We introduce a method for breaking Lorentz reciprocity based upon the non-commutation of frequency conversion and delay. The method requires no magnetic materials or resonant physics, allowing for the design of scalable and broadband non-reciprocal circuits. With this approach, two types of gyrators --- universal building blocks for linear, non-reciprocal circuits --- are constructed. Using one of these gyrators, we create a circulator with > 15 dB of isolation across the 5 -- 9 GHz band. Our designs may be readily extended to any platform with suitable frequency conversion elements, including semiconducting devices for telecommunication or an on-chip superconducting implementation for quantum information processing.

Space-time modulated metamaterials support extraordinary rich applications, such as parametric amplification, frequency conversion and non-reciprocal transmission. However, experimental realization of space-time modulation is highly non-trivial, hind
ering many interesting physics that are theoretically predicted to be experimentally demonstrated. Here, based on the proposed virtualized metamaterials with software-defined impulse response, we experimentally realize non-Hermitian space-time varying metamaterials for efficient and asymmetric frequency conversion by allowing material gain and loss to be tailor-made and balanced in the time domain. In the application of frequency conversion, the combination of space-time varying capability and non-Hermiticity allows us to diminish the main band through gain-loss balance and to increase the efficiency of side band conversion at the same time. In addition, our approach of software-defined metamaterials is flexible to realize the analogy of quantum interference in an acoustic system with design capability. Applying an additional modulation phase delay between different atoms allows to control such interference to get asymmetric amplification in frequency conversion.
The Casimir force and thermal Casimir force originating from quantum electromagnetic fluctuations at zero and non-zero temperatures, respectively, are significant in nano- and microscale systems and are well-understood. Less understood, however, are
the Casimir and thermal Casimir forces in systems breaking Lorentz reciprocity. In this work, we derive a formalism for thermal Casimir forces between an arbitrary number of spheres based on fluctuational electrodynamics and scattering theory without the assumption of Lorentz reciprocity. We study the total Casimir force in systems of two and three Weyl semimetal spheres with time-reversal symmetry breaking for different orientations of the momentum-space separation of Weyl nodes in both thermal equilibrium and nonequilibrium. In thermal nonequilibrium, we show that a net thermal Casimir force exists not only along the center-to-center displacements of the spheres, but also in the transverse direction to it due to thermal emission with non-zero angular momentum. Different symmetries of the system drive a variety of dynamics such as global rotations, self-propulsion, and spinning of the spheres. We also show that the Casimir energy in thermal equilibrium depends on the orientations of the Weyl node directions in the spheres and that the lateral Casimir force will act between the spheres even in thermal equilibrium to relax the system into the minimum energy state without transferring net energy and momentum to the environment. The developed framework opens a way for investigating many-body dynamics by Casimir and thermal Casimir forces among arbitrary number of spheres with arbitrary dielectric function tensors in both thermal equilibrium and nonequilibrium.
We propose a new method for frequency conversion of photons which is both versatile and deterministic. We show that a system with two resonators ultrastrongly coupled to a single qubit can be used to realize both single- and multiphoton frequency-con
version processes. The conversion can be exquisitely controlled by tuning the qubit frequency to bring the desired frequency-conversion transitions on or off resonance. Considering recent experimental advances in ultrastrong coupling for circuit QED and other systems, we believe that our scheme can be implemented using available technology.
High fidelity single-shot readout of qubits is a crucial component for fault-tolerant quantum computing and scalable quantum networks. In recent years, the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has risen as a leading platform for the above applicat
ions. The current single-shot readout of the NV electron spin relies on resonance fluorescence method at cryogenic temperature. However, the the spin-flip process interrupts the optical cycling transition, therefore, limits the readout fidelity. Here, we introduce a spin-to-charge conversion method assisted by near-infrared (NIR) light to suppress the spin-flip error. This method leverages high spin-selectivity of cryogenic resonance excitation and high flexibility of photonionization. We achieve an overall fidelity $>$ 95% for the single-shot readout of an NV center electron spin in the presence of high strain and fast spin-flip process. With further improvements, this technique has the potential to achieve spin readout fidelity exceeding the fault-tolerant threshold, and may also find applications on integrated optoelectronic devices.
In order for surface scattering models to be accurate they must necessarily satisfy energy conservation and reciprocity principles. Roughness scattering models based on Kirchoffs approximation or perturbation theory do not satisfy these criteria in a
ll frequency ranges. Here we present a surface scattering model based on analysis of scattering from a layer of particles on top of a substrate in the dipole approximation which satisfies both energy conservation and reciprocity and is thus accurate in all frequency ranges. The model takes into account the absorption in the substrate induced by the particles but does not take into account the near-field interactions between the particles.
