Quantum Applications with Rydberg Atom Arrays
Rydberg atoms arrays have emerged as a promising platform for assembling quantum matter in a bottom-up approach. This platform combines deterministically prepared, reconfigurable arrays of individually trapped cold atoms with strong, coherent interactions enabled by excitation to atomic Rydberg states and in situ state readout. It enables a scalable realization of quantum spin models with system sizes beyond what can be simulated on classical computers. The main goal of this project is to harness many-body properties of Rydberg atoms for applications in next-generation quantum technology. The first goal is to explore the possibility to harness a novel, robust dynamical quantum many-body…
