Control System for Optical Qubits in Programmable Atomic Arrays
Abstract
The goal of this proposal is to build up the technical capabilities to leverage highly coherent optical clock transitions in programmable optical tweezer of strontium (Sr) atoms for relevant applications in quantum sensing, quantum simulation and quantum computing. We will implement hardware that will allow us to demonstrate significant performance improvements in atomic tweezer arrays. Currently, we are experiencing a revolution in quantum science- While quantum research in the last century has mostly focused on the observation of quantum phenomena, rapid advances in a broad suite of research tools are allowing us today to control and utilize quantum systems. This new level of control allows us to exploit the characteristic features- superposition and entanglement. We expect that this paradigm shift in how we interact with nature will give rise to novel quantum technologies.
