Spin-orbit coupling links a particle's velocity to its quantum mechanical spin, and is essential in numerous condensed matter phenomena, including topological insulators and Majorana fermions. In solid-state materials, spin-orbit coupling…

We consider the practical feasibility of using the direct, electric dipole-dipole interaction between co-trapped molecular ions for robust quantum logic without the need for static polarizing fields. The use of oscillating dipole moments,…

Molecular nanomagnets show clear signatures of coherent behavior and have a wide variety of effective low-energy spin Hamiltonians suitable for encoding qubits and implementing spin-based quantum information processing. At the nanoscale,…

We present a new method for coherent control of trapped ion qubits in separate interaction regions of a multi-zone trap by simultaneously applying an electric field and a spin-dependent gradient. Both the phase and amplitude of the…

Ultranarrow-linewidth atoms coupled to a lossy optical cavity mode synchronize, i.e. develop correlations, and exhibit steady-state superradiance when continuously repumped. This type of system displays rich collective physics and promises…

We propose a scheme to engineer an effective spin Hamiltonian starting from a system of electrons confined in micro-Penning traps. By means of appropriate sequences of electromagnetic pulses, alternated to periods of free evolution, we…

We develop the theory to describe the equilibrium ion positions and phonon modes for a trapped ion quantum simulator in an oblate Paul trap that creates two-dimensional Coulomb crystals in a triangular lattice. By coupling the internal…

We consider the quantum simulation of quadratic spin-phonon coupling in a crystal of trapped ions. The coupling is implemented using tightly focused optical tweezers on each ion that change the local trapping potential in a state-dependent…

We propose an efficient method to produce multi-particle entangled states of ions in an ion trap for which a wide range of interesting effects and applications have been suggested. Our preparation scheme exploits the collective vibrational…

Linear arrays of trapped and laser cooled atomic ions are a versatile platform for studying emergent phenomena in strongly-interacting many-body systems. Effective spins are encoded in long-lived electronic levels of each ion and made to…

Quantum simulation - the use of one quantum system to simulate a less controllable one - may provide an understanding of the many quantum systems which cannot be modeled using classical computers. Impressive progress on control and…

Artificial molecules containing just one or two electrons provide a powerful platform for studies of orbital and spin quantum dynamics in nanoscale devices. A well-known example of these dynamics is tunneling of electrons between two…

We analyze the spin dynamics of an individual magnetic atom (Mn) inserted in a II-VI semiconductor quantum dot under resonant optical excitation. In addition to standard optical pumping expected for a resonant excitation, we show that for…

We investigate the dynamics of ion crystals in zigzag configuration in transverse magnetic field gradients. A surface-electrode Paul trap is employed to trap $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions and features submerged wires to generate magnetic field…

A trapped-ion quantum tunneling rotor (QTR) is in a quantum superposition of two different Wigner crystal orientations. In a QTR system, quantum tunneling drives the coherent transition between the two different Wigner crystal orientations.…

The most typical ingredient of topologically protected quantum states are magnetic fluxes. In a system of spins, complex-valued interaction parameters give rise to a flux, if their phases do not add up to zero along a closed loop. Here we…

We consider strongly interacting systems of effective spins, subject to dissipative spin-flip processes associated with optical pumping. We predict the existence of novel magnetic phases in the steady-state of this system, which emerge due…

The electronic states of a parabolic quantum dot in a magnetic field are studied with the inclusion of the spin-orbit interaction. The analitycal formulae for the ground state energy of the interacting system are derived. The spin-orbit…

We theoretically investigate the possibility of creating phonon-mediated spin-spin interactions between neutral atoms trapped in optical tweezers. By laser coupling the atoms to Rydberg states, collective modes of motion appear. We show…

We present a new model for the study of spin-orbit coupling in interacting quasi-one-dimensional systems and solve it exactly to find the spectral properties of such systems. We show that the combination of spin-orbit coupling and…
