    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    The past few years have seen the rapid maturation of quantum information processors, particularly in the category of superconducting microwave circuits. With claims from leading companies that they will commercialize quantum processors in the next five years, we must wonder what quantum technologies should be developed in tandem to fully utilize these processors. For example, we are all...

  2. 2269. Graphene Lubrication and Wetting Transparency Evaluated through Nanoscale Friction (I)
    Dr Philip Egberts (University of Calgary)

    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Friction reducing, two-dimensional dry lubricants, such as graphene, boron nitride, and molybdenum disulphide, have been shown to have a number of interesting frictional characteristics, such as a dependence on the number of layers, an exceptional dependence on the surface adhesion properties of the underlying substrate, and environmental stability. We explored the frictional properties of...

  3. 2237. Autler-Townes quantum memory for broadband light storage and manipulation
    Lindsay LeBlanc (University of Alberta)

    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

    Using the well-known Autler-Townes effect, we have implemented a novel quantum memory in our laboratory in a medium of laser-cooled rubidium atoms. This new method relies on the absorption of the signal over a wide spectral region, making it inherently broadband and well-suited to quantum memory applications. This Autler-Townes splitting (ATS) protocol facilitates dynamical control of coherent...

  4. 2134. Optical fiber nanoprobe for the detection of chemicals (G)
    Mr Joshua Trevisanutto (Lakehead University)
    13/06/2018, 14:45
    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Oral (Graduate Student) / Orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful tool for detecting chemicals, including rhodamine 6G (R6G), at the molecular level. The authors have developed a plasmonic structure by depositing gold nanorods (GNRs, aspect ratio: 6.4) on a tapered optical fiber via optical tweezing. A 1064 nm laser was coupled to the un-tapered end of the tapered fiber for tweezing. The tweezing...
