We have completed the optical setup for a 461 nm laser source that will be employed for slowing down, capturing in a 3D MOT and imaging Strontium atoms in the FloRydberg platform. Blue MOT, we will be there soon! |
Rydberg atoms in optical tweezers are great for quantum technologies! We are building the first Italian platform based on programmable arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms. We use strontium, which provides states with long coherence time and state-selective transitions enabling advanced manipulation and readout schemes for novel approaches to quantum simulation and quantum computation.

We finished the assembly and baking of a really compact ultra-high vacuum apparatus. Ready to host Strontium atoms!. |

Vladislav Gavryusev has received a grant for his project MicroSpinEnergy funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) and has become a fixed-term researcher in Physics of Matter at the Department of Physics and Astronomy. In the next three years he will translate advanced microscopy methods to investigate quantum spin models and energy transport in finely engineered systems of Sr atoms in optical tweezers with single particle control. |
