We demonstrate trapping and quantum state control of single Cesium atoms in a 532 nm wavelength bottle beam trap. The three dimensional trap is formed by crossing two unit charge vortex beams. Single atoms are loaded with 50% probability directly from a magneto-optical trap. We achieve a trapping lifetime of up to 6 s, and demonstrate fast Rabi oscillations with a coherence time of $T_2sim 43 pm 9rm ms$.

We demonstrate universal quantum control over chains of ions in a surface-electrode ion trap, including all the fundamental operations necessary to perform algorithms in a one-dimensional, nearest-neighbor quantum computing architecture. We realize b
oth single-qubit operations and nearest-neighbor entangling gates with Raman laser beams, and we interleave the two gate types. We report average single-qubit gate fidelities as high as 0.970(1) for two-, three-, and four-ion chains, characterized with randomized benchmarking. We generate Bell states between the nearest-neighbor pairs of a three-ion chain, with fidelity up to 0.84(2). We combine one- and two-qubit gates to perform quantum process tomography of a CNOT gate in a two-ion chain, and we report an overall fidelity of 0.76(3).
We clarify the optimal conditions for the protocol of Raman sideband cooling (RSC) of a single atom confined with a tightly focused far-off-resonant optical dipole trap (optical tweezers). The protocol ultimately pursues cooling to a three-dimensiona
l ground state of the confining potential. We show that the RSC protocol has to fulfil a set of critical requirements for the parameters of cooling beams and the excitation geometry to be effective in a most general three-dimensional confguration and for an atom, having initial temperature between the recoil and the Doppler bounds. We perform a numerical simulation of the Raman passage for an example of an $^{85}$Rb atom taking into account the full level structure and all possible transition channels.
Precision sensing, and in particular high precision magnetometry, is a central goal of research into quantum technologies. For magnetometers, often trade-offs exist between sensitivity, spatial resolution, and frequency range. The precision, and thus
the sensitivity of magnetometry, scales as $1/sqrt {T_2}$ with the phase coherence time, $T_2$, of the sensing system playing the role of a key determinant. Adapting a dynamical decoupling scheme that allows for extending $T_2$ by orders of magnitude and merging it with a magnetic sensing protocol, we achieve a measurement sensitivity even for high frequency fields close to the standard quantum limit. Using a single atomic ion as a sensor, we experimentally attain a sensitivity of $4.6$ pT $/sqrt{Hz}$ for an alternating-current magnetic field near 14 MHz. Based on the principle demonstrated here, this unprecedented sensitivity combined with spatial resolution in the nanometer range and tunability from direct-current to the gigahertz range could be used for magnetic imaging in as of yet inaccessible parameter regimes.
The new generation of planar Penning traps promises to be a flexible and versatile tool for quantum information studies. Here, we propose a fully controllable and reversible way to change the typical trapping harmonic potential into a double-well pot
ential, in the axial direction. In this configuration a trapped particle can perform coherent oscillations between the two wells. The tunneling rate, which depends on the barrier height and width, can be adjusted at will by varying the potential difference applied to the trap electrodes. Most notably, tunneling rates in the range of kHz are achievable even with a trap size of the order of 100 microns.
Quantum effects, prevalent in the microscopic scale, generally elusive in macroscopic systems due to dissipation and decoherence. Quantum phenomena in large systems emerge only when particles are strongly correlated as in superconductors and superflu
ids. Cooperative interaction of correlated atoms with electromagnetic fields leads to superradiance, the enhanced quantum radiation phenomenon, exhibiting novel physics such as quantum Dicke phase and ultranarrow linewidth for optical clocks. Recent researches to imprint atomic correlation directly demonstrated controllable collective atom-field interactions. Here, we report cavity-mediated coherent single-atom superradiance. Single atoms with predefined correlation traverse a high-Q cavity one by one, emitting photons cooperatively with the atoms already gone through the cavity. Such collective behavior of time-separated atoms is mediated by the long-lived cavity field. As a result, a coherent field is generated in the steady state, whose intensity varies as the square of the number of traversing atoms during the cavity decay time, exhibiting more than ten-fold enhancement from noncollective cases. The correlation among single atoms is prepared with the aligned atomic phase achieved by nanometer-precision position control of atoms with a nanohole-array aperture. The present work deepens our understanding of the collective matter-light interaction and provides an advanced platform for phase-controlled atom-field interactions.
