Microwave Photodetection with Electro-Opto-Mechanical Systems
TL;DR: In this article, a model of microwave photodetector which is based on the use of an electro-opto-mechanical system was proposed, where single microwave photons can efficiently be converted into optical photons which are then measured by standard optics.
Classical benchmarking for microwave quantum illumination
Athena Karsa,Stefano Pirandola +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors outline the true classical benchmark for microwave QI using coherent states, providing new bounds on the error probability and closed formulae for the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), for both optimal (based on quantum relative entropy) and homodyne detection schemes.
Data postprocessing for the one-way heterodyne protocol under composable finite-size security
TL;DR: This work simulates the quantum communication process and postprocess the output data by applying parameter estimation, error correction, and privacy amplification to study the performance for practical implementations of the protocol and optimize the parameters connected to the steps above.

End-to-End Capacities of Hybrid Quantum Networks
TL;DR: This work introduces a class of modular quantum network architectures which provide a realistic and readily analysable framework for hybrid quantum networks, and elucidates key infrastructure demands for a future satellite-based global quantum internet, and for hybrid wired/wireless metropolitan quantum networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discriminating quantum field theories in non-inertial frames
TL;DR: In this article, the authors search for the optimal strategies which can best see the thermality of the Unruh effect and find that the usual strategy of counting particles in the vacuum can be improved, thereby enhancing the discrimination.
