The fate of entanglement of spins for two heavy constituents of a bound state moving in a strong laser field is analyzed within the semiclassical approach. The bound state motion as a whole is considered classically beyond the dipole approximation and taking into account the magnetic field effect by using the exact solution to the Newton equation. At the same time the evolution of constituent spins under the laser influence is studied quantum mechanically. The spin density matrix is determined as solution to the von Neumann equation with the effective Hamiltonian, describing spin-laser interaction along the bound state classical trajectory. Based on the solution, the dynamics of concurrence of spins is calculated for the maximally entangled Werner states as well as for an initially uncorrelated state.

Generating robust entanglement among solid-state spins is key for applications in quantum information processing and precision sensing. We show here a dissipative approach to generate such entanglement among the hyperfine coupled electron nuclear spins using the rapid optical decay of electronic excited states. The combined dark state interference effects of the optical and microwave driving fields in the presence of spontaneous emission from the short-lived excited state leads to a dissipative formation of an entangled steady state. We show that the dissipative entanglement is generated for any initial state conditions of the spins and is resilient to external field fluctuations. We analyze the scheme both for continuous and pulsed driving fields in the presence of realistic noise sources.
Nuclear spins of noble gases can maintain coherence for hours at ambient conditions owing to their extraordinary isolation by the enclosing, complete electronic shells. This isolation, however, impedes the ability to manipulate and control them by optical means or by physical coupling to other spin gases. Here we experimentally achieve strong coherent coupling between noble-gas spins and the optically-accessible spins of alkali-metal vapor. Stochastic spin-exchange collisions, underlying the coupling, accumulate to a coherent periodic exchange of spin excitations between the two gases. We obtain a coupling rate 10 times higher than the decay rate, observe the resultant avoided crossing in the spectral response of the spins, and demonstrate the external control over the coupling by magnetic fields. These results open a route for efficient and rapid interfacing with noble-gas spins for applications in quantum sensing and information.
We present an experiment where a single molecule strongly affects the amplitude and phase of a laser field emerging from a subwavelength aperture. We achieve a visibility of -6% in direct and +10% in cross-polarized detection schemes. Our analysis shows that a close to full extinction should be possible using near-field excitation.
Color centers in diamond micro and nano structures are under investigation for a plethora of applications. However, obtaining high quality color centers in small structures is challenging, and little is known about how properties such as spin population lifetimes change during the transition from bulk to micro and nano structures. In this manuscript, we studied various ways to prepare diamond samples containing silicon vacancy centers and measured how population lifetimes of orbital states change in pillars as we varied their dimensions from approximately 1 $mu$m to 120 nm. We also researched the influence of the properties of the diamond substrate and the implantation and annealing methods on the silicon vacancy inhomogeneous linewidth and orbital lifetime. Our measurements show that nominally identical diamond samples can display significantly distinct inhomogeneous broadening. We observed weak indications that restricted vibrational modes in small structures may extend population lifetimes. However, imperfections in the crystal lattice or surface damage caused by etching reduce population lifetimes, especially in the smallest structures.
We suggest a new type of nano-electromechanical resonator, the functionality of which is based on a magnetic field induced deflection of an appropriate cantilever that oscillates between nitrogen vacancy (NV) spins in daimond. Specifically, we consider a Si(100) cantilever coated with a thin magnetic Ni film. Magnetoelastic stress and magnetic-field induced torque are utilized to induce a controlled cantilever deflection. It is shown that, depending on the value of the system parameters, the induced asymmetry of the cantilever deflection substantially modifies the characteristics of the system. In particular, the coupling strength between the NV spins and the degree of entanglement can be controlled through magnetoelastic stress and magnetic-field induced torque effects. Our theoretical proposal can be implemented experimentally with the potential of increasing several times the coupling strength between the NV spins as compared to the maximal coupling strength reported before in P. Rabl, et al. Phys. Rev. B 79, 041302(R) (2009).
