James D. Franson, Bryan C. Jacobs
computers will utilize nonclassical logic operations to perform numerical calculations that are not feasible on conventional computers. The enhanced capabilities of quantum computers result partly...
J. D. FRANSON BASIC RESEARCH Recent Developments in Quantum Optics (2007)
The quantum theory of light predicts many interesting effects that may seem counterintuitive or even impossible from a classical point of view. Several effects of this kind have been investigated at...
SM-1 Core III Thermal Hydraulic Analysis, (2005)
Gignilliat,Henry C., Franson,James D., Terpolilli,Paul M.
A brief description of the SM-1 Nuclear Power Plant is given, followed by the safety system setpoints and operating limits of the reactor. The safety criteria which form the basis for safe operation...
Towards Linear Optical Quantum Computers (2004)
Dowling, Jonathan P., Franson, James D., Lee, Hwang, Milburn, Gerald J.
Scalable quantum computation with linear optics was considered to be impossible due to the lack of efficient two-qubit logic gates, despite its ease of implementation of one-qubit gates. Two-qubit...
Photon number resolving detection using time-multiplexing (2003)
Achilles, Daryl, Silberhorn, Christine, Sliwa, Cezary, Banaszek, Konrad, Walmsley, Ian A., Fitch, Michael J., ...
Detectors that can resolve photon number are needed in many quantum information technologies. In order to be useful in quantum information processing, such detectors should be simple, easy to use,...
Analysis of MH-1A Loss of Coolant Accident. (1998)
Gignilliat,Henry C., Johnson,George, Franson,James D., Terpolilli,Paul M.
Analyses of a postulated loss of coolant accident (LOCA) for the MH-1A Nuclear Power Plant are presented for large and intermediate size breaks in the primary system. Methods and assumptions...
Optical Approach to Quantum Computing (1998)
The primary goal of this project was to investigate the possible use of photonexchange interactions to implement quantum logic gates. The nonlinear phase shifts produced by photonexchange...
