Efficient Schemes for Reducing Imperfect Collective Decoherences
We propose schemes that are efficient when each pair of qubits undergoes some
imperfect collective decoherence with different baths. In the proposed scheme,
each pair of qubits is first encoded in a decoherence-free subspace composed of
two qubits. Leakage out of the encoding space generated by the imperfection is
reduced by the quantum Zeno effect. Phase errors in the encoded bits generated
by the imperfection are reduced by concatenation of the decoherence-free
subspace with either a three-qubit quantum error correcting code that corrects
only phase errors or a two-qubit quantum error detecting code that detects only
phase errors, connected with the quantum Zeno effect again.Comment: no correction, 3 pages, RevTe
Inverter-Based Low-Voltage CCII- Design and Its Filter Application
This paper presents a negative type second-generation current conveyor (CCII-). It is based on an inverter-based low-voltage error amplifier, and a negative current mirror. The CCII- could be operated in a very low supply voltage such as ±0.5V. The proposed CCII- has wide input voltage range (±0.24V), wide output voltage (±0.24V) and wide output current range (±24mA). The proposed CCII- has no on-chip capacitors, so it can be designed with standard CMOS digital processes. Moreover, the architecture of the proposed circuit without cascoded MOSFET transistors is easily designed and suitable for low-voltage operation. The proposed CCII- has been fabricated in TSMC 0.18μm CMOS processes and it occupies 1189.91 x 1178.43μm2 (include PADs). It can also be validated by low voltage CCII filters
Unified Analysis of Cosmological Perturbations in Generalized Gravity
In a class of generalized Einstein's gravity theories we derive the equations
and general asymptotic solutions describing the evolution of the perturbed
universe in unified forms. Our gravity theory considers general couplings
between the scalar field and the scalar curvature in the Lagrangian, thus
includes broad classes of generalized gravity theories resulting from recent
attempts for the unification. We analyze both the scalar-type mode and the
gravitational wave in analogous ways. For both modes the large scale evolutions
are characterized by the same conserved quantities which are valid in the
Einstein's gravity. This unified and simple treatment is possible due to our
proper choice of the gauges, or equivalently gauge invariant combinations.Comment: 4 pages, revtex, no figure
Low cost ground receiving systems for television signals from high powered communications satellites, volume 1
The fabrication and evaluation of 10 engineering prototype ground signal processing systems of three converter types are reported for use with satellite television. Target cost converters and cost sensitivity analysis are discussed along with the converter configurations
Electron-boson spectral density of LiFeAs obtained from optical data
We analyze existing optical data in the superconducting state of LiFeAs at 4 K, to recover its electron-boson spectral density. A maximum entropy
technique is employed to extract the spectral density from
the optical scattering rate. Care is taken to properly account for elastic
impurity scattering which can importantly affect the optics in an -wave
superconductor, but does not eliminate the boson structure. We find a robust
peak in centered about 8.0 meV or 5.3 (with 17.6 K). Its position in energy agrees well with a similar
structure seen in scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). There is also a peak
in the inelastic neutron scattering (INS) data at this same energy. This peak
is found to persist in the normal state at 23 K. There is evidence that
the superconducting gap is anisotropic as was also found in low temperature
angular resolved photoemission (ARPES) data.Comment: 17 pages, 6 figure
Negative energy and stability in scalar-tensor gravity
Linearized gravitational waves in Brans-Dicke and scalar-tensor theories
carry negative energy. A gauge-invariant analysis shows that the background
Minkowski space is stable at the classical level with respect to linear scalar
and tensor inhomogeneous perturbations.Comment: 9 pages, latex, to appear in Phys. Rev.
