We implement superconducting YBCO planar resonators with two fundamental modes for circuit quantum electrodynamics experiments. We first demonstrate good tunability in the resonant microwave frequencies and in their interplay as it emerges from the dependence of the transmission spectra on the device geometry. We then investigate the magnetic coupling of the resonant modes with bulk samples of DPPH organic radical spins. The transmission spectroscopies performed at low temperature show that the coherent spin-photon coupling regime with the spin ensembles can be achieved by each of the resonator modes. The analysis of the results within the framework of the Input-Output formalism and by means of entropic measures demonstrates coherent mixing of the degrees of freedom corresponding to two remote spin ensembles and, with a suitable choice of the geometry, the approaching of a regime with spin-induced mixing of the two photon modes.

Electron spins hold great promise for quantum computation due to their long coherence times. An approach to realize interactions between distant spin-qubits is to use photons as carriers of quantum information. We demonstrate strong coupling between single microwave photons in a NbTiN high impedance cavity and a three-electron spin-qubit in a GaAs triple quantum dot. We resolve the vacuum Rabi mode splitting with a coupling strength of $g/2pisimeq31$ MHz and a qubit decoherence of $gamma_2/2pisimeq 20$ MHz. We can tune the decoherence electrostatically and obtain a minimal $gamma_2/2pisimeq 10$ MHz for $g/2pisimeq 23$ MHz. The dependence of the qubit-photon coupling strength on the tunable electric dipole moment of the qubit is measured directly using the ac Stark effect. Our demonstration of strong spin-photon interaction is an important step towards coherent long-distance coupling of spin-qubits.
Recent experiments on strongly coupled microwave and ferromagnetic resonance modes have focused on large volume bulk crystals such as yttrium iron garnet, typically of millimeter-scale dimensions. We extend these experiments to lower volumes of magnetic material by exploiting low-impedance lumped-element microwave resonators. The low impedance equates to a smaller magnetic mode volume, which allows us to couple to a smaller number of spins in the ferromagnet. Compared to previous experiments, we reduce the number of participating spins by two orders of magnitude, while maintaining the strength of the coupling rate. Strongly coupled devices with small volumes of magnetic material may allow the use of spin orbit torques, which require high current densities incompatible with existing structures.
Electron spins and photons are complementary quantum-mechanical objects that can be used to carry, manipulate and transform quantum information. To combine these resources, it is desirable to achieve the coherent coupling of a single spin to photons stored in a superconducting resonator. Using a circuit design based on a nanoscale spin-valve, we coherently hybridize the individual spin and charge states of a double quantum dot while preserving spin coherence. This scheme allows us to achieve spin-photon coupling up to the MHz range at the single spin level. The cooperativity is found to reach 2.3, and the spin coherence time is about 60ns. We thereby demonstrate a mesoscopic device suitable for non-destructive spin read-out and distant spin coupling.
Graphene is an attractive material for nanomechanical devices because it allows for exceptional properties, such as high frequencies and quality factors, and low mass. An outstanding challenge, however, has been to obtain large coupling between the motion and external systems for efficient readout and manipulation. Here, we report on a novel approach, in which we capacitively couple a high-Q graphene mechanical resonator ($Q sim 10^5$) to a superconducting microwave cavity. The initial devices exhibit a large single-photon coupling of $sim 10$ Hz. Remarkably, we can electrostatically change the graphene equilibrium position and thereby tune the single photon coupling, the mechanical resonance frequency and the sign and magnitude of the observed Duffing nonlinearity. The strong tunability opens up new possibilities, such as the tuning of the optomechanical coupling strength on a time scale faster than the inverse of the cavity linewidth. With realistic improvements, it should be possible to enter the regime of quantum optomechanics.
We demonstrate that yttrium iron garnet microspheres support optical whispering gallery modes similar to those in non-magnetic dielectric materials. The direction of the ferromagnetic moment tunes both the resonant frequency via the Voigt effect as well as the degree of polarization rotation via the Faraday effect. An understanding of the magneto-optical coupling in whispering gallery modes, where the propagation direction rotates with respect to the magnetization, is fundamental to the emerging field of cavity optomagnonics.
