We theoretically study a new approach to matter-wave interferometer that utilizes ultracold atoms confined in an optical lattice of light, which is a platform that shares characteristics with lattice atomic clocks. Through patterned phase modulation of the lattice, the matter wave is split, mirrored, and recombined, resulting in sensitivity to an applied inertial signal as was recently demonstrated experimentally in [1]. Compared to free-space equivalents, this “shaken lattice” interferometer has the advantage that atoms remain always supported against external forces and perturbations and that by applying different shaking sequences the device could be made sensitive to AC or DC signals or reconfigured on-the-fly into an accelerometer, gyroscope, or gravity gradiometer. We present results using machine learning and quantum optical control to push the sensitivity of these devices while exploring the large quantum design space of multi-dimensional quantum sensors.

Most quantum technologies start as academic and research tools serving a niche community of scientists. Getting these quantum tools out of the lab is usually an arduous process only worth undertaking when there is a reasonably sized user-market at the end of the development cycle. Maximizing the total addressable market requires making fieldable tech that satisfies non-specialist customer needs. At a minimum, quantum tech products must strive to be (1) automated for operation by non-scientists, (2) fieldable in diverse operating conditions, (3) ship-able in extremely diverse storage conditions, (4) long-lived, and (5) provide significant value-to-price ratio. Successful quantum tech products also do this in a way that feeds into volume manufacturing. Atomic clocks are an excellent use case of how quantum products broke into existing markets, made new markets, and became critical, widespread products underpinning modern-day existence. Now, optical atomic clocks are experiencing a similar process coming to market, which will be discussed in the context of quantum minimum viable products.

So, Quantum is ready, but is the Supply Chain ready? This talk will first review which application areas within Quantum are suited for Manufacturing and then take a look at some details associated with scaling up manufacturing to meet the market need. These details include vapor cell and vacuum cell manufacturing, lasers and photonic integrated circuits, and traditional manufacturing issues such as testing, characterization, Verification and Validation, and automation. Where are the holes, what is currently being addressed, what is not being addressed, and who will fund these developments?

Infleqtion's quantum design platform, "Oqtant," equips users with remote access to quantum hardware for performing sophisticated research and enriching scientific education. Users can dynamically control reconfigurable optical fields applied to ultracold atoms – a method known as "painted potentials" – expanding their exploration of quantum phenomena, including quantum sensing techniques. The platform offers tutorials, demos, and simulations to empower users to study and develop applications with our hardware. We will introduce Oqtant and explore how users can leverage the platform for education, quantum research, and sensor development.
Presenter: Alexandra E. Tingle
Alex Tingle started at Infleqtion in 2019 as the vacuum engineer and fourth female member of the technical staff. She currently serves as Technical Product Manager for Oqtant, the remotely accessible quantum matter design platform. Previously, she earned her industry chops with nearly a decade in functional test design, vacuum engineering, vacuum research, and a reputation for enthusiastically bringing a sense of order to projects and lab spaces. She holds a BA and MSc in Physics from the University of Colorado – Boulder and the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics (JILA).
Introducing the desqtopMOT
The desqtopMOT is the world's only commercially available cold atom platform that seamlessly introduces users to the world of cold atom atomic physics and takes them on a step-by-step journey starting with exploring how light and atoms interact to creating exquisite states of quantum matter in the form of rubidium MOT clouds.
