Abstract
A device includes a volume bounded by electromagnetically conducting walls, an aperture in a bounding wall of the electromagnetically conducting walls, a plurality of quantum systems disposed within the volume and an electromagnetic field source coupled to the volume via the aperture.
Claims25
A device, comprising:
- a volume bounded by electromagnetically conducting walls;
- an aperture in a bounding wall of the electromagnetically conducting walls;
- a plurality of quantum systems disposed within the volume;
- and
- an electromagnetic field source coupled to the volume via the aperture,
- wherein each of the plurality of quantum systems is arranged at a location in the volume, which is relative to an electric field profile of a mode of interest from the electromagnetic filed source, the location determining coupling strength between each of the plurality of quantum systems to the cavity and to other quantum systems.
