6 Femtosecond laser writing What about polarization encoding? Laser writing technique for devices able to transmit polarization qubits Femtosecond pulse tightly focused in a glass Combination of multiphoton absorption and avalanche ionization induces permanent and localized refractive index increase in transparent materials Waveguides fabricated in the bulk of the substrate by translating the sample at constant velocity perpendicularly to the laser beam, along the desired path. L. Sansoni et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, (2010)

7 Femtosecond laser writing 3-dimensional capabilities Rapid device prototyping: writing speed =4 cm/s Characteristics: Propagation of circular gaussian modes Circular waveguide transverse profile Low birefringence SUITABLE TO SUPPORT ANY POLARIZATION STATE

16 Discrete-time quantum walk Quantum walk: extension of the classical random walk: a walker on a lattice jumping between different sites with given probability Quantum particles evolve on a graph, with their evolution governed by their internal quantum coin (QC) states The walker in the position j is described by the quantum state j> The particle shifts up or down depending on the internal QC state U> or D> Evolution: step operator Experimental platforms Ion trap Fiber loops Coupled waveguides F. Zahringer, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, (2010) A. Schreiber et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, (2010) Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, (2011) Science 336, 55 (2012) A.

17 Why Quantum Walk Walk Energy transfer: within photosynthetic systems can display quantum effects such as delocalized excitonic transport which can be simulated by QW. Controlled transition from Classical to Quantum: QW can be employed for testing the transition from the quantum to the classical world by applying a controlled degree of decoherence. Light-harvesting molecule: is efficient at concentrating light at its center as quantum walk reaches the target vertex exponentially faster than a classical walk: because of destructive interference between the paths that point backward, toward the leaves. QW? Faster quantum Computation: It has been theoretically proven that Qws allow the speed-up of search algorithms
