Heidelberg Quantum Architecture: Fast and modular programmable quantum simulation — •Tobias Hammel1, Maximilian Kaiser1, Philipp Preiss2, Matthias Weidemüller1, and Selim Jochim1 — 1Physikalisches Institut, Heidelberg, Germany — 2MPQ, Garching, Germany
Heidelberg Quantum Architecture (HQA) is a new 6Li quantum gas experiment providing a fast, versatile, and expandable platform for programmable quantum simulation. In this talk, we report on the realization of these characteristics in our new 6Li experiment and first experimental findings.
Key components of the experiment are easily exchangeable optical modules, which include tweezers, a Digital Mirror Device, optical dipole traps, a tuneable 2D confinement and single atom and spin resolved imaging. Our broad and easy to expand toolbox will enable experimental cycles of up to 10Hz in the near future and allow for fast data collection and on-demand quantum simulation.
The current status of the experiment features a 2D-MOT with loading rates of larger than 108atoms/s loaded into a 3D-MOT. From there the atoms are loaded via two optical dipole traps into a tweezer, in which we can rapidly evaporate down to degeneracy.
