Towards quantum science with a large-scale optical tweezer array
POSTER
Abstract
Optical tweezer arrays of neutral atoms are a promising platform for quantum science, enabling exciting demonstrations in quantum simulation and computation. The scalability of the platform is of particular interest in quantum science for achieving qubit numbers and computing capabilities necessary for studying problems of interest. We present here recent progress towards utilizing a large scale tweezer array of over 12,000 sites to study quantum science, focusing on progress towards zone-based quantum processing, including work towards implementation of large array rearrangement and high-fidelity parallel two-qubit Rydberg gates. We describe both the challenges and the opportunities that arise when using a large scale array to approach new studies of quantum science.
