Under this configuration, the tunneling of the electron through the InAs/GaAs interface determines entirely the exciton ionization and hardly depends on the particular GaAsSb layer thickness (only through small variations of the electron energy due to the strain field). Thus, bo ...

BLIND QUANTUM COMPUTATION 1. Introduction and Background

Although the Quantum Interactive Proof model demonstrated the capabilities of universal blind quantum computation, there wasn’t a clear transition between that model and an actual physical system. This perspective arose from an implementation using Measurement-Based Quantum Computation (MBQC).[BFK09 ...
