We demonstrate an efficient and continuous microwave photon-to-electron converter with large quantum efficiency (83%) and low dark current. These unique properties are enabled by the use of a high kinetic …
In microwave quantum optics, dissipation usually corresponds to quantum jumps, where photons are lost one by one. Here we demonstrate a new approach to dissipation engineering. By coupling a high …
Rectification of an optical signal using an all-metallic electronic device is of fundamental and technological importance for nano-optics. Researchers probed experimentally the microscopic mechanism at the origin of the optical …
Determining the intrinsic lifetime of states inside the superconducting gap generated by magnetic impurities (YSR states) is crucial for a better understanding of their properties and applications in quantum engineering. …
A team of researchers from the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (LPS) has demonstrated that in all-metallic Josephson field effect transistors, the statistics of electron flow due to the gate …
February 2023 Congratulations to Pierre Février, Phd student in our group for his publication in Communications Physics about the Role of optical rectification in photon-assisted tunneling current. “Emission of light …
