Dubost, Brice (Date of defense: 2012-11-26)
(English) The study of quantum light-matter interaction with atomic ensembles is an active research area. This kind of system allows fundamental studies on measurement in the context of continuous ...
Behbood, Naeimeh (Date of defense: 2015-04-17)
(English) This thesis describes the generation of macroscopic spin singlets in a cold atomic ensemble by performing quantum non-demolition measurement. Toward this goal we have implemented a realtime ...
Alves, Natália Domingues (Date of defense: 2023-06-16)
(English) This thesis studies, using simulation and experiment, the motional dynamics of a single atom in an optical dipole trap. The optical dipole trap we study is a single-beam, red-detuned, ...
Heller, Lukas (Date of defense: 2023-11-06)
(English) Quantum memories are devices that are able to store photonic quantum states and entanglement. Future quantum networks, which could enhance cybersecurity through quantum key distribution, improve ...
Mazzinghi, Chiara (Date of defense: 2023-07-26)
(English) In this work we propose and demonstrate cavity-enhanced polarization rotation to detect magnetic effects in transparent media with greater sensitivity at equal optical disturbance to the atomic ...
Rakonjac, Jelena Velibor (Date of defense: 2023-06-26)
(English) Future networks for quantum communication will require a new form of technology in order to operate over long distances. The no-cloning theorem precludes the use of amplification, so quantum ...
