One-step preparation of cluster states in quantum dot molecules
Cluster states, a special type of highly entangled states, are a universal
resource for measurement-based quantum computation. Here, we propose an
efficient one-step generation scheme for cluster states in semiconductor
quantum dot molecules, where qubits are encoded on singlet and triplet state of
two coupled quantum dots. By applying a collective electrical field or
simultaneously adjusting interdot bias voltages of all double-dot molecule, we
get a switchable Ising-like interaction between any two adjacent quantum
molecule qubits. The initialization, the single qubit measurement, and the
experimental parameters are discussed, which shows the large cluster state
preparation and one-way quantum computation implementable in semiconductor
quantum dots with the present techniques.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Transmission of doughnut light through a bull's eye structure
We experimentally investigate the extraordinary optical transmission of
doughnut light through a bull's eye structure. Since the intensity is vanished
in the center of the beam, almost all the energy reaches the circular
corrugations (not on the hole), excite surface plasmons which propagate through
the hole and reradiate photons. The transmitted energy is about 57 times of the
input energy on the hole area. It is also interesting that the transmitted
light has a similar spatial shape with the input light although the diameter of
the hole is much smaller than the wavelength of light.Comment: 3 pages,4 figure
