Assembling a Bose-Hubbard superfluid from tweezer-controlled single atoms
William J. Eckner, Theodor Lukin Yelin, Alec Cao +4
Quantum simulation relies on the preparation and control of low-entropy many-body systems to reveal the behavior of classically intractable models. The development of new approache…
Autoionization-enhanced Rydberg dressing by fast contaminant removal
Alec Cao, Theodor Lukin Yelin, William J. Eckner +2
Rydberg dressing is a powerful tool for entanglement generation in long-lived atomic states. While already employed effectively in several demonstrations, a key challenge for this…
Multi-qubit gates and Schrödinger cat states in an optical clock
Alec Cao, William J. Eckner, Theodor Lukin Yelin +8
Many-particle entanglement is a key resource for achieving the fundamental precision limits of a quantum sensor. Optical atomic clocks, the current state-of-the-art in frequency pr…
An atomic boson sampler
Aaron W. Young, Shawn Geller, William J. Eckner +4
A boson sampler implements a restricted model of quantum computing. It is defined by the ability to sample from the distribution resulting from the interference of identical bosons…
Realizing spin squeezing with Rydberg interactions in a programmable optical clock
William J. Eckner, Nelson Darkwah Oppong, Alec Cao +5
Neutral-atom arrays trapped in optical potentials are a powerful platform for studying quantum physics, combining precise single-particle control and detection with a range of tuna…
Tweezer-programmable 2D quantum walks in a Hubbard-regime lattice
Aaron W. Young, William J. Eckner, Nathan Schine +2
Quantum walks provide a framework for understanding and designing quantum algorithms that is both intuitive and universal. To leverage the computational power of these walks, it is…
Long-lived Bell states in an array of optical clock qubits
Nathan Schine, Aaron W. Young, William J. Eckner +2
The generation of long-lived entanglement on an optical clock transition is a key requirement to unlocking the promise of quantum metrology. Arrays of neutral atoms constitute a ca…
High-Power, Fiber-Laser-Based Source for Magic-Wavelength Trapping in Neutral-Atom Optical Clocks
William J. Eckner, Aaron W. Young, Nathan Schine +1
We present a continuous-wave, 810 nm laser with watt-level powers. Our system is based on difference-frequency generation of 532 nm and 1550 nm fiber lasers in a single pass throug…
A tweezer clock with half-minute atomic coherence at optical frequencies and high relative stability
Aaron W. Young, William J. Eckner, William R. Milner +6
The preparation of large, low-entropy, highly coherent ensembles of identical quantum systems is foundational for many studies in quantum metrology, simulation, and information. He…
Seconds-scale coherence in a tweezer-array optical clock
Matthew A. Norcia, Aaron W. Young, William J. Eckner +3
Optical clocks based on atoms and ions achieve exceptional precision and accuracy, with applications to relativistic geodesy, tests of relativity, and searches for dark matter. Ach…
