Generation of polarization entanglement via the quantum Zeno effect

2022 · Optics Express

The quantum Zeno effect reveals that continuous observation of a quantum system can significantly alter its evolution. Here, we present a method for establishing polarization entanglement between two initially unentangled photons in coupled waveguides via …

IBM-HBCU Quantum Center: A model for industry-academic partnerships to\n advance the creation of a diverse, quantum aware workforce

2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

The IBM-HBCU Quantum Center is a first-of-a-kind collaboration between IBM\nand a consortium of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) that\nseeks to address the lack of Black representation and build a diverse and aware\nworkforce in quantum …

Characterizing the noise output by a fiber-based entangled photon source

2023

By simultaneously measuring individual and coincidence counts of two single photon detectors connected to a fiber-based entangled photon source and fitting the results with a theoretical model of the photon generation rates, we determine the …
