• Title: Quantum state preparation and readout with modulated electrons
• Authors: Jaime Abad-Arredondo, Antonio I. Fernández-Domínguez,
• Abstract summary: We study the capabilities of modulated electron wavefunctions for the preparation and readout of the quantum state of the quantum emitters (QEs) they interact with. First, we consider periodic electron combs, which do not produce QE-electron entanglement, preserving the purity of the QE while inducing Rabi-like dynamics in it. We extend our findings to realistic, non-ideally modulated electron wavepackets, showing that the phenomenology persists.

• Abstract: We provide a comprehensive study of the capabilities of modulated electron wavefunctions for the preparation and readout of the quantum state of the quantum emitters (QEs) they interact with. First, we consider perfectly periodic electron combs, which do not produce QE-electron entanglement, preserving the purity of the QE while inducing Rabi-like dynamics in it. We extend our findings to realistic, non-ideally modulated electron wavepackets, showing that the phenomenology persists, and exploring their use to prepare the emitter in a desired quantum state. Thus, we establish the balance that electron comb size, emitter radiative decay, and electron-emitter coupling strength must fulfil in order to implement our ideas in experimentally feasible platforms. Finally, moving into the limit of small electron combs, we reveal that these wavefunctions allow for quantum state tomography of their target, providing access not only to the populations, but also the coherences of the QE density matrix. We believe that our theoretical results showcase modulated free-electrons as very promising tools for quantum technologies based on light-matter coupling.

  We propose a quantum algorithm for the simulation of the time-evolution of molecular systems in the second quantization framework. We show how the entanglement between the electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom can persist over long times if electrons are not adiabatically following the nuclear displacement. The proposed quantum algorithm may become a valid candidate for the study of electron-nuclear quantum phenomena when sufficiently powerful quantum computers become available.
