The diamond quantum revolution

Matthew Markham, Daniel J. Twitchen

Diamond is more than just a pretty gem – it has many attractive properties that stretch far beyond its aesthetic appeal. Matthew Markham and Daniel Twitchen explain how this special form of carbon now has many practical quantum applications too

Atomic Physics: Precise Measurements and Ultracold Matter

M. Inguscio, L. Fallani

Atomic Physics provides an expert guide to two spectacular new landscapes in physics: precision measurements, which have been revolutionized by the advent of the optical frequency comb, and atomic physics, which has been revolutionized by laser cooling. These advances are not incremental but transformative: they have generated a consilience between atomic and many-body physics, precipitated an explosion of scientific and technological applications, opened new areas of research, and attracted a brilliant generation of younger scientists. The research is advancing so rapidly, the barrage of applications is so dazzling, that students can be bewildered. For both students and experienced scientists, this book provides an invaluable description of basic principles, experimental methods, and scientific applications.

Novel Single Photon Emitters Based on Color Centers in Diamond

Igor Aharonovich, Stefania Castelletto, Steven Prawer +2 more

Single photon emitters are core components of quantum technologies. In this work new family of emitters based on chromium impurities in diamond is presented. The emitters can be fabricated by ion implantation of chromium into bulk diamond or incorporated during the growth of diamond nanocrystals. The remarkable photo‐physical properties of these emitters include room temperature operation, narrow photoluminescence (PL) in the near infra red and ultra bright, fully polarized photon emission with count rate of 3.2×106 counts/s. These photo physical properties make the Cr centers ideal for quantum information processing, metrology, and cellular bio markers applications.

New trends in quantum machine learning (a)

Lorenzo Buffoni, Filippo Caruso

Abstract Here we will give a perspective on new possible interplays between machine learning and quantum physics, including also practical cases and applications. We will explore the ways in which machine learning could benefit from new quantum technologies and algorithms to find new ways to speed up their computations by breakthroughs in physical hardware, as well as to improve existing models or devise new learning schemes in the quantum domain. Moreover, there are lots of experiments in quantum physics that do generate incredible amounts of data and machine learning would be a great tool to analyze those and make predictions, or even control the experiment itself. On top of that, data visualization techniques and other schemes borrowed from machine learning can be of great use to theoreticians to have better intuition on the structure of complex manifolds or to make predictions on theoretical models. This new research field, named as quantum machine learning, is very rapidly growing since it is expected to provide huge advantages over its classical counterpart and deeper investigations are timely needed since they can be already tested on the already commercially available quantum machines.
