Developing a Large-Scale, Programmable Trapped Ion Quantum Simulator with In Situ Mid-Circuit Measurement and Reset
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-25)Quantum simulators are a valuable resource for studying complex many-body systems. With their ability to provide near-term advantages, analog quantum simulators show great promise. In this thesis, my aim is to describe the ... -
Tunnel Ionization in Strong Fields in atoms and molecules and its applications
(University of Waterloo, 2011-04-26)We look at the theory of ionization of atoms and molecules in the presence of a strong laser field. The history of ionization of atoms is reviewed and the methods used to calculate the ionization rates are examined in ... -
Ultra-Cold CsLi Molecules as a Platform for Quantum Information Processing
(University of Waterloo, 2022-12-19)Despite their proposal 40 years ago, quantum computers are still in their infancy, with a panoply of various systems demonstrated as potential methods of quantum information processing. Rydberg atoms are a leading platform, ...
