The CUbit Update - April 2024

Tuesday, April 30 @ 4 p.m.
Chancellor's Hall & Auditorium, Center for Academic Success & Engagement (CASE) 4th Floor

Light refreshments will be served starting at 3:30 p.m. Talk begins at 4 p.m.

Neutral atom quantum computing is a rapidly developing field. Exploring new atomic species, such as alkaline earth atoms, provides additional opportunities for cooling and trapping, measurement, qubit manipulation, high-fidelity gates and quantum error correction. In this talk, Professor Thompson will present recent results from his group on implementing high-fidelity gates on nuclear spins encoded in metastable 171Yb atoms, including mid-circuit detection of gate errors that give rise to leakage out of the qubit space, using erasure conversion. He will conclude by discussing several new directions including spectroscopy and modeling of 171Yb Rydberg states and interactions, and the construction of high-speed modulators for local gate addressing.
