Abstract: A customized low-noise signal read-out circuit, which is designed for the implementation of the integrated low power consumption quantum magnetometers based on nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond, is reported in this article. As the circuit has a 3.7 pA/Hz1/2 low-input noise which is superior to the latest studies, the integrated quantum diamond magnetometer can achieve […]
Abstract: Quantum sensing holds great promise for high-precision magnetic field measurements. However, its performance is significantly limited by noise. The investigation of active quantum error correction to address this noise led to the Hamiltonian-not-in-Lindblad-span (HNLS) condition. This states that the Heisenberg scaling is achievable if and only if the signal Hamiltonian is orthogonal to the […]
Abstract: This study presents the design, simulation, and experimental characterization of a superconducting transmon qubit circuit prototype for potential applications in dark matter detection experiments. We describe a planar circuit design featuring two noninteracting transmon qubits, one with fixed frequency and the other flux tunable. Finite-element simulations were employed to extract key Hamiltonian parameters and […]
Abstract: Single-photon detectors are essential for implementing optical quantum technologies, such as quantum key distribution, and for enhancing optical imaging systems such as lidar, while also playing a crucial role in studying the statistical properties of light. In this work, we show how the underlying photon statistics can be revealed by using a threshold detector, […]

Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) ensembles are viable magnetometers to be implemented on nanosatellites for monitoring geomagnetic fluctuations, which are credible precursors for predicting earthquakes at short notice. In this work, a Haar wavelet-based quantum sensing method is proposed to reconstruct the time-varying waveform of geomagnetic fluctuations in the very low frequency band. To collect different frequency components […]
Thin films with quantum defects are emerging as a potential platform for quantum applications. Quantum defects in some thin films arise due to structural imperfections, such as vacancies or impurities. These defects generate localized electronic states with unique optical and electronic properties. Crystal vacancies or defects that occur when atoms are missing from a crystal […]
In this article, we propose a machine-learning framework for parameter estimation of single-mode Gaussian quantum states. Under a Bayesian framework, our approach estimates parameters of suitable prior distributions from measured data. For phase-space displacement and squeezing parameter estimation, this is achieved by introducing expectation–maximization (EM)-based algorithms, while for phase parameter estimation, an empirical Bayes method […]
