Abstract: Systems and techniques that facilitate mitigation of baseband pulse distortion via radiofrequency-to-baseband conversion are provided. In various embodiments, a system can comprise a qubit. In various aspects, the system can further comprise a signal generator that can produce a radiofrequency signal. In various instances, the system can further comprise a signal converter coupled between the qubit and the signal generator. In various cases, the signal converter can convert the radiofrequency signal into a baseband signal. In various aspects, such radiofrequency-to-baseband conversion can reduce a dispersion-induced distortion associated with driving the qubit.

Abstract: Furniture spring systems are configured to provide support for different sized modular seating systems and/or modular bed systems. Slats extend between opposing frame or rail members to provide support to the seating or bed system. The slats have a catch disposed at a first or second end. In the seating and/or bed frame systems, the catch engages a retention member to retain the slat to the frame or rail. Adjustable bed frame systems employing such slats comprise modular bed frames and adjustable head boards and foot boards. Bed frames employing the slats and headboards/footboards thereof adjust in length or width in a variety of different manners. Adjustable bed frames adjust through the use of telescoping members, filler blocks and/or elongate end blocks that have different sizes from the standard uniform elongate support blocks employed in a bed frame.
