QUANTUM NETWORK USING RYDBERG ATOMIC ARRAY

Cold atomic systems have played a pivotal role in the recent developments in Quantum Technologies owing to their high degree of controllability and access to the quantum regime due to their cold temperatures. Atoms excited to Rydberg states with high principal quantum numbers have extraordinary properties such as strong dipole-dipole interaction, large values of polarisability and much longer lifetimes compared to atoms in their ground state. These exotic characteristics and a high degree of controllability make ultra-cold Rydberg atoms versatile atomic building blocks for a variety of quantum technologies, such as scalable quantum information networks using an array of fast quantum gates, precision electrometry and magnetometry as well as a robust single-photon source for secure quantum communications.
