Solid-State Quantum Memory

Abstract

A solid-state quantum memory includes a vibrator supported in a displaceable (vibratable) manner on a substrate and a vibration exciter configured to excite the vibrator to vibrate. A rare-earth element is introduced into the vibrator and the introduced rare-earth element forms an electronic two-level system in the vibrator. The vibrator is supported on the substrate by a support. The substrate including a piezoelectric element formed from a piezoelectric material, as well as a first electrode and a second electrode formed by sandwiching the piezoelectric element, serves as the vibration exciter.
