SYRY: Symposium Rydberg Physics in Single-Atom Trap Arrays

SYRY 1: Tutorial Rydberg Physics (joint session AKjDPG/SYRY/Q)

SYRY 1.2: Tutorium

Montag, 14. März 2022, 12:00–13:00, AKjDPG-H17

Quantum simulation and quantum computation with Rydberg atom arrays — •Johannes Zeiher — Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, 85748 Garching, Germany — Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST), 80799 Munich, Germany

Understanding quantum mechanical systems of many particles at a microscopic level is one of the grand challenges of modern physics. In 1982, Feynman addressed this issue by formulating his vision that one can use well-controlled quantum systems to simulate and understand other quantum systems. Single atoms trapped in individual optical traps coupled to Rydberg states have recently emerged as a versatile experimental platform geared towards realizing Feynman's vision. In this tutorial, I will focus on the basics of this platform. First, I will describe how individual atoms are loaded, detected, and manipulated in optical tweezers. Afterwards, I will explain how strong, switchable interactions between highly excited atomic Rydberg states emerge, and how they can be induced and controlled by lasers. This will set the stage for highlighting the accessible many-body models for quantum simulation and the potential of the platform for quantum computation, followed by a brief discussion of recent experimental breakthroughs in the field.
