Fast universal two-qubit gate for neutral fermionic atoms in optical tweezers

Jonathan Nemirovsky, Yoav Sagi

An array of ultracold neutral atoms held in optical micro-traps is a promising platform for quantum computation. One of the major bottlenecks of this platform is the weak coupling…

Fast design and scaling of multi-qubit gates in large-scale trapped-ion quantum computers

Lee Peleg, David Schwerdt, Jonathan Nemirovsky +5

Quantum computers based on crystals of trapped ions are a prominent technology for quantum computation. A unique feature of trapped ions is their long-range Coulomb interactions, w…

Non-Paraxial Accelerating Beams

Ido Kaminer, Rivka Bekenstein, Jonathan Nemirovsky +1

We present the spatially accelerating solutions of the Maxwell equations. Such non-paraxial beams accelerate in a circular trajectory, thus generalizing the concept of Airy beams.…
