• Abstract summary: We present a systematic approach to the optimisation of ion-cavity interfaces for quantum networking applications. We show that it is possible to separate the geometric aspects of the cooperativity from those associated with the atomic system and the mirror surfaces themselves. Although our approach to optimisation can be applied to most operating regimes, here we consider cavities suitable for typical ion trapping experiments.

• Abstract: In the design optimisation of ion-cavity interfaces for quantum networking applications, difficulties occur due to the many competing figures of merit and highly interdependent design constraints, many of which present `soft-limits', amenable to improvement at the cost of engineering time. In this work we present a systematic approach to this problem which offers a means to identify efficient and robust operating regimes, and to elucidate the trade-offs involved in the design process, allowing engineering efforts to be focused on the most sensitive and critical parameters. We show that in many relevant cases it is possible to approximately separate the geometric aspects of the cooperativity from those associated with the atomic system and the mirror surfaces themselves, greatly simplifying the optimisation procedure. Although our approach to optimisation can be applied to most operating regimes, here we consider cavities suitable for typical ion trapping experiments, and with substantial transverse misalignment of the mirrors. We find that cavities with mirror misalignments of many micrometres can still offer very high photon extraction efficiencies, offering an appealing route to the scalable production of ion-cavity interfaces for large scale quantum networks.

  Inverse design, where we seek to design input variables in order to optimize an underlying objective function, is an important problem. We show that by instead optimizing over the learned energy function captured by the diffusion model, we can avoid such adversarial examples. In an N-body interaction task and a challenging 2D multi-airfoil design task, we demonstrate that by composing the learned diffusion model at test time, our method allows us to design initial states and boundary shapes.
