We analyze the transfer of a quantum state between two resonators connected by a superconducting transmission line. Nearly perfect state-transfer efficiency can be achieved by using adjustable couplers and destructive interference to cancel the back-reflection into the transmission line at the receiving coupler. We show that the transfer protocol is robust to parameter variations affecting the ...

Phase diagrams of the micromaser system are mapped out in terms of the physical parameters at hand like the atom cavity transit time τ , the atom-photon frequency detuning ∆ω, the number of thermal photons nb and the probability a for a pump atom to be in its excited state. Critical fluctuations are studied in terms of correlation measurements on atoms having passed through the micromaser or on...

The concept of broken symmetry is used to study bifurcations of equilibria and dynamical instabilities in dynamic model of one-mode laser (nonresonant complex Lorenz model) on the basis of modified Hopf theory. It is shown that an invariant set of stationary points bifurcates into an invariant torus (doubly-periodic branching solution). Influence of the symmetry breaking on stability of branchi...

We discuss the role of light absorption by pairs of atoms (radiative collisions) in the context of a model for an atom laser. The model is applied to the case of VSCPT cooling of metastable triplet helium. We show that, because of radiative collisions, for positive detuning of the driving light fields from an atomic resonance the operating conditions for the atom laser can only be marginally me...

Although forbidden band effect in perfectly periodic phononic crystals (PC) is very attractive, random disordered (i.e. detuning) phenomenon inevitable engineering processing, thus exploring the of detuning on wave characteristics PC becomes a necessity. In this study, fundamental governing equations and boundary conditions are derived from principle virtual work. Wave localization factor one-d...

We discuss the sensitivity of a population of coupled oscillators to differences in their natural frequencies, i.e., to detuning. We argue that for three or more oscillators, one can get great sensitivity even if the coupling is strong. For N globally coupled phase oscillators we find there can be bifurcation to extreme sensitivity, where frequency locking can be destroyed by arbitrarily small ...

We have measured a previously unobserved systematic frequency shift in our cesium-fountain frequency standard, NIST-F1. This shift, predicted theoretically previously, mimics the well-known end-to-end phase shift in atomic beam standards when synchronous thermal transients are present. Detuning the microwave cavity several megahertz from resonance reduces this effect to the deltaf/f = 1o(-16) l...

We demonstrate that when the frequency of the external field differs from the lasing frequency of an autonomous spaser, the spaser exhibits stochastic oscillations at low field intensity. The plasmon oscillations lock to the frequency of the external field only when the field amplitude exceeds a threshold value. We find a region of values of the external field amplitude and the frequency detuni...
