Title: Quantum bit with a multi-terminal junction and loop with a phase shift
Inventor: OMELYANCHOUK ALEXANDER
IPC: H01L39/22
Filed: 2002-04-19
Abstract: A solid-state quantum computing qubit includes a multi-terminal junction coupled to a superconducting loop where the superconducting loop introduces a phase shift to the superconducting order parameter. The ground state of the supercurrent in the superconducting loop and multi-terminal junction is doub ly degenerate, with two supercurrent ground states having distinct magnetic moments. The quantum states of the supercurrents in the superconducting loop create qubits for quantum computing. The quantum states can be initialized b y applying transport currents to the external leads. Arbitrary single qubit operations may be performed by varying the transport current and/or external ly applied magnetic field. Read-out may be performed using direct measurement o f the magnetic moment of the qubit state, or alternatively, radio-frequency single electron transistor electrometers can be used as read-out devices whe n determining a result of the quantum computing. Further, qubits as described above can form arrays of qubits for performing controlled quantum computing calculations. In one example, an array of qubits can be utilized as a random number generator.

Abstract: A coast control device for a walkie/rider pallet truck (100) locks the position of a steering arm (116) of the truck (100) to prevent movement by a deadman mechanism (133). The disclosed locking device is a brake: an armature plate (138) mounted to the steering arm (116); and an electromagnet (140) coupled to a steering head (132) that is operated to activate coasting operation. The brake force can be overcome by an operator to manually apply the truck brake or to reposition the steering arm (116) to a new position where it is again locked. For controlling coasting operation, the brake is manually engaged by an actuator (115E) mounted adjacent to or on a grab bar (112) that is to be gripped by an operator riding on the truck (100). With the actuator so located, coasting operation can be conveniently engaged while the operator is walking beside the truck (100).
