Abstract: Topological qubits are provided in a quantum spin liquid. In various embodiments, a device is provided comprising a two-dimensional array of particles, each particle disposed at a vertex of a ruby lattice having a parameter ? greater than 1 2 ; each particle having a first state and an excited state; each particle that belongs to at least three unit cells of the ruby lattice having a blockade radius, when in the excited state, sufficient to blockade each of at least six nearest neighboring particles in the ruby lattice from transitioning from its first state to its excited state, and wherein the array has at least one outer edge configured to be in a first boundary condition.

Abstract: Systems and methods relate to arranging atoms into 1D and/or 2D arrays; exciting the atoms into Rydberg states and evolving the array of atoms, for example, using laser manipulation techniques and high-fidelity laser systems described herein; and observing the resulting final state. In addition, refinements can be made, such as providing high fidelity and coherent control of the assembled array of atoms. Exemplary problems can be solved using the systems and methods for arrangement and control of atoms.

Abstract: A system for optically modulating a plurality of optical channels includes a power delivery module adapted to convert a coherent light beam into a plurality of optical channels, at least one optical modulator, optically coupled to the power delivery module, the at least one optical modulator adapted to optically modulate each of the plurality of the optical channels, and a vacuum chamber having a trapping plane therein, the vacuum chamber adapted to generate an addressable array of trapped particles at the trapping plane, wherein each of the plurality of optical channels is optically coupled to at least one of the trapped particles of the addressable array.

Abstract: A method of generating uniform large-scale optical focus arrays (LOT As) with a phase spatial light modulator includes identifying and removing undesired phase rotation in the iterative Fourier transform algorithm (IFTA), thereby producing computer-generated holograms of highly uniform LOT As using a reduced number of iterations as compared to a weighted Gerch-berg-Saxton algorithm. The method also enables a faster compensation of optical system-induced LOT A intensity inhomogeneity than the conventional IFTA.

Abstract: An identification of a first area of an IC design surrounding a failure component is received; and, in response, a smaller portion of the first area is selected. The smaller portion also surrounds the failure component, is smaller than the first area, and contains less circuit components than the first area. The smaller portion is matched to other areas of the IC design to identify potentially undesirable patterns of the IC design that are the same size as the first area. Additionally, the potentially undesirable patterns are grouped into pattern categories, the pattern categories are matched to known good pattern categories, and the known good patterns are removed from the potentially undesirable patterns to leave potential failure patterns. The potential failure patterns of the IC design are then output.
