses a D-Wave quantum annealer and involves approximate optimization in the context of spin glass problems. In all cases, our work incorporates tailored quantum error suppression methods, which we found to be necessary in order for the quantum speedup to appear.

Finally, I will describe our effort towards networking ion trap quantum computers in a city-sized network for new quantum technology applications.

Quantum photonics with rare-earth atoms in solids
Dr. Elizabeth Goldschmidt, Assistant Professor of Physics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
February 8, 11 am – 12 pm
Henderson Room (3rd floor) at the Michigan League
Zoom option
Optically active and highly coherent emitters in solids are a promising platform for a wide variety of quantum information applications, particularly quantum memory and other quantum networking tasks. Rare-earth atoms, in addition to having record long coherence times, have the added benefit that they can be hosted in a wide range of solid-state materials. We can thus target particular materials (and choose particular rare-earth species and isotopes) that enable certain application-specific functionalities. I will give an overview of this promising field and discuss several ongoing projects with rare-earth atoms in different host materials and configurations. This includes efforts to identify and grow new materials with rare-earth atoms at stoichiometric concentrations in order to reduce disorder-induced inhomogeneous broadening, as well as photonic integration of rare-earth doped samples to increase the light-atom interaction for practical quantum devices.
