When assuming its usual position (i.e., when not drawn), there is no energy stored in the bow. Similarly, a drawn bow is able to store energy as the result of its position. This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy.

For example, the heavy ball of a demolition machine is storing energy when it is held at an elevated position. Press: Cambridge, 1997).An object can store energy as the result of its position.

Single-photon detectors for optical quantum information applications. Our scheme can serve as a building block for quantum networks connecting distant qubit modules as well as a microwave-photon-counting device for multiple-photon signals. Using the entanglement and the high-fidelity qubit readout, we demonstrate a QND detection of a single photon with the quantum efficiency of 0.84 and the photon survival probability of 0.87. Here, we implement a deterministic entangling gate between a superconducting qubit and an itinerant microwave photon reflected by a cavity containing the qubit. However, the counterpart for microwaves has been elusive despite the recent progress in microwave quantum optics using superconducting circuits 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. The long-sought QND detection of a flying photon was recently demonstrated in the optical domain using a single atom in a cavity 11, 12. This is in stark contrast to conventional photon detectors 2 that absorb a photon to trigger a ‘click’. Of particular interest is a quantum non-demolition (QND)-type detector, which projects an electromagnetic wave onto the photon-number basis 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Photon detectors are an elementary tool to measure electromagnetic waves at the quantum limit 1, 2 and are heavily demanded in the emerging quantum technologies such as communication 3, sensing 4 and computing 5.
