Optical atomic clocks represent the state of the art in the frontier of modern measurement
science. In this article a detailed review on the development of optical atomic clocks that are …

Electric-field noise near surfaces is a common problem in diverse areas of physics and a
limiting factor for many precision measurements. There are multiple mechanisms by which …

The van der Pol oscillator is the prototypical self-sustained oscillator and has been used to
model nonlinear behavior in biological and other classical processes. We investigate how …

The robust generation of quantum states in the presence of decoherence is a primary
challenge for explorations of quantum mechanics at larger scales. Using the mechanical …

We investigate quantum control of a single atom in a tightly focused optical tweezer trap. We
show that inevitable spatially varying polarization gives rise to significant internal-state …

Here we review the field of atom chips in the context of Bose–Einstein Condensates (BEC)
as well as cold matter in general. Twenty years after the first realization of the BEC and 15 …

Motional heating of trapped atomic ions is a major obstacle to their use as quantum bits in a
scalable quantum computer. The detailed physical origin of this heating is not well …

We propose a new scalable platform for quantum computing (QC)—an array of optically
trapped symmetric-top molecules (STMs) of the alkaline earth monomethoxide (MOCH3) …

Protecting superconducting qubits from low-frequency noise is essential for advancing
superconducting quantum computation. Based on the application of a periodic drive field …

We present the design, fabrication and experimental implementation of surface ion traps
with Y-shaped junctions. The traps are designed to minimize the pseudopotential variations …
