Single atoms and molecules can be trapped in tightly focused beams of light that form
'optical tweezers', affording exquisite capabilities for the control and detection of individual …

Quantum spin liquids may be considered'quantum disordered'ground states of spin systems,
in which zero-point fluctuations are so strong that they prevent conventional magnetic long …

We report on the realization of a fast, scalable, and high-fidelity qubit architecture, based on
Yb 171 atoms in an optical tweezer array. We demonstrate several attractive properties of …

The preparation of large, low-entropy, highly coherent ensembles of identical quantum
systems is fundamental for many studies in quantum metrology, simulation and information …

The realization of large-scale fully controllable quantum systems is an exciting frontier in
modern physical science. We use atom-by-atom assembly to implement a platform for the …

Quantum walks provide a framework for designing quantum algorithms that is both intuitive
and universal. To leverage the computational power of these walks, it is important to be able …

A particular strength of ultracold quantum gases is the range of versatile detection methods
that are available. As they are based on atom–light interactions, the whole quantum optics …

Nearly 30 years ago, two-photon interference was observed, marking the beginning of a
new quantum era. Indeed, two-photon interference has no classical analogue, giving it a …

We demonstrate single-shot imaging and narrow-line cooling of individual alkaline-earth
atoms in optical tweezers; specifically, strontium trapped in 515.2-nm light. Our approach …

We realize a quantum-gas microscope for fermionic K 40 atoms trapped in an optical lattice,
which allows one to probe strongly correlated fermions at the single-atom level. We combine …
