Scalable architecture for Atomtronics flux qubits
Year: 2016
Type: preprint
Abstract: Through a combination of laser beams, we engineer a two-dimensional optical lattice of Mexican hat potentials able to host atoms in its ring-shaped wells. When tunneling can be ignored (at high laser intensities), we show that a well-defined qubit can be associated to atoms trapped in each of the rings. Each of these two-level systems can be manipulated by a suitable configuration of Raman laser beams imprinting a synthetic flux onto each Mexican hat cell of the lattice. Overall, the system forms a scalable architecture for Atomtronics flux qubits.
