Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We demonstrated quantum state control of collective spin excitations in a ferromagnetic insulator. We coupled coherently magnon excitation in a millemeter-scale magnet (a sphere of single-crystal yttrium ion garnet) with a superconducting qubit via a microwave cavity mode. It enabled us to control and measure the quantum state in the single-magnon level. The results establish a new research field dubbed "quantum magnonics" which bridges the long-lifetime spin excitations in ferromagnetic insulators frequently used in the field of spintronics with quantum state engineering as well as quantum information science.
