An atom-by-atom assembler of defect-free arbitrary two-dimensional atomic arrays
Making perfect atomic arrays Arrays of atoms can be a useful resource for quantum information. However, loading atoms into arrays is typically a stochastic process, which leads to imperfections. Two groups have now performed defect-free assembly of atoms into arrays (see the Perspective by Regal). The researchers first loaded the …
