• Abstract summary: We report on a solid-state hybrid system capable of coherent microwave quantum amplification and oscillation at X band via the masing process at room temperature. By incorporating external driving and active dissipation control into the hybrid system, we achieve efficient tuning of the maser emission characteristics at around 9.4 GHz. Our work highlights opportunities for optimizing emerging solid-state masers for quantum information processing and communication.

• Abstract: Quantum electronics operating in the microwave domain are burgeoning and becoming essential building blocks of quantum computers, sensors and communication devices. However, the field of microwave quantum electronics has long been dominated by the need for cryogenic conditions to maintain the delicate quantum characteristics. Here we report on a solid-state hybrid system, constituted by a photo-excited pentacene triplet spin ensemble coupled to a dielectric resonator, that is for the first time capable of both coherent microwave quantum amplification and oscillation at X band via the masing process at room temperature. By incorporating external driving and active dissipation control into the hybrid system, we achieve efficient tuning of the maser emission characteristics at around 9.4 GHz, which is key to optimizing the performance of the maser device. Our work not only pushes the boundaries of the operating frequency and functionality of the existing pentacene masers, but also demonstrate a universal route for controlling the masing process at room temperature, highlighting opportunities for optimizing emerging solid-state masers for quantum information processing and communication.

We report such a signal source driven by digital-like signals, generating pulsed microwave emission with well-controlled phase, intensity, and frequency directly at millikelvin temperatures.
