In various embodiments, a system comprising an atomic object confinement apparatus and one or more signal manipulation elements is provided. Each signal manipulation element (a) is associated with a respective atomic object position of the atomic object confinement apparatus and (b) is one of a collection array or an action array. A collection array is configured to, responsive to an emitted signal emitted by an atomic object at the respective atomic object position being incident on the collection array, provide an induced collection signal to a respective collection position. An action array is configured to, responsive to an incoming signal being incident on the action array, provide an induced action signal to the respective atomic object position. The one or more signal manipulation elements comprise metamaterial arrays and/or diffractive optical elements.

Quantum computing using metamaterial arrays

Various embodiments for precise and accurate delivery, in terms of position, frequency, and/or phase, of one or more lasers to an atomic system are provided. In a first embodiment, a gate laser system for a trapped ion quantum computer comprising a first and second laser are provided. The first and second lasers are frequency locked to a first and second frequency of a frequency comb, respectively. The first and second lasers are each configured to provide laser beams to a qubit ion within an ion trap of the quantum computer to provide a gate. In another embodiment, a qubit ion and sympathetic ion management system for a trapped ion quantum computer comprising a first, second, and third laser is provided. Each laser is locked to a different frequency of a frequency comb, and provide one or more laser beams to an ion trap of the quantum computer.
