Floquet modulation has been widely used in optical lattices for coherent control of quantum gases, in particular for synthesizing artificial gauge fields and simulating topological matters. However, such modulation induces heating which can…

A classical thermometer typically works by exchanging energy with the system being measured until it comes to equilibrium, at which point the readout is related to the final energy state of the thermometer. A recent paper noted that…
Superconducting fluxonium qubits show a highly tunable energy-level structure, with transition frequencies spanning from a few MHz to few GHz. This range is well-aligned to the operational frequencies of highly coherent micro- and…
