text: Quantum entanglement is a key resource in currently developed quantum technologies.
Sharing this fragile property between superconducting microwave circuits and optical
or atomic systems would enable new functionalities, but this has been hindered
by an energy scale mismatch of >104 and the resulting mutually imposed loss and
noise. In this work, we created and verified entanglement between microwave and
optical fields in a millikelvin environment. Using an optically pulsed superconducting
electro-optical device, we show entanglement between propagating microwave and
optical fields in the continuous variable domain. This achievement not only paves
the way for entanglement between superconducting circuits and telecom wavelength
light, but also has wide-ranging implications for hybrid quantum networks in the
context of modularization, scaling, sensing, and cross-platform verification.

text: "About a 100 years ago, we discovered that our universe is inherently noisy,
that is, measuring any physical quantity with a precision beyond a certain point
is not possible because of an omnipresent inherent noise. We call this - the quantum
noise. Certain physical processes allow this quantum noise to get correlated in
conjugate physical variables. These quantum correlations can be used to go beyond
the potential of our inherently noisy universe and obtain a quantum advantage
over the classical applications. \r\n\r\nQuantum noise being inherent also means
that, at the fundamental level, the physical quantities are not well defined and
therefore, objects can stay in multiple states at the same time. For example,
the position of a particle not being well defined means that the particle is in
multiple positions at the same time. About 4 decades ago, we started exploring
the possibility of using objects which can be in multiple states at the same time
to increase the dimensionality in computation. Thus, the field of quantum computing
was born. We discovered that using quantum entanglement, a property closely related
to quantum correlations, can be used to speed up computation of certain problems,
such as factorisation of large numbers, faster than any known classical algorithm.
Thus began the pursuit to make quantum computers a reality. \r\n\r\nTill date,
we have explored quantum control over many physical systems including photons,
spins, atoms, ions and even simple circuits made up of superconducting material.
However, there persists one ubiquitous theme. The more readily a system interacts
with an external field or matter, the more easily we can control it. But this
also means that such a system can easily interact with a noisy environment and
quickly lose its coherence. Consequently, such systems like electron spins need
to be protected from the environment to ensure the longevity of their coherence.
Other systems like nuclear spins are naturally protected as they do not interact
easily with the environment. But, due to the same reason, it is harder to interact
with such systems. \r\n\r\nAfter decades of experimentation with various systems,
we are convinced that no one type of quantum system would be the best for all
the quantum applications. We would need hybrid systems which are all interconnected
- much like the current internet where all sorts of devices can all talk to each
other - but now for quantum devices. A quantum internet. \r\n\r\nOptical photons
are the best contenders to carry information for the quantum internet. They can
carry quantum information cheaply and without much loss - the same reasons which
has made them the backbone of our current internet. Following this direction,
many systems, like trapped ions, have already demonstrated successful quantum
links over a large distances using optical photons. However, some of the most
promising contenders for quantum computing which are based on microwave frequencies
have been left behind. This is because high energy optical photons can adversely
affect fragile low-energy microwave systems. \r\n\r\nIn this thesis, we present
substantial progress on this missing quantum link between microwave and optics
using electrooptical nonlinearities in lithium niobate. The nonlinearities are
enhanced by using resonant cavities for all the involved modes leading to observation
of strong direct coupling between optical and microwave frequencies. With this
strong coupling we are not only able to achieve almost 100\\% internal conversion
efficiency with low added noise, thus presenting a quantum-enabled transducer,
but also we are able to observe novel effects such as cooling of a microwave mode
using optics. The strong coupling regime also leads to direct observation of dynamical
backaction effect between microwave and optical frequencies which are studied
in detail here. Finally, we also report first observation of microwave-optics
entanglement in form of two-mode squeezed vacuum squeezed 0.7dB below vacuum level.
\r\nWith this new bridge between microwave and optics, the microwave-based quantum
technologies can finally be a part of a quantum network which is based on optical
photons - putting us one step closer to a future with quantum internet. "

text: Recent quantum technologies have established precise quantum control of various
microscopic systems using electromagnetic waves. Interfaces based on cryogenic
cavity electro-optic systems are particularly promising, due to the direct interaction
between microwave and optical fields in the quantum regime. Quantum optical control
of superconducting microwave circuits has been precluded so far due to the weak
electro-optical coupling as well as quasi-particles induced by the pump laser.
Here we report the coherent control of a superconducting microwave cavity using
laser pulses in a multimode electro-optical device at millikelvin temperature
with near-unity cooperativity. Both the stationary and instantaneous responses
of the microwave and optical modes comply with the coherent electro-optical interaction,
and reveal only minuscule amount of excess back-action with an unanticipated time
delay. Our demonstration enables wide ranges of applications beyond quantum transductions,
from squeezing and quantum non-demolition measurements of microwave fields, to
entanglement generation and hybrid quantum networks.

