In this paper, we employ eight-level GHZ states as quantum channels to realize multi-hop quantum communication, and utilize the logical relationship between the measurements of each node to derive the unitary operation performed by the end node. The hierarchical simultaneous entanglement switching(HSES) method is adopted, resulting in a significant reduction in the consumption of classical information compared to multi-hop quantum teleportation(QT)based on general simultaneous entanglement switching(SES). In addition, the proposed protocol is simulated on the IBM Quantum Experiment platform(IBM QE). Then, the data obtained from the experiment are analyzed using quantum state tomography, which verifies the protocol's good fidelity and accuracy. Finally, by calculating fidelity, we analyze the impact of four different types of noise(phase-damping, amplitude-damping, phase-flip and bit-flip) in this protocol.展开更多

Although extensive research has established the relationship between the Rydberg state excitation(RSE) yields and the CPTC field parameters, such as field amplitude ratios and helicity of two components, the role of the relative phase(φ) in modulating RSE efficiency remains unclear. In this work, we theoretically investigate the φ dependence of RSE and ionization yields in the co-rotating and counter-rotating circularly polarized two-color(CPTC) few-cycle laser fields by a semiclassical model. We find that, in co-rotating CPTC fields, both RSE and ionization yields display pronounced oscillations as a function of φ and these oscillations are significantly suppressed in the counter-rotating configuration, particularly for ionization yields. Moreover, the ratio of RSE to ionization yields exhibits an out-of-phase oscillatory pattern between low-and high-intensity regimes. These results can be comprehended by the unique feature of φ dependence of CPTC few-cycle fields, based on our semiclassical analysis. Our results demonstrate that phase-controlled CPTC fields offer a versatile tool for steering ultrafast ionization and RSE dynamics of atoms and molecules.展开更多

文摘The fractional shortcut to adiabaticity(f-STA)for the production of quantum superposition states is proposed firstly via a three-level system with aΛ-type linkage pattern and a four-level system with a tripod structure.The fast and robust production of the coherent superposition states is studied by comparing the populations for the f-STA and the fractional stimulated Raman adiabatic passage(f-STIRAP).The states with equal proportions can be produced by fixing the controllable parameters of the driving pulses at the final moment of the whole process.The effects of the pulse intensity and the time delay of the pulses on the production process are discussed by monitoring the populations on all of the quantum states.In particular,the spontaneous emission arising from the intermediate state is investigated by the quantum master equation.The result reveals that the f-STA exhibits superior advantages over the f-STIRAP in producing the superposition states.

文摘The ultrafast excitation dynamics of atoms and molecules exposed to circularly polarized two-color(CPTC)laser fields constitute a fascinating topic in attosecond science. Although extensive research has established the relationship between the Rydberg state excitation(RSE) yields and the CPTC field parameters, such as field amplitude ratios and helicity of two components, the role of the relative phase(φ) in modulating RSE efficiency remains unclear. In this work, we theoretically investigate the φ dependence of RSE and ionization yields in the co-rotating and counter-rotating circularly polarized two-color(CPTC) few-cycle laser fields by a semiclassical model. We find that, in co-rotating CPTC fields, both RSE and ionization yields display pronounced oscillations as a function of φ and these oscillations are significantly suppressed in the counter-rotating configuration, particularly for ionization yields. Moreover, the ratio of RSE to ionization yields exhibits an out-of-phase oscillatory pattern between low-and high-intensity regimes. These results can be comprehended by the unique feature of φ dependence of CPTC few-cycle fields, based on our semiclassical analysis. Our results demonstrate that phase-controlled CPTC fields offer a versatile tool for steering ultrafast ionization and RSE dynamics of atoms and molecules.

文摘Higher-order topological insulators,which host topologically protected states at boundaries that are at least two dimensions lower than the bulk,are an emerging class of topological materials.They provide great opportunities for exploring novel topological phenomena and fascinating applications.Utilizing a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope,we construct breathing-kagome lattices with Fe adatoms on Ag(111)and investigate their electronic properties.We observe the higher-order topological boundary states in the topological phase but not in the trivial one,which is consistent with the theory.These states are found to be robust against the removal of bulk or edge adatoms.Further,we show the arbitrary positioning of these states either at corner,edge,or bulk sites by slightly modifying their neighbors.Our study not only demonstrates the formation and robustness of the electronic higher-order topological boundary states in real atomic systems but also provides a route for controlling their positions.

