Mild-matter interplay reveals new paradigm of quantum info expertise

A analysis group led by Professor Jaedong Lee from the Division of Chemical Physics of DGIST has launched a novel quantum state and a pioneering mechanism for extracting and controlling quantum info utilizing exciton and Floquet states.

Collaborating with Professor Noejung Park from UNIST’s Division of Physics, the group has, for the primary time, demonstrated the formation and synthesis technique of exciton and Floquet states, which come up from light-matter interactions in two-dimensional semiconductors.

The examine, revealed in Nano Letters in October, captures quantum info in real-time because it unfolds by way of entanglement, providing precious insights into the exciton formation course of in these supplies, thereby advancing quantum info expertise.

Not like conventional three-dimensional solids, the place quantum coherence is difficult to take care of owing to thermal influences, two-dimensional semiconductors characteristic power ranges for excitons and conduction bands that stay distinct owing to weaker screening results, thus preserving coherence over prolonged intervals.

This distinction makes two-dimensional semiconductors promising for growing quantum info gadgets. But, till now, the coherence and decoherence mechanisms of electrons throughout exciton formation have been poorly understood.

By means of theoretical calculations utilizing time-resolved angular-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy on two-dimensional semiconductor supplies, Professor Lee’s group confirmed that exciton formation coincides with the creation of a Floquet state, producing a mixed new quantum state.

Moreover, they recognized the mechanism by which quantum entanglement happens inside this state and proposed a real-time methodology to extract, unfold, and management quantum info.

Professor Jaedong Lee, of DGIST’s Division of Chemical Physics, stated, “We’ve found a brand new quantum state, referred to as the exciton-Floquet synthesis state, and proposed a novel mechanism for quantum entanglement and quantum info extraction. That is anticipated to drive ahead quantum info expertise analysis in two-dimensional semiconductors.”

UNIST’s Professor Noejung Park added, “This analysis units a brand new paradigm for quantum info expertise, together with quantum computer systems, marking an essential milestone for its realization.”
