Zheng, Y. (author), Sharma, H. (author), Borregaard, J. (author)The generation of multiple entangled qubit pairs between distributed nodes is a prerequisite for a future quantum Internet. To achieve a practicable generation rate, standard protocols based on photonic qubits require multiple long-term quantum memories, which remains a significant experimental challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel...journal article 2022

Zheng, X. (author), Jiang, N. (author), Zheng, Huaili (author), Wu, Yuyang (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author)One framework type of high-silica zeolite only can effectively remove a limited range of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water. In order to extend the OMP removal range, different types of high-silica zeolites need to be combined in the adsorption process. In this study, Mordernite (MOR) and ZSM-5 (MFI) high-silica zeolite powders were mixed...journal article 2021

Li, Yan (author), Draycott, Samuel (author), Zheng, Yaokun (author), Lin, Zhiliang (author), Adcock, Thomas A.A. (author), van den Bremer, T.S. (author)Abrupt depth transitions (ADTs) have recently been identified as potential causes of 'rogue' ocean waves. When stationary and (close-to-) normally distributed waves travel into shallower water over an ADT, distinct spatially localized peaks in the probability of extreme waves occur. These peaks have been predicted numerically, observed...journal article 2021
