We present an experiment regarding the CHSH inequality violation by single photons, thus concerning the failure of contextuality instead of locality in quantum physics. Single photons are generated by different sources (Laser, led and a halogen lamp). This experiment proves that it is possible to continuously pass from a quantum description of CHSH inequality violation, where violation...

Recently, single-photon states have been extensively employed as information carriers in several quantum information protocols. In this framework multiphoton interference plays a crucial role for the hardness of simulating bosons statistics, thus preventing a direct verification of multiphoton experiments. The latest results on Boson Sampling make available multiphoton states up to 20 photons....

Superconducting circuits are emerging as leading candidates for qubits as they offer fast gate times and high fidelity, and because of their simple design and fabrication. The current limit of superconducting circuits is their poor coherence time. This value, today on the order of hundreds of μs, should be improved to a few milliseconds for an efficient quantum processor.

The 3 MV Tandetron accelerator beamline at LABEC (Florence) has been upgraded to ion implantation experiments for fabrication of single-photon emitters. Silicon ions have been implanted in single- and poly-crystalline diamond matrices, in the 0-2.4 $\mu$m range of depths (0.2-11 MeV energy), down to the diffraction limit of lateral resolution, over a fluence range of $10^{7}-10^{15}$...

Nitrogen-vacancy (NV)-doped nanodiamonds (NDs) have applications in quantum-sensing of temperature and magnetic fields. We succeded in ns laser-synthesis,from graphite, of fluorescent NV-NDs w/o any post-process activation as opposed to current production techniques. Proof of NDs formation is given by SAED, SEM and Raman spectroscopy. NV centers are probed by spectrally-resolved Optically...

In recent years semiconductor nanowires (NWs) for quantum technologies have been raising great interest, due to the development of quantum devices and detectors. Among them InAs and InAs-GaSb core shell NWs are of special interest as they are shown to be suitable as sensors, with applications in domains as detectors of radiation [1,2] and of chemical species [3], and can readily be fabricated...

Atomic gravimeters are the most precise absolute gravity sensors. A main feature of atom interferometers is the ability to perform differential measurements, in gradiometric configuration, with almost perfect suppression of vibration noise. So far this has been achieved on baselines of the order of the meter. By combining optical metrology and atom optics methods, the OLAGS program will...

The standard model of quantum computation aims to approximate an arbitrary unitary transformation using a universal set of quantum gates. While this approach has the advantage to detach the development of algorithms from a specific hardware implementation, it might still be quite impractical in the NISQ technology era. The Quantum Coherent Device group at LLNL is developing a quantum computing...

The trend in particle physics experiment is to move the off-line analysis to real-time analysis and even to first-level trigger. The most powerful approach would be an hardware implement of machine learning techniques. Nowadays, this goal is limited by the computing power, power consumption and processing speed of traditional computing elements.

One popular way to realize quantum communication protocols is through energy-time entanglement (and its synchronized version, called time-bin), since it is robust to environmental disturbances during optical fiber propagation. However, most experiments based on this type of entanglement have an inherent flaw, called the post-selection loophole, which compromises security unless extra...
