  • Publication number: 20240347995
    Abstract: A device for modulating an amplitude of a light beam, comprising a coherent light source configured to generate a phase-modulated beam having a plurality of frequency components; and a dispersive optical element. The dispersive optical element has a group delay dispersion and is configured to receive the phase-modulated beam, to introduce an optical phase shift to each of the plurality of the frequency components, so that the values of the optical phase shift vary non-linearly with frequency according to the group delay dispersion, and to recombine the plurality of frequency components, thereby generating an amplitude-modulated beam.

  • Publication number: 20240289665
    Abstract: A device includes a grouping of N qubits, where N is equal to two or more, and a coherent light source configured to, given selected values for a set of parameters of at least a first and a second laser pulse, the parameters selected from a relative phase shift, a laser frequency, a laser intensity, and a pulse duration: apply at least the first and second laser pulses to all qubits within the grouping of N qubits, thereby coupling a non-interacting quantum state |1 to an interacting excited state |r, such that each qubit that begins in quantum state |1 returns to the state |1 upon completion of the at least first and second laser pulses, and such that qubits in the grouping are mutually blockaded.

  • Patent number: 12051520
    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.

  • Publication number: 20240185113
    Abstract: Error detection and correction in a quantum computer are provided. The quantum computer includes qubits encoding a plurality of data qudits and an ancilla qudit. The qubits encoding the plurality of data qudits are arranged into a grouping wherein the qubits encoding each of the data qudits are within an interaction distance of an interacting state of the qubits encoding the ancilla qudit. A leakage error of a first data qudit of the plurality of data qudits into the interacting state is detected by detecting a state of the ancilla qudit. Quantum states of the qudits are selected such that angular momentum selection rules prohibit mixing between the selected quantum states during a leakage error of one of the qudits into a noninteracting state. The leakage error is corrected by optical pumping of the noninteracting state, preserving coherence of the selected quantum states in the absence of the leakage error.

  • Patent number: 11985451
    Abstract: A method of generating uniform large-scale optical focus arrays (LOT As) with a phase spatial light modulator (SLM) 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 Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm. The method also enables a faster compensation of optical system-induced LOT A intensity inhomogeneity than the conventional IFTA.
