• Abstract: With a microwave-regime cyclic three-state configuration, an enantiomer-selective state transfer~(ESST) is carried out through the two-path interference between a direct one-photon coupling and an effective two-photon coupling. The $\pi$-phase difference in the one-photon process between two enantiomers makes the interference constructive for one enantiomer but destructive for the other. Therefore only one enantiomer is excited into a higher rotational state while the other remains in the ground state. The scheme is of flexibility in the pulse waveforms and the time order of two paths. We simulate the scheme in a sample of cyclohexylmethanol~(C$_7$H$_{14}$O) molecules. Simulative results show the robust and high-fidelity ESST can be obtained when experimental concerns are considered. Finally, we propose to employ the finished ESST in implementing enantio-separation and determining enantiomeric excess.

  Two non-identical quantum emitters, when placed within a cavity and coherently excited at the two-photon resonance, can reach stationary states of nearly maximal entanglement. We show that this mechanism is merely one among a complex family of phenomena that can generate both stationary and metastable entanglement when driving the emitters at the two-photon resonance.

  We propose a dissipative method for preparation of a maximally entangled steady state of two trapped ions in the Lamb-Dicke limit. We obtain an effective coupling between two particles, which is independent of the phonon-number fluctuations. Our result shows that the CHSH inequality can be violated for a wide range of decoherence parameters, even at finite temperature.

  We study the properties of a system of two distant two-level emitters coupled to a one-dimensional Ohmic waveguide. We introduce non-Markovianity arising from delay-feedback effects in two distant emitters in the so-called ultrastrong coupling regime. In particular, we revisit the Fermi two-atom problem showing that, in the USC regime, initial correlations yield two different evolutions for symmetric and antisymmetric states.

  Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect can lead to a perfect suppression of two-particle coincidences between the output ports of a balanced beam splitter. In this work, we demonstrate experimentally that the two-particle coincidence statistics of two bosons can instead be seamlessly tuned to substantial enhancement. Our findings reveal a new approach to harnessing non-Hermitian settings for the manipulation of multi-particle quantum states.

  We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes. The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
