text: There has been significant interest recently in using complex quantum systems
to create effective nonreciprocal dynamics. Proposals have been put forward for
the realization of artificial magnetic fields for photons and phonons; experimental
progress is fast making these proposals a reality. Much work has concentrated
on the use of such systems for controlling the flow of signals, e.g., to create
isolators or directional amplifiers for optical signals. In this Letter, we build
on this work but move in a different direction. We develop the theory of and discuss
a potential realization for the controllable flow of thermal noise in quantum
systems. We demonstrate theoretically that the unidirectional flow of thermal
noise is possible within quantum cascaded systems. Viewing an optomechanical platform
as a cascaded system we show here that one can ultimately control the direction
of the flow of thermal noise. By appropriately engineering the mechanical resonator,
which acts as an artificial reservoir, the flow of thermal noise can be constrained
to a desired direction, yielding a thermal rectifier. The proposed quantum thermal
noise rectifier could potentially be used to develop devices such as a thermal
modulator, a thermal router, and a thermal amplifier for nanoelectronic devices
and superconducting circuits.

text: Conventional ultra-high sensitivity detectors in the millimeter-wave range
are usually cooled as their own thermal noise at room temperature would mask the
weak received radiation. The need for cryogenic systems increases the cost and
complexity of the instruments, hindering the development of, among others, airborne
and space applications. In this work, the nonlinear parametric upconversion of
millimeter-wave radiation to the optical domain inside high-quality (Q) lithium
niobate whispering-gallery mode (WGM) resonators is proposed for ultra-low noise
detection. We experimentally demonstrate coherent upconversion of millimeter-wave
signals to a 1550 nm telecom carrier, with a photon conversion efficiency surpassing
the state-of-the-art by 2 orders of magnitude. Moreover, a theoretical model shows
that the thermal equilibrium of counterpropagating WGMs is broken by overcoupling
the millimeter-wave WGM, effectively cooling the upconverted mode and allowing
ultra-low noise detection. By theoretically estimating the sensitivity of a correlation
radiometer based on the presented scheme, it is found that room-temperature radiometers
with better sensitivity than state-of-the-art high-electron-mobility transistor
(HEMT)-based radiometers can be designed. This detection paradigm can be used
to develop room-temperature instrumentation for radio astronomy, earth observation,
planetary missions, and imaging systems.

interaction between the two atoms in the presence of a magnetic field and for
polarizations of the quantum field interacting with magnetic sublevels of the

text: Nonequilibrium phase transitions exist in damped-driven open quantum systems
when the continuous tuning of an external parameter leads to a transition between
two robust steady states. In second-order transitions this change is abrupt at
a critical point, whereas in first-order transitions the two phases can coexist
in a critical hysteresis domain. Here, we report the observation of a first-order
dissipative quantum phase transition in a driven circuit quantum electrodynamics
system. It takes place when the photon blockade of the driven cavity-atom system
is broken by increasing the drive power. The observed experimental signature is
a bimodal phase space distribution with varying weights controlled by the drive
strength. Our measurements show an improved stabilization of the classical attractors
up to the millisecond range when the size of the quantum system is increased from
one to three artificial atoms. The formation of such robust pointer states could
be used for new quantum measurement schemes or to investigate multiphoton phases
of finite-size, nonlinear, open quantum systems.

text: From microwave ovens to satellite television to the GPS and data services
on our mobile phones, microwave technology is everywhere today. But one technology
that has so far failed to prove its worth in this wavelength regime is quantum
communication that uses the states of single photons as information carriers.
This is because single microwave photons, as opposed to classical microwave signals,
are extremely vulnerable to noise from thermal excitations in the channels through
which they travel. Two new independent studies, one by Ze-Liang Xiang at Technische
Universität Wien (Vienna), Austria, and colleagues [1] and another by Benoît Vermersch
at the University of Innsbruck, also in Austria, and colleagues [2] now describe
a theoretical protocol for microwave quantum communication that is resilient to
thermal and other types of noise. Their approach could become a powerful technique

text: Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on Earth. Cellulose fibers, such
as the one extracted form cotton or woodpulp, have been used by humankind for
hundreds of years to make textiles and paper. Here we show how, by engineering
light-matter interaction, we can optimize light scattering using exclusively cellulose
nanocrystals. The produced material is sustainable, biocompatible, and when compared
to ordinary microfiber-based paper, it shows enhanced scattering strength (×4),
yielding a transport mean free path as low as 3.5 μm in the visible light range.
The experimental results are in a good agreement with the theoretical predictions
obtained with a diffusive model for light propagation.

