A parity measurement on two qubits, each consisting of a single atom in a cavity, can be realized by measuring the phase shift of a probe beam, which interacts sequentially with the two qubits, but imperfections lead to decoherence within…
Quantum systems lose coherence upon interaction with the environment and tend towards classical states. Quantum coherence is known to exponentially decay in time so that macroscopic quantum superpositions are generally unsustainable. In…
Quantum dot-based spin qubits are resilient towards charge noise and are affected by magnetic noise only. However, environmental interaction leads to decoherence in these qubit systems. The external control parameters are directly related…
