When: November 12th, 4:00–5:00 pm

Where: Lauritsen 269, Caltech

Talk: Quantum Limits to Controlling Atoms in Optical Tweezers

Description: Individual atoms trapped in optical tweezers are a promising platform for quantum computing, offering precise control over individual qubits. In this talk, Professor Levine will discuss recent advances in neutral-atom quantum computing and error correction, along with his group's efforts at UC Berkeley to develop new techniques for controlling and measuring atoms at the quantum limit. He will explore how these methods could enable new applications in quantum computing, sensing, and metrology.

Bio: Professor Harry Levine is an Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley, where his research focuses on advancing atomic control for quantum science. He received his B.S. from Stanford in 2015 and Ph.D. from Harvard in 2021, where he worked with Mikhail Lukin on developing neutral-atom quantum computing. Previously, he was a Senior Research Scientist at the Amazon Center for Quantum Computing, working on quantum error correction with superconducting qubits. He is also a Senior Scientist at Oratomic.

Everyone is welcome: minimal technical background is required. Come learn and ask questions. And yes, snacks will be provided.
