Towards programmable ytterbium tweezer array at KRISS

Neutral atoms in programmable tweezer array have emerged as a versatile platform for quantum computation, quantum simulation, and quantum metrology. Especially, tweezer array of two-electron atoms is recently developing, seeking new opportunities over one-electron atoms. In this poster, we present progress towards two-electron-atom tweezer array of ytterbium atoms at Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS), where researches on quantum gas and optical clock have been being conducted with ytterbium. We are aiming to use the ytterbium tweezer array for hybrid analog-digital quantum computation and simulation, and optical frequency metrology, utilizing ytterbium's new opportunities such as optical clock transition, nuclear spin qubit, single-photon Rydberg transition, and ion-core transition.
