Research Topics

The Singh Group will be an experimental research program that combines aspects of atomic physics, condensed matter physics, quantum information science, and computer science. The group will merge techniques of microscopy with the tools of atomic, molecular, and optical physics to investigate new frontiers of controlling large-scale programmable quantum systems constructed from individually-controlled neutral atoms. An important focus of the group's research will be to develop new methods of performing atomic-scale measurements in order to develop next-generation quantum devices capable of quantum feedback control, quantum error correction, and for studying the interplay between measurements and coherent unitary evolution. The devices constructed in the lab will be highly programmable and reconfigurable, providing dynamic testing grounds for studying open questions in quantum many-body physics, exploring quantum phases of matter, performing simulations of electronic structure in materials, and executing quantum information processing protocols. Below is a list of research themes the group will pursue, with more details coming soon!
