Collimation of dense atomic beams by Swept Velocity Shelving
Francesca FamÃ, Benedikt Heizenreder, Ananya Sitaram +4
Engineering continuous, high-flux, and collimated atomic beams is a useful resource for metrology and material deposition. Developments in this area have been essential for the evo…
A Robust Strontium Tweezer Apparatus for Quantum Computing
Marijn Venderbosch, Rik van Herk, Zhichao Guo +11
Neutral atoms for quantum computing applications show promise in terms of scalability and connectivity. We demonstrate the realization of a versatile apparatus capable of stochasti…
Direct observation of the optical Magnus effect with a trapped ion
Philip Leindecker, Louis P. H. Gallagher, Edgar Brucke +7
We directly observe and spatially map an optical analog of the Magnus effect, where intrinsic spin-orbit-like coupling of light generates a spin-dependent transverse displacement o…
Engineering Zeeman-manifold quintets using state-dependent light shifts in neutral atoms
Benedikt Heizenreder, Bas Gerritsen, Katya Fouka +4
We present a general method for engineering qudits through individually addressable transitions between Zeeman sublevels, achieved by combining a large linear Zeeman shift with a s…
Control of single spin-flips in a Rydberg atomic fractal
Robin C. Verstraten, Ivo H. A. Knottnerus, Yu Chih Tseng +6
Rydberg atoms trapped by optical tweezers have emerged as a versatile platform to emulate lattices with different geometries, in which long-range interacting spins lead to fascinat…
Parallel assembly of neutral atom arrays with an SLM using linear phase interpolation
Ivo H. A. Knottnerus, Yu Chih Tseng, Alexander Urech +2
We present fast parallel rearrangement of single atoms in optical tweezers into arbitrary geometries by updating holograms displayed by an ultra fast spatial light modulator. Using…