text: We present the fabrication and characterization of an aluminum transmon qubit
on a silicon-on-insulator substrate. Key to the qubit fabrication is the use of
an anhydrous hydrofluoric vapor process which selectively removes the lossy silicon
oxide buried underneath the silicon device layer. For a 5.6 GHz qubit measured
dispersively by a 7.1 GHz resonator, we find T1 = 3.5 μs and T∗2 = 2.2 μs. This
process in principle permits the co-fabrication of silicon photonic and mechanical
elements, providing a route towards chip-scale integration of electro-opto-mechanical
transducers for quantum networking of superconducting microwave quantum circuits.
The additional processing steps are compatible with established fabrication techniques
for aluminum transmon qubits on silicon.

text: Nonreciprocal circuit elements form an integral part of modern measurement
and communication systems. Mathematically they require breaking of time-reversal
symmetry, typically achieved using magnetic materials and more recently using
the quantum Hall effect, parametric permittivity modulation or Josephson nonlinearities.
Here we demonstrate an on-chip magnetic-free circulator based on reservoir-engineered
electromechanic interactions. Directional circulation is achieved with controlled
phase-sensitive interference of six distinct electro-mechanical signal conversion
paths. The presented circulator is compact, its silicon-on-insulator platform
is compatible with both superconducting qubits and silicon photonics, and its
noise performance is close to the quantum limit. With a high dynamic range, a
tunable bandwidth of up to 30 MHz and an in situ reconfigurability as beam splitter
or wavelength converter, it could pave the way for superconducting qubit processors
with multiplexed on-chip signal processing and readout.

text: Microtubules provide the mechanical force required for chromosome separation
during mitosis. However, little is known about the dynamic (high-frequency) mechanical
properties of microtubules. Here, we theoretically propose to control the vibrations
of a doubly clamped microtubule by tip electrodes and to detect its motion via
the optomechanical coupling between the vibrational modes of the microtubule and
an optical cavity. In the presence of a red-detuned strong pump laser, this coupling
leads to optomechanical-induced transparency of an optical probe field, which
can be detected with state-of-the art technology. The center frequency and line
width of the transparency peak give the resonance frequency and damping rate of
the microtubule, respectively, while the height of the peak reveals information
about the microtubule-cavity field coupling. Our method opens the new possibilities
to gain information about the physical properties of microtubules, which will
enhance our capability to design physical cancer treatment protocols as alternatives
to chemotherapeutic drugs.

text: We study a polar molecule immersed in a superfluid environment, such as a
helium nanodroplet or a Bose–Einstein condensate, in the presence of a strong
electrostatic field. We show that coupling of the molecular pendular motion, induced
by the field, to the fluctuating bath leads to formation of pendulons—spherical
harmonic librators dressed by a field of many-particle excitations. We study the
behavior of the pendulon in a broad range of molecule–bath and molecule–field
interaction strengths, and reveal that its spectrum features a series of instabilities
which are absent in the field-free case of the angulon quasiparticle. Furthermore,
we show that an external field allows to fine-tune the positions of these instabilities
in the molecular rotational spectrum. This opens the door to detailed experimental
studies of redistribution of orbital angular momentum in many-particle systems.

text: Near-field imaging is a powerful tool to investigate the complex structure
of light at the nanoscale. Recent advances in near-field imaging have indicated
the possibility for the complete reconstruction of both electric and magnetic
components of the evanescent field. Here we study the electro-magnetic field structure
of surface plasmon polariton waves propagating along subwavelength gold nanowires
by performing phase- and polarization-resolved near-field microscopy in collection
mode. By applying the optical reciprocity theorem, we describe the signal collected
by the probe as an overlap integral of the nanowire's evanescent field and the
probe's response function. As a result, we find that the probe's sensitivity to
the magnetic field is approximately equal to its sensitivity to the electric field.
Through rigorous modeling of the nanowire mode as well as the aperture probe response
function, we obtain a good agreement between experimentally measured signals and
a numerical model. Our findings provide a better understanding of aperture-based
near-field imaging of the nanoscopic plasmonic and photonic structures and are
helpful for the interpretation of future near-field experiments.

