Neutral atom innovations by quantum systems accelerator mark quantum computing milestones
QSA All Personnel Meeting 2024. Credit: Berkeley Lab Before quantum computers can solve complex problems, researchers must develop technologies that manage larger numbers of qubits (the building blocks of quantum…
Researchers create a one-dimensional gas out of light
The polymers applied to the reflective surface trap the photon gas in a parabola of light. The narrower this parabola is, the more one-dimensionally the gas behaves. Credit: IAP/Uni Bonn…
Major leap for nuclear clock paves way for ultraprecise timekeeping
A powerful laser shines into a jet of gas, creating a bright plasma and generating ultraviolet light. The light leaves a visible white line as it interacts with leftover gas…
Cold-atom simulator demonstrates quantum entanglement between electronic and motional states
Atoms in the optical lattice, trapped at a distance of 0.5 micron, are excited to the Rydberg state by the ultrafast excitation technique. Interaction between close Rydberg atoms results in…
UAH researcher wins NASA FINESST scholarship to st
BYLINE: Russ Nelson Newswise — Ashok Silwal, a doctoral candidate and graduate research assistant at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of the University of Alabama System,…
A device to sort photon states could be useful for quantum optical computer circuits
Credit: Natasha Tomm et al To build light-based quantum technologies, scientists and engineers need the ability to generate and manipulate photons as individuals or a few at a time. To…
