Separated Atoms Entangle Without Being Moved
A shared photonic cavity supplies programmable all-to-all connectivity while local lasers select the participating subset.
Summary
A shared photonic cavity supplies programmable all-to-all connectivity while local lasers select the participating subset.
Neutral-atom processors often move optical tweezers to bring distant qubits together, adding motion errors and possible loss. The proposed Mølmer-Sørensen-like gate couples separated atoms through a shared cavity and uses local addressing to choose any subset. Simulations with experimentally realistic parameters report fidelities above 0.99 and robustness to cavity photon-number changes. These are theoretical and numerical results, not a demonstrated gate in hardware.
