17. Quantum matter interfaces based on rubidium–ytterbium dual-element arrays

Bahar Öztürk (uni-muenchen)

Poster

We present the design and construction of a dual-element neutral-atom platform combining Rb-87 and Yb-171 for scalable quantum information processing and distribution. Encoding data and ancilla qubits in distinct atomic species suppresses optical crosstalk, enables faster two-qubit gates, and yields functionally specialized qubits within a single array. The apparatus pairs a compact...

41. Quantum Simulation with trapped rydberg ions in Penning traps

Om Pote

Poster

We report on the development of a quantum simulation platform based on Rydberg-excited
⁴⁰Ca⁺ ions confined in a Penning trap [1,2]. The platform is designed to study long-time
quantum dynamics, collective behavior, and nonequilibrium phenomena in open many-body
systems on timescales far beyond those accessible with conventional trapped-ion simulators
[3].
