Quantum Simulator with Hot Atomic Vapors

Introduction

In the context of the ongoing development of novel quantum technologies, including quantum sensors, quantum communication, quantum simulators, and quantum computing, some devices are mature without resorting to the powerful but fragile entanglement between qubits.

Role of Photons

Exploiting the wave nature of devices, photons often play an important role. In order to enlarge the potential of photonic devices, controlled atom-photon interactions will be pushed to new limits in order to build analog and digital wave simulators.

Project Overview

In the present project, these interactions are mediated via photon-atom coupling using room temperature cells of atomic vapours.
