Device for MHz-rate rastering of arbitrary 2D optical potentials

Edita Bytyqi, Josiah Sinclair, Joshua Ramette +1

Current architectures for neutral-atom arrays utilize devices such as acousto-optic deflectors (AODs) and spatial light modulators (SLMs) to multiplex a single classical control li…

Efficient construction of fault-tolerant neutral-atom cluster states

Luke M. Stewart, Gefen Baranes, Joshua Ramette +2

Cluster states are a useful resource in quantum computation, and can be generated by applying entangling gates between next-neighbor qubits. Heralded entangling gates offer the adv…

Leveraging Qubit Loss Detection in Fault Tolerant Quantum Algorithms

Gefen Baranes, Madelyn Cain, J. Pablo Bonilla Ataides +5

Qubit loss errors constitute a dominant source of noise in many quantum hardware systems, particularly in neutral atom quantum computers. We develop a theoretical framework to effe…

Site-selective cavity readout and classical error correction of a 5-bit atomic register

Beili Hu, Josiah Sinclair, Edita Bytyqi +5

Optical cavities can provide fast and non-destructive readout of individual atomic qubits; however, scaling up to many qubits remains a challenge. Using locally addressed excited-s…

Fault-tolerant optical interconnects for neutral-atom arrays

Josiah Sinclair, Joshua Ramette, Brandon Grinkemeyer +3

We analyze the use of photonic links to enable large-scale fault-tolerant connectivity of locally error-corrected modules based on neutral atom arrays. Our approach makes use of re…

Counter-factual carving exponentially improves entangled-state fidelity

Joshua Ramette, Josiah Sinclair, Vladan Vuletić

We propose a new method, "counter-factual" carving, that uses the "no-jump" evolution of a probe to generate entangled many-body states of high fidelity. The probe is coupled to a…

How much time does a photon spend as an atomic excitation before being transmitted?

Kyle Thompson, Kehui Li, Daniela Angulo +5

When a single photon traverses a cloud of 2-level atoms, the average time it spends as an atomic excitation -- as measured by weakly probing the atoms -- can be shown to be the spo…

Degradation of TaO / SiO Dielectric Cavity Mirrors in Ultra-High Vacuum

Alyssa Rudelis, Beili Hu, Josiah Sinclair +6

In order for optical cavities to enable strong light-matter interactions for quantum metrology, networking, and scalability in quantum computing systems, their mirrors must have mi…

Fault-Tolerant Connection of Error-Corrected Qubits with Noisy Links

Joshua Ramette, Josiah Sinclair, Nikolas P. Breuckmann +1

One of the most promising routes towards scalable quantum computing is a modular approach. We show that distinct surface code patches can be connected in a fault-tolerant manner ev…

Any-to-any connected cavity-mediated architecture for quantum computing with trapped ions or Rydberg arrays

Joshua Ramette, Josiah Sinclair, Zachary Vendeiro +3

We propose a hardware architecture and protocol for connecting many local quantum processors contained within an optical cavity. The scheme is compatible with trapped ions or Rydbe…

Measuring the time atoms spend in the excited state due to a photon they don't absorb

Josiah Sinclair, Daniela Angulo, Kyle Thompson +3

When a resonant photon traverses a sample of absorbing atoms, how much time do atoms spend in the excited state? Does the answer depend on whether the photon is ultimately absorbed…

Generation of doubly excited Rydberg states based on Rydberg antiblockade in a cold atomic ensemble

Jacob Taylor, Josiah Sinclair, Kent Bonsma-Fisher +3

Interaction between Rydberg atoms can significantly modify Rydberg excitation dynamics. Under a resonant driving field the Rydberg-Rydberg interaction in high-lying states can indu…

Observation of a large, resonant, cross-Kerr nonlinearity in a free-space Rydberg medium

Josiah Sinclair, Daniela Angulo, Noah Lupu-Gladstein +2

We report the experimental observation of a cross-Kerr nonlinearity in a free-space medium based on resonantly-excited, interacting Rydberg atoms and electromagnetically induced tr…

Interpreting weak value amplification with a toy realist model

Josiah Sinclair, David Spierings, Aharon Brodutch +1

Constructing an ontology for quantum theory is challenging, in part due to unavoidable measurement back-action. The Aharonov-Albert-Vaidman weak measurement formalism provides a me…

Simulating one-dimensional systems with stationary Rydberg dark polaritons

Hudson Pimenta, Aaron Z. Goldberg, Josiah Sinclair +1

Electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) with Rydberg atoms enables strong interactions between atoms to be controlled and measured by pulses of light. Consequently, Rydberg…
