The breakdown of superconductivity is described as a reduction in the amplitude of the order parameter or a breakdown in phase coherence of Cooper pairs. This Review Article highlights recent results that show both mechanisms may be at play simultaneously.
Hybrid quantum systems combine heterogeneous physical systems for the implementation of new functionalities at the quantum level. This article reviews recent research on the creation of hybrid quantum systems within the circuit quantum electrodynamics framework.
The introduction of concepts from cavity quantum electrodynamics to superconducting circuits yielded circuit quantum electrodynamics, a platform eminently suitable to quantum information processing and for the exploration of novel regimes in quantum optics.
This Review Article outlines the techniques necessary for the manipulation of neutral atoms and making use of their interactions, when excited to Rydberg states, to achieve the goal of quantum simulation of many-body physics.
