Recent Publications
Floquet control of interactions and edge states in a programmable quantum simulator.
Journal Article Nature communications · October 2025 Quantum simulators based on trapped ions enable the study of spin systems and models with rich dynamical phenomena. The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model for fermions in one dimension is a canonical example that can support a topological insulator phase whe ... Full text CiteIn situ midcircuit qubit measurement and reset in a single-species trapped-ion quantum computing system
Journal Article Physical Review Research · October 1, 2025 We implement in situ midcircuit measurement and reset (MCMR) operations on a full-scale trapped-ion quantum computing system by using metastable qubit states in Yb+171 ions. We compare two methods for isolating data qubits from measured qubits: ... Full text CiteNon-equilibrium critical scaling and universality in a quantum simulator.
Journal Article Nature communications · August 2025 Universality and scaling laws are hallmarks of equilibrium phase transitions and critical phenomena. However, extending these concepts to non-equilibrium systems is an outstanding challenge. Despite recent progress in the study of dynamical phases, the uni ... Full text CiteRecent Grants