text: "About a 100 years ago, we discovered that our universe is inherently noisy,
that is, measuring any physical quantity with a precision beyond a certain point
is not possible because of an omnipresent inherent noise. We call this - the quantum
noise. Certain physical processes allow this quantum noise to get correlated in
conjugate physical variables. These quantum correlations can be used to go beyond
the potential of our inherently noisy universe and obtain a quantum advantage
over the classical applications. \r\n\r\nQuantum noise being inherent also means
that, at the fundamental level, the physical quantities are not well defined and
therefore, objects can stay in multiple states at the same time. For example,
the position of a particle not being well defined means that the particle is in
multiple positions at the same time. About 4 decades ago, we started exploring
the possibility of using objects which can be in multiple states at the same time
to increase the dimensionality in computation. Thus, the field of quantum computing
was born. We discovered that using quantum entanglement, a property closely related
to quantum correlations, can be used to speed up computation of certain problems,
such as factorisation of large numbers, faster than any known classical algorithm.
Thus began the pursuit to make quantum computers a reality. \r\n\r\nTill date,
we have explored quantum control over many physical systems including photons,
spins, atoms, ions and even simple circuits made up of superconducting material.
However, there persists one ubiquitous theme. The more readily a system interacts
with an external field or matter, the more easily we can control it. But this
also means that such a system can easily interact with a noisy environment and
quickly lose its coherence. Consequently, such systems like electron spins need
to be protected from the environment to ensure the longevity of their coherence.
Other systems like nuclear spins are naturally protected as they do not interact
easily with the environment. But, due to the same reason, it is harder to interact
with such systems. \r\n\r\nAfter decades of experimentation with various systems,
we are convinced that no one type of quantum system would be the best for all
the quantum applications. We would need hybrid systems which are all interconnected
- much like the current internet where all sorts of devices can all talk to each
other - but now for quantum devices. A quantum internet. \r\n\r\nOptical photons
are the best contenders to carry information for the quantum internet. They can
carry quantum information cheaply and without much loss - the same reasons which
has made them the backbone of our current internet. Following this direction,
many systems, like trapped ions, have already demonstrated successful quantum
links over a large distances using optical photons. However, some of the most
promising contenders for quantum computing which are based on microwave frequencies
have been left behind. This is because high energy optical photons can adversely
affect fragile low-energy microwave systems. \r\n\r\nIn this thesis, we present
substantial progress on this missing quantum link between microwave and optics
using electrooptical nonlinearities in lithium niobate. The nonlinearities are
enhanced by using resonant cavities for all the involved modes leading to observation
of strong direct coupling between optical and microwave frequencies. With this
strong coupling we are not only able to achieve almost 100\\% internal conversion
efficiency with low added noise, thus presenting a quantum-enabled transducer,
but also we are able to observe novel effects such as cooling of a microwave mode
using optics. The strong coupling regime also leads to direct observation of dynamical
backaction effect between microwave and optical frequencies which are studied
in detail here. Finally, we also report first observation of microwave-optics
entanglement in form of two-mode squeezed vacuum squeezed 0.7dB below vacuum level.
\r\nWith this new bridge between microwave and optics, the microwave-based quantum
technologies can finally be a part of a quantum network which is based on optical
photons - putting us one step closer to a future with quantum internet. "

text: Solid-state microwave systems offer strong interactions for fast quantum logic
and sensing but photons at telecom wavelength are the ideal choice for high-density
low-loss quantum interconnects. A general-purpose interface that can make use
of single photon effects requires < 1 input noise quanta, which has remained elusive
due to either low efficiency or pump induced heating. Here we demonstrate coherent
electro-optic modulation on nanosecond-timescales with only 0.16+0.02−0.01 microwave
input noise photons with a total bidirectional transduction efficiency of 8.7%
(or up to 15% with 0.41+0.02−0.02), as required for near-term heralded quantum
network protocols. The use of short and high-power optical pump pulses also enables
near-unity cooperativity of the electro-optic interaction leading to an internal
pure conversion efficiency of up to 99.5%. Together with the low mode occupancy
this provides evidence for electro-optic laser cooling and vacuum amplification
as predicted a decade ago.

text: "Microwave photonics lends the advantages of fiber optics to electronic sensing
and communication systems. In contrast to nonlinear optics, electro-optic devices
so far require classical modulation fields whose variance is dominated by electronic
or thermal noise rather than quantum fluctuations. Here we demonstrate bidirectional
single-sideband conversion of X band microwave to C band telecom light with a
microwave mode occupancy as low as 0.025 ± 0.005 and an added output noise of
less than or equal to 0.074 photons. This is facilitated by radiative cooling
and a triply resonant ultra-low-loss transducer operating at millikelvin temperatures.
The high bandwidth of 10.7 MHz and total (internal) photon conversion\r\nefficiency
of 0.03% (0.67%) combined with the extremely slow heating rate of 1.1 added output
noise photons per second for the highest available pump power of 1.48 mW puts
near-unity efficiency pulsed quantum transduction within reach. Together with
the non-Gaussian resources of superconducting qubits this might provide the practical
foundation to extend the range and scope of current quantum networks in analogy
to electrical repeaters in classical fiber optic communication."
