Abstract

A quantum computing system includes a first resonator couplable to a first alkali atom, a second resonator couplable to a second alkali atom, and lasers for trapping, cooling, and manipulating the first alkali atom and the second alkali atom. Detectors detect a presence of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom, and a processor is configured to receive at least one input signal from at least one of the detectors, the input signal indicating a presence of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom, and, based on the received input, control at least some of the lasers to manipulate at least one of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom to thereby generate photonic qubits using the trapped first alkali atom or generate entanglement between photonic qubits transmitted to the trapped second alkali atom.
