SUMMARY:Reusable Neutral Atom Qubits for Quantum Information Applicati
ons\, Atomic Physics Seminar\, Michael Gibbons\, Georgia Institute of
Technology
DESCRIPTION:Most neutral atom quantum computing experiments rely on de
structive state detection techniques that eject the detected qubits fr
om the trap. These techniques limit the repetition rate of these expe
riments due to the necessity of reloading a new quantum register for e
ach operation.
\n
\nWe address this problem by developing reu
sable neutral atom qubits. Individual 87Rb atoms are trapped in an op
tical lattice and are held for upwards of 300 s. Each atom is prepare
d in an initial quantum state and the state is subsequently detected w
ith 95% accuracy and with less than a 1% probability of losing it from
the trap. The combination of long storage times and lossless state d
etection could help facilitate the development of faster and more comp
lex quantum operations that will enable future advancements in the fie
ld of neutral atom quantum information.
