Beukers, H.K.C. (author), Pasini, M. (author), Choi, Hyeongrak (author), Englund, Dirk (author), Hanson, R. (author), Borregaard, J. (author)

The generation of entanglement between distant quantum systems is at the core of quantum networking. In recent years, numerous theoretical protocols for remote-entanglement generation have been proposed, many of which have been experimentally realized. Here, we provide a modular theoretical framework to elucidate the general mechanisms of...

Distributed entanglement and teleportation on a quantum network

Hermans, S.L.N. (author), Pompili, M. (author), Baier, S. (author), Beukers, H.K.C. (author), Humphreys, P.C. (author), Schouten, R.N. (author), Vermeulen, R.F.L. (author), Tiggelman, M.J. (author), Dos Santos Martins, L. (author), Dirkse, B. (author), Borregaard, J. (author), Wehner, S.D.C. (author), Hanson, R. (author)

We report on the realization of a multi-node quantum network. Using the network, we have demonstrated three protocols; generation of a entangled state shared by all nodes, entanglement swapping and quantum teleportation between non-neighboring nodes.

Entangling remote qubits using the single-photon protocol: an in-depth theoretical and experimental study

Hermans, S.L.N. (author), Pompili, M. (author), Dos Santos Martins, L. (author), Rodriguez-Pardo Montblanch, A. (author), Beukers, H.K.C. (author), Baier, S. (author), Borregaard, J. (author), Hanson, R. (author)

The generation of entanglement between remote matter qubits has developed into a key capability for fundamental investigations as well as for emerging quantum technologies. In the single-photon, protocol entanglement is heralded by generation of qubit-photon entangled states and subsequent detection of a single photon behind a beam splitter....

Patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant for the treatment of hip dysplasia tested in an experimental animal pilot in canines

Willemsen, Koen (author), Tryfonidou, Marianna A. (author), Sakkers, Ralph J.B. (author), Castelein, René M. (author), Beukers, Martijn (author), Seevinck, Peter R. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), van der Wal, Bart C.H. (author), Meij, Björn P. (author)

The concept of a novel patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant should be evaluated in a relevant large animal model with hip dysplasia. Therefore, three dogs with radiographic bilateral hip dysplasia and a positive subluxation test underwent unilateral acetabular augmentation with a 3D-printed dog-specific titanium implant. The...

Qubit teleportation between non-neighbouring nodes in a quantum network

Hermans, S.L.N. (author), Pompili, M. (author), Beukers, H.K.C. (author), Baier, S. (author), Borregaard, J. (author), Hanson, R. (author)

Future quantum internet applications will derive their power from the ability to share quantum information across the network^1,2. Quantum teleportation allows for the reliable transfer of quantum information between distant nodes, even in the presence of highly lossy network connections³. Although many experimental...

The distribution of entangled states across the nodes of a future quantum internet will unlock fundamentally new technologies. Here, we report on the realization of a three-node entanglement-based quantum network. We combine remote quantum nodes based on diamond communication qubits into a scalable phase-stabilized architecture, supplemented...

Controlling supercurrents and their spatial distribution in ferromagnets

Lahabi, K. (author), Amundsen, Morten (author), Ouassou, Jabir Ali (author), Beukers, Ewout (author), Pleijster, Menno (author), Linder, Jacob (author), Alkemade, P.F.A. (author), Aarts, Jan (author)

Spin-triplet Cooper pairs induced in ferromagnets form the centrepiece of the emerging field of superconducting spintronics. Usually the focus is on the spin-polarization of the triplets, potentially enabling low-dissipation magnetization switching. However, the magnetic texture which provides the fundamental mechanism for generating triplets...

A split-cavity design for the incorporation of a DC bias in a 3D microwave cavity

Cohen, M.A. (author), Yuan, M. (author), de Jong, B.W.A. (author), Beukers, Ewout (author), Bosman, S.J. (author), Steele, G.A. (author)

We report on a technique for applying a DC bias in a 3D microwave cavity. We achieve this by isolating the two halves of the cavity with a dielectric and directly using them as DC electrodes. As a proof of concept, we embed a variable capacitance diode in the cavity and tune the resonant frequency with a DC voltage, demonstrating the...

Yan, C. (author), Bergsma, O. (author), Koussios, S. (author), Zu, L. (author), Beukers, A. (author)

The sandwich composites fuselages appear to be a promising choice for the future aircrafts because of their structural efficiency and functional integration advantages. However, the design of sandwich composites is more complex than other structures because of many involved variables. In this paper, the fuselage is designed as a sandwich...

Hulskamp, A.W. (author), Beukers, A. (author), Bersee, H.E.N. (author), Van Wingerden, J.W. (author), Barlas, T. (author)

Within wind energy research there is a drive towards the development of a “smart rotor”; a rotor of which the loading can be measured and controlled through the application of a sensor system, a control system and an aerodynamic device. Most promising solutions from an aerodynamic point of view are trailing edge flaps, either hinged or...
