Ultrafast Sources of Entangled Photons for Quantum Information Processing
(2008-06-19)
Recent advances in quantum information processing (QIP) have enabled practical
applications of quantum mechanics in various fields such as cryptography, computation,
and metrology. Most of these applications use photons ...
Multiple-User Quantum Information Theory for Optical Communication Channels
(2008-05-20)
Research in the past decade has established capacity theorems for point-to-point
bosonic channels with additive thermal noise, under the presumption of a conjecture
on the minimum output von Neumann entropy. In the rst ...
Phase-Sensitive Light: Coherence Theory and Applications to Optical Imaging
(2008-05-14)
Spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) can produce pairs of entangled photons,
i.e., a stream of biphotons. SPDC has been utilized in a number of optical imaging applications,
such as optical coherence tomography, ...
A Comparison of Parallel Gaussian Elimination Solvers for the Computation of Electrochemical Battery Models on the Cell Processor
(2008-08-05)
The rising cost of fossil fuels, together with a push for more eco-friendly methods of transportation,
has increased interest in and demand for electrically powered or assisted vehicles. The majority of these
electric ...
Applications of Single-Photon Two-Qubit Quantum Logic to the Quantum Information Science
(2008-06-10)
In this thesis, I describe demonstration of various quantum information processing
tasks using single-photon two-qubit (SPTQ) quantum logic. As an initial state of
those tasks, I used various entangled photon pairs, and ...