text: Linking classical microwave electrical circuits to the optical telecommunication
band is at the core of modern communication. Future quantum information networks
will require coherent microwave-to-optical conversion to link electronic quantum
processors and memories via low-loss optical telecommunication networks. Efficient
conversion can be achieved with electro-optical modulators operating at the single
microwave photon level. In the standard electro-optic modulation scheme, this
is impossible because both up- and down-converted sidebands are necessarily present.
Here, we demonstrate true single-sideband up- or down-conversion in a triply resonant
whispering gallery mode resonator by explicitly addressing modes with asymmetric
free spectral range. Compared to previous experiments, we show a 3 orders of magnitude
improvement of the electro-optical conversion efficiency, reaching 0.1% photon
number conversion for a 10 GHz microwave tone at 0.42 mW of optical pump power.
The presented scheme is fully compatible with existing superconducting 3D circuit
quantum electrodynamics technology and can be used for nonclassical state conversion
and communication. Our conversion bandwidth is larger than 1 MHz and is not fundamentally
limited.

text: Fabrication processes involving anhydrous hydrofluoric vapor etching are developed
to create high-Q aluminum superconducting microwave resonators on free-standing
silicon membranes formed from a silicon-on-insulator wafer. Using this fabrication
process, a high-impedance 8.9-GHz coil resonator is coupled capacitively with
a large participation ratio to a 9.7-MHz micromechanical resonator. Two-tone microwave
spectroscopy and radiation pressure backaction are used to characterize the coupled
system in a dilution refrigerator down to temperatures of Tf=11 mK, yielding
a measured electromechanical vacuum coupling rate of g0/2π=24.6 Hz and a mechanical
resonator Q factor of Qm=1.7×107. Microwave backaction cooling of the mechanical
resonator is also studied, with a minimum phonon occupancy of nm≈16 phonons being
realized at an elevated fridge temperature of Tf=211 mK.

text: Radiation pressure has recently been used to effectively couple the quantum
motion of mechanical elements to the fields of optical or microwave light. Integration
of all three degrees of freedom—mechanical, optical and microwave—would enable
a quantum interconnect between microwave and optical quantum systems. We present
a platform based on silicon nitride nanomembranes for integrating superconducting
microwave circuits with planar acoustic and optical devices such as phononic and
photonic crystals. Using planar capacitors with vacuum gaps of 60 nm and spiral
inductor coils of micron pitch we realize microwave resonant circuits with large
electromechanical coupling to planar acoustic structures of nanoscale dimensions
and femtoFarad motional capacitance. Using this enhanced coupling, we demonstrate
microwave backaction cooling of the 4.48 MHz mechanical resonance of a nanobeam
to an occupancy as low as 0.32. These results indicate the viability of silicon
nitride nanomembranes as an all-in-one substrate for quantum electro-opto-mechanical
experiments.

text: 'We study coherent phonon oscillations and tunneling between two coupled nonlinear
nanomechanical resonators. We show that the coupling between two nanomechanical
resonators creates an effective phonon Josephson junction, which exhibits two
different dynamical behaviors: Josephson oscillation (phonon-Rabi oscillation)
and macroscopic self-trapping (phonon blockade). Self-trapping originates from
mechanical nonlinearities, meaning that when the nonlinearity exceeds its critical
value, the energy exchange between the two resonators is suppressed, and phonon
Josephson oscillations between them are completely blocked. An effective classical
Hamiltonian for the phonon Josephson junction is derived and its mean-field dynamics
is studied in phase space. Finally, we study the phonon-phonon coherence quantified
by the mean fringe visibility, and show that the interaction between the two resonators
may lead to the loss of coherence in the phononic junction.'

text: Solitons are localized waves formed by a balance of focusing and defocusing
effects. These nonlinear waves exist in diverse forms of matter yet exhibit similar
properties including stability, periodic recurrence and particle-like trajectories.
One important property is soliton fission, a process by which an energetic higher-order
soliton breaks apart due to dispersive or nonlinear perturbations. Here we demonstrate
through both experiment and theory that nonlinear photocarrier generation can
induce soliton fission. Using near-field measurements, we directly observe the
nonlinear spatial and temporal evolution of optical pulses in situ in a nanophotonic
semiconductor waveguide. We develop an analytic formalism describing the free-carrier
dispersion (FCD) perturbation and show the experiment exceeds the minimum threshold
by an order of magnitude. We confirm these observations with a numerical nonlinear
Schrödinger equation model. These results provide a fundamental explanation and
physical scaling of optical pulse evolution in free-carrier media and could enable
improved supercontinuum sources in gas based and integrated semiconductor waveguides.
