Uncertainty relations in terms of entropies were initially proposed to deal with conceptual …

An efficient quantum light–matter interface with sub-second lifetime

SJ Yang, XJ Wang, XH Bao, JW Pan - Nature Photonics, 2016 - nature.com
Quantum repeaters hold promise for scalable long-distance quantum communication. The
basic building block is a quantum light–matter interface that generates non-classical …

Near-transform-limited single photons from an efficient solid-state quantum emitter

H Wang, ZC Duan, YH Li, S Chen, JP Li, YM He… - Physical Review Letters, 2016 - APS
By pulsed s-shell resonant excitation of a single quantum dot-micropillar system, we
generate long streams of 1000 near-transform-limited single photons with high mutual …

Entropic uncertainty relation in neutrino oscillations

D Wang, F Ming, XK Song, L Ye, JL Chen - The European Physical …, 2020 - Springer
Neutrino oscillation is deemed as an interesting physical phenomenon and shows the
nonclassical features made apparently by the Leggett–Garg inequality. The uncertainty …

Improved tripartite uncertainty relation with quantum memory

F Ming, D Wang, XG Fan, WN Shi, L Ye, JL Chen - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
The uncertainty principle is a striking and fundamental feature in quantum mechanics,
distinguishing it from classical mechanics. It offers an important lower bound to predict …

Tighter generalized entropic uncertainty relations in multipartite systems

L Wu, L Ye, D Wang - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
The uncertainty principle, which demonstrates the intrinsic uncertainty of nature from an
information-theory perspective, is at the heart of quantum information theory. In the realm of …

Heralded state preparation in a superconducting qubit

JE Johnson, C Macklin, DH Slichter, R Vijay… - Physical review …, 2012 - APS
We demonstrate high-fidelity, quantum nondemolition, single-shot readout of a
superconducting flux qubit in which the pointer state distributions can be resolved to below …

Detecting and preventing “multiple-account” cheating in massive open online courses

CG Northcutt, AD Ho, IL Chuang - Computers & Education, 2016 - Elsevier
We describe a cheating strategy enabled by the features of massive open online courses
(MOOCs) and detectable by virtue of the sophisticated data systems that MOOCs provide …

Experimental characterization of crosstalk errors with simultaneous gate set tomography

K Rudinger, CW Hogle, RK Naik, A Hashim, D Lobser… - PRX Quantum, 2021 - APS
Crosstalk is a leading source of failure in multiqubit quantum information processors. It can
arise from a wide range of disparate physical phenomena, and can introduce subtle …

Tightening the entropic uncertainty bound in the presence of quantum memory

F Adabi, S Salimi, S Haseli - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
The uncertainty principle is a fundamental principle in quantum physics. It implies that the
measurement outcomes of two incompatible observables cannot be predicted …
