  1. 1. Quantum state tomography of attosecond electron wavepackets

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Ron Demjaha; [2022]
    Keywords : quantum physics; quantum state tomography; atomic physics; quantum optics; density matrix; entanglement; state mixing; fano resonances; two-photon absorption; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, a broad theoretical description is done of a novel quantum state tomography protocol called KRAKEN. This protocol is meant for the determination of the density matrix of an electronic state created by absorption of XUV radiation in the vicinity of a Fano resonance. At first, a description of the KRAKEN protocol is provided. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards the control of photo-ionization with electron wave-packet interferences

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Andreas Stokkeland; [2020]
    Keywords : XUV attosecond pulses; photoelectron distribution; photoionization; phase shift; electron wave-packet interference; infrared field; IR-field; frequency components; Fourier transform; XUV photons; frequency domain; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work the photoelectric effect is explored through simulations of the phase shift that an IR-field can induce into an electron wave packet and the photoelectron distribution over frequency components that is produced in the photoionization of an atom with a attosecond pulses made of XUV photons. The IR-field is sent along two attosecond pulses made of XUV photons towards a 3D momentum spectrometer were there is a gas that can be photoionized and the photoelectrons can be measured. READ MORE

  3. 3. Quantum teleportation of single-electron states

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Edvin Olofsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Quantum teleportation; Quantum information; Quantum physics; Levitons; Floquet scattering theory; Mesoscopic physics; Nanophysics; Electron quantum optics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Quantum teleportation is a way to transfer a quantum state between two locations, by utilizing a shared entangled state, measurements and the ability to communicate measurement outcomes between the two locations. This thesis consists of a theoretical investigation of an experiment that would implement quantum teleportation using single-electron states in mesoscopic architectures. READ MORE

  4. 4. Wavefunction and spectral properties of single-particle emitters

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Elina Locane; [2013]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The past six years have seen the development of fast and accurate single-particle sources, with possible applications in metrology, nanoelectronics, quantum information processing, and single-electron quantum optics. These mesoscopic devices also enable us to gain more insight into the quantum mechanics of interacting fermions. READ MORE
