The effectiveness of decoherence suppression schemes is explored using quantum bits (qubits) stored in Li np Rydberg states. Following laser excitation, pulsed electric fields coherently control the electronic spin-orbit coupling, facilitating qubit creation, manipulation, and measurement. Spin-orbit coupling creates an approximate decoherence-free subspace for extending qubit storage times. However, sequences of fast NOT operations are found to be substantially more effective for preserving coherence.

The emerging class of multi-spectral mosaic-array cameras combines opportunities of spectral data processing and full-motion video color display. We explore capabilities of such sensors and propose the novel demosaicking algorithm capable of enhancing resolution of equally sampled multi-spectral mosaic imagery. We present experimental results of the proposed processing using the imagery acquired with a nine-band short-wave infrared mosaic-array camera.
