Block, Alexander (Fecha de defensa: 2019-09-06)
Heat transport in solids is one of the oldest problems in physics, dating back to the earliest formulations of thermodynamics. The classical laws of heat conduction are valid as long as the observed time and length scales ...
Bourdoncle, Boris (Fecha de defensa: 2019-02-13)
The twentieth century was marked by two scientific revolutions. On the one hand, quantum mechanics questioned our understanding of nature and physics. On the other hand, came the realisation that information could be treated ...
Laparra Cuervo, Lara (Fecha de defensa: 2018-03-28)
The arrival of super-resolution techniques has driven researchers to explore biological areas that were unreachable before. Such techniques not only allowed the improvement of spatial resolution in images but also the ...
Charalambous, Christos (Fecha de defensa: 2020-01-31)
Quantum Brownian motion is one of the most prominent examples of an open quantum system, a system which cannot be treated in isolation from its environment. The simplest method to study the dynamics of a system undergoing ...
Lampo, Aniello (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-02)
Quantum Brownian motion represents a paradigmatic model of open quantum system, namely a system which cannot be treated as an isolated one, because of the unavoidable interaction with the surrounding environment. In this ...
Albrecht, Boris (Fecha de defensa: 2015-12-01)
Optical quantum memories are important devices in quantum information science. In particular, they are building blocks of quantum repeater architectures that have been proposed to increase the range of quantum communication ...
Maring, Nicolas (Fecha de defensa: 2018-09-13)
The ability to control the optical frequency of quantum state carriers (i.e. photons) is an important functionality for future quantum networks. It allows all matter quantum systems - nodes of the network - to be compatible ...
Zamora, Alejandro (Fecha de defensa: 2014-12-15)
The study of ultracold atoms constitutes one of the hottest areas of atomic, molecular, and optical physics and quantum optics. The experimental and theoretical achievements in the last three decades in the control and ...
Pozas Kerstjens, Alejandro (Fecha de defensa: 2019-10-15)
Quantum theory, as counter-intuitive as a theory can get, has turned out to make predictions of the physical world that match observations so precisely that it has been described as the most accurate physical theory ever ...
Máttar Flores, Alejandro (Fecha de defensa: 2017-10-17)
According to recent estimates, 10^18 bytes of data are generated on a daily basis around the globe. Our information society urges for radical solutions to treat such data deluge. By exploiting fundamental key elements of ...
Rieländer, Daniel (Fecha de defensa: 2016-11-24)
This PhD thesis is in the scope of experimental quantum communication. It deals with correlated photon pairs of which one photon is stored in a solid state device, while the other photon is at telecom wavelength. Quantum ...
Distante, Emanuele (Fecha de defensa: 2017-03-24)
Nonlinear optics at the single-photon level enables deterministic photonphoton interaction, a long-standing goal in quantum photonics science. Besides its implication in fundamental aspects of physics, this would unlock ...
Cabrera Córdova, César Raymundo (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-10)
In this thesis, we report on the design and construction of a quantum simulator experiment using quantum gases in Spain. This experiment exploits mixtures of the three isotopes of potassium, which give access in an original ...
Dawid Lekowska, Anna Maria (Fecha de defensa: 2022-09-20)
(English) Quantum many-body physics poses a substantial computational challenge resulting from the exponential growth of the wave function complexity and many non-trivial correlations encoded in it. Studying many-body ...
Colangelo, Giorgio (Fecha de defensa: 2016-12-16)
This thesis describes quantum measurements of an ensemble of cold rubidium-87 atoms. We extend the covariance matrix formalism to spin-1 systems, including effects of decoherence, losses due to probing and atom number ...
Kutluer, Kutlu (Fecha de defensa: 2017-10-23)
A photonic quantum memory (QM) is a device that has the capability of storing a quantum state of light and retrieving back after a controlled time. It is an important element in quantum information science and is, among ...
Lucivero, Vito Giovanni (Fecha de defensa: 2016-10-14)
Nowadays there is a considerable progress in optical magnetometry and spin noise spectroscopy, which use magnetically-sensitive atomic ensembles and optical read-out, approaching the limits set by quantum mechanics. In ...
Raissi, Zahra (Fecha de defensa: 2020-10-08)
Studying entanglement is essential for our understanding of such diverse areas as high-energy physics, condensed matter physics, and quantum optics. Moreover, entanglement allows us to surpass classical physics and ...
Padrón Brito, María Auxiliadora (Fecha de defensa: 2021-04-08)
Photons are good candidates for carrying quantum information because they are very stable particles: they interact weakly with the medium and barely with each other. However, this has drawbacks when you want to process ...
Almeida, Jessica Oliveira de (Fecha de defensa: 2022-07-28)
Quantum optics experiments are currently the most advanced techniques to under- stand, verify and simulate quantum phenomena. However, to access all the perfor- mance available in quantum states of light, one needs to ...
