Independent individual addressing of multiple neutral atom qubits with a micromirror-based beam steering system
Abstract
We demonstrate a scalable approach to addressing multiple atomic qubits for use in
quantum information processing. Individually trapped 87Rb atoms in a linear array
are selectively manipulated with a single laser guided by a microelectromechanical
beam steering system. Single qubit oscillations are shown on multiple sites at frequencies
of ≃3.5 MHz with negligible crosstalk to neighboring sites. Switching times between
the central atom and its closest neighbor were measured to be 6-7 μs while moving
between the central atom and an atom two trap sites away took 10-14 μs. © 2010 American
