Abstract: Our quantum experiment consists of a chain of 171Yb+ ions with individual Raman beam addressing and individual readout. This fully connected system can be configured to run any sequence of ...
Abstract: Quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols have been proven to be information theoretically secure based on fundamental laws in quantum mechanics. However, practical QKD systems often deviate...
Abstract: Controlling Spin Exchange Interactions of Ultracold Atoms in Optical Lattices: We describe a general technique that allows one to induce and control strong interaction between spin states o...
Abstract: We present the design and construction of a novel apparatus to rapidly and simply generate a 23Na Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in hybrid magnetic and optical traps. Sodium atoms are colle...
Abstract: A single ion immersed in a neutral buffer gas is studied. An analytical model is developed that gives a complete description of the dynamics and steady-state properties of the ions. An exte...
Abstract: The ultimate goal of quantum computing is to build a fault-tolerant quantum computer (FTQC), where the number of qubits is sufficiently large and the error rate is satisfactorily low, such ...