文摘The quantum geometric tensor(QGT)is a fundamental quantity for characterizing the geometric properties of quantum states and plays an essential role in elucidating various physical phenomena.The traditional QGT,defned only for pure states,has limited applicability in realistic scenarios where mixed states are common.To address this limitation,we generalize the defnition of the QGT to mixed states using the purifcation bundle and the covariant derivative.Notably,our proposed defnition reduces to the traditional QGT when mixed states approach pure states.In our framework,the real and imaginary parts of this generalized QGT correspond to the Bures metric and the mean gauge curvature,respectively,endowing it with a broad range of potential applications.Additionally,using our proposed mixed-state QGT,we derive the geodesic equation applicable to mixed states.This work establishes a unifed framework for the geometric analysis of both pure and mixed states,thereby deepening our understanding of the geometric properties of quantum states.

文摘Topological band theory has been studied for free fermions for decades,and one of the most profound physical results is the bulk-boundary correspondence.Recently a focus in topological physics is extending topological classification to mixed states.Here,we focus on Gaussian mixed states for which the modular Hamiltonians of the density matrix are quadratic free fermion models with U(1)symmetry and can be classified by topological invariants.The bulk-boundary correspondence is then manifested as stable gapless modes of the modular Hamiltonian and degenerate spectrum of the density matrix.In this article,we show that these gapless modes can be detected by the full counting statistics,mathematically described by a function introduced as F(θ).A divergent derivative atθ=πcan be used to probe the gapless modes in the modular Hamiltonian.Based on this,a topological indicator,whose quantization to unity senses topologically nontrivial mixed states,is introduced.We present the physical intuition of these results and also demonstrate these results with concrete models in both one-and two-dimensions.Our results pave the way for revealing the physical significance of topology in mixed states.

文摘This study investigates the volumetric behaviors of various soils during freeze-thaw(FT)cycles and subsequent one-dimensional(1D)compression from experimental and theoretical studies.Experimental studies were performed on saturated expansive soil specimens with varying compaction conditions and soil structures under different stress states.Experimental results demonstrate that the specimens expand during freezing and contract during thawing.All specimens converge to the same residual void ratio after seven FT cycles,irrespective of their different initial void ratio,stress state,and soil structure.The compression index of the expansive soil specimens increases with the initial void ratio,whereas their swelling index remains nearly constant.A model extending the disturbed state concept(DSC)is proposed to predict the 1D compression behaviors of FT-impacted soils.The model incorporates a parameter,b,to account for the impacts of FT cycles.Empirical equations have been developed to link the key model parameters(i.e.the normalized yield stress and parameter b)to the soil state parameter(i.e.the normalized void ratio)in order to simplify the prediction approach.The proposed model well predicts the results of the tested expansive soil.In addition,the model’s feasibility for other types of soils,including low-and high-plastic clays,and high-plastic organic soils,has been validated using published data from the literature.The proposed model is simple yet reliable for predicting the compression behaviors of soils subjected to FT cycles.

文摘Precisely estimating the state of health(SOH)of lithium-ion batteries is essential for battery management systems(BMS),as it plays a key role in ensuring the safe and reliable operation of battery systems.However,current SOH estimation methods often overlook the valuable temperature information that can effectively characterize battery aging during capacity degradation.Additionally,the Elman neural network,which is commonly employed for SOH estimation,exhibits several drawbacks,including slow training speed,a tendency to become trapped in local minima,and the initialization of weights and thresholds using pseudo-random numbers,leading to unstable model performance.To address these issues,this study addresses the challenge of precise and effective SOH detection by proposing a method for estimating the SOH of lithium-ion batteries based on differential thermal voltammetry(DTV)and an SSA-Elman neural network.Firstly,two health features(HFs)considering temperature factors and battery voltage are extracted fromthe differential thermal voltammetry curves and incremental capacity curves.Next,the Sparrow Search Algorithm(SSA)is employed to optimize the initial weights and thresholds of the Elman neural network,forming the SSA-Elman neural network model.To validate the performance,various neural networks,including the proposed SSA-Elman network,are tested using the Oxford battery aging dataset.The experimental results demonstrate that the method developed in this study achieves superior accuracy and robustness,with a mean absolute error(MAE)of less than 0.9%and a rootmean square error(RMSE)below 1.4%.

文摘In both Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)and modern medicine,they agree that the integrity and healthy structure of the vascular endothelium are essential for normal hemodynamics.Damage to the vascular endothelium can quickly activate the extrinsic coagulation pathway by triggering the tissue factor(TF)and lead to coagulation.This damage,along with a loss of anticoagulant properties through antithrombinⅢ(ATⅢ),TF pathway inhibitors,and the protein C system,can result in a hypercoagulable state and even thrombosis.Hypercoagulability is not only a common feature of many cancers but also an important factor promoting tumor development and metastasis,which corresponds to the TCM theory of“blood stasis leading to tumors.”The pharmacological effects of heparin and aspirin have similarities with TCM's“activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis”theory in improving blood circulation,treating related diseases,and their anti-inflammatory effects.
