Shots-to-Approximate-Solution Scaling in Neutral-Atom Quantum Optimization

Junwoo Jung, Jaewook Ahn

Whether neutral-atom quantum optimization protocols exhibit genuine concentration toward low-energy solution structure remains an open question. Here, we introduce a shots-to-appro…

Quantum-Enhanced Deterministic Inference of -Independent Set Instances on Neutral Atom Arrays

Juyoung Park, Junwoo Jung, Jaewook Ahn

Noisy quantum annealing experiments on Rydberg atom arrays produce measurement outcomes that deviate from ideal distributions, complicating performance evaluation. To enable a data…

Blinking optical tweezers for atom rearrangements

Kangjin Kim, Kangheun Kim, Jaewook Ahn

We propose and experimentally demonstrate an energy-efficient approach for holding and rearranging an N x M atom array using only N optical tweezers. This is achieved through the s…

Impact-parameter selective Rydberg atom collision by optical tweezers

Hansub Hwang, Sunhwa Hwang, Jaewook Ahn +2

Cold collisions between two Rydberg rubidium atoms (Rb) are investigated by controlling the impact parameter and collision energy. Optical tweezers are employed to hold one…
