Rare-earth doped crystals have long coherence times and the potential to provide quantum interfaces between microwave and optical photons. Such applications benefit from a high cooperativity between the spin ensemble and a microwave cavity…

The magnetic properties of Na2CuP2O7 were investigated by means of 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity measurements. We report the 31P NMR shift, the spin-lattice 1/T1, and spin-spin 1/T2…

Understanding the limits to the spin-coherence of the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is vital to realizing the full potential of this quantum system. We show that relaxation on the $|m_{s}=-1\rangle \leftrightarrow…

The sensing capability of a single optically bright electronic spin in diamond can be enhanced by making use of proximal dark nuclei as ancillary spins. Such systems, so far only realized in bulk diamond, provide orders of magnitude higher…

We present an experimental study of nanowire transmons at zero and applied in-plane magnetic field. With Josephson non-linearities provided by the nanowires, our qubits operate at higher magnetic fields than standard transmons. Nanowire…

A free-falling nanodiamond containing a nitrogen vacancy centre in a spin superposition should experience a superposition of forces in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. We propose a practical design that brings the internal temperature of…

We study the dynamics of inorganic antiferroelectric nanoclusters formed during an order-disorder transition and demonstrate the coexistence of the two phases in a region of 2-3 K around the transition temperature TN~215 K. Single crystals…

We report coherent spin manipulation on Cr$^{5+}$ (\emph{S} = 1/2, \emph{I} = 0) doped K$_3$NbO$_8$, which constitutes a dilute two-level model relevant for use as a spin qubit. Rabi oscillations are observed for the first time in a spin…

Developing fault-tolerant quantum processors with error correction demands large arrays of physical qubits whose key performance metrics (coherence times, control fidelities) must remain within specifications over both short and long…

We probe the relaxation dynamics of the full three-level spin system of near-surface nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to define a $T_{1}$ relaxation time that helps resolve the $T_{2} \leq 2T_{1}$ coherence limit of the NV's subset…

We perform pulsed optically detected electron spin resonance to measure the DC magnetic field sensitivity and electronic spin coherence time T_2 of an ensemble of near-surface, high-density nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers engineered to have a…

We report vibrating coil magnetometry of the spin ice system Ho2Ti2O7 down to ~0.04 K for magnetic fields up to 5 T applied parallel to the [111] axis. History dependent behavior emerges below T*_0 ~ 0.6 K near zero magnetic field, in…

Proposals for systems embodying condensed matter spin qubits cover a very wide range of length scales, from atomic defects in semiconductors all the way to micron-sized lithographically-defined structures. Intermediate scale molecular…

The coherence of superconducting transmon qubits is often disrupted by fluctuations in the energy relaxation time (T1), limiting their performance for quantum computing. While background magnetic fields can be harmful to superconducting…

We investigate coherent quantum control of a nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond with microwave fields generated from a nanoscale magnet that is proximal to the NV center. Our results show remarkable coherent control with high contrast…

We study zero temperature phase transitions in two classes of random quantum systems -the $q$-state quantum Potts and clock models. For models with purely ferromagnetic interactions in one dimension, we show that for strong randomness there…

A model cluster, with a resonant electron spin surrounded with identical nuclear spins occupying the sites of a cubic lattice, and with dipolar coupling between the spins, is used for a theoretical investigation of the transient nutations…

Herein we develop a simple first-principles methodology to determine the modulation that vibrations exert on spin energy levels, a key for the rational design of high-temperature molecular spin qubits and single-molecule magnets. This…

In NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) quantum computation, the selective control of multiple homonuclear spins is usually slow because their resonance frequencies are very close to each other. To quickly implement controls against decoherence…

Current state-of-the-art superconducting microwave qubits are cooled to extremely low temperatures to avoid sources of decoherence. Higher qubit operating temperatures would significantly increase the cooling power available, which is…
