We demonstrate high fidelity two-qubit Rydberg blockade and entanglement in a two-dimensional qubit array. The qubit array is defined by a grid of blue detuned lines of light with 121 sites for trapping atomic qubits. Improved experimental methods have increased the observed Bell state fidelity to FBell = 0.86(2). Accounting for errors in state preparation and measurement (SPAM) we infer a fidelity of F−SPAM Bell = 0.89. Including errors in single qubit operations we infer that the Rydberg mediated CZ gate has a fidelity of F−SPAM CZ= 0.91. Comparison with a detailed error model shows that further improvement in fidelitymore »

We present recent progress towards building a neutral atom quantum computer. We use a new design for a blue-detuned optical lattice to trap single Cs atoms. The lattice is created using a combination of diffractive elements and acousto-optic deflectors (AODs) which give a reconfigurable set of cross-hatched lines. By using AODs, we can vary the number of traps and size of the trapping regions as well as eliminate extraneous traps in Talbot planes. Since this trap uses blue-detuned light, it traps both ground state atoms and atoms excited to the Rydberg state; moreover, by tuning the size of the trappingmore »
