SUMMARY:Novel strategies for hardware-efficient quantum processors\, A
 tomic Physics Seminar\, Harry Levine\, AWS Center for Quantum Computin
 g
DESCRIPTION:Quantum error correction is an exciting scientific frontie
 r at the interface of many fields including quantum information scienc
 e\, many-body physics\, and computer science. The field has developed 
 rapidly in the last several years\, with major milestones marking the 
 first glimpses into a future of error-corrected quantum computers. At 
 the same time\, these advances have also illuminated the major science
  and engineering challenges that remain on the road to useful fault-to
 lerant quantum computers due to large resource overheads and demanding
  performance and control requirements. In this talk\, I will discuss r
 ecent progress in strategies to ease the demands of error correction w
 ith a focus on two leading quantum information platforms: superconduct
 ing circuits and cold atoms. First\, I will discuss the paradigm of â€
 śerasure qubits” which are qubits for which errors can be flagged in
  real-time and are consequently easier to correct. In this context\, I
  will discuss recent experiments showing how erasure qubits can be rea
 lized using a “dual-rail” encoding in superconducting transmons\, 
 offering a way to package standard qubit components into better error 
 correction building blocks. Second\, I will discuss the recent\, rapid
  progress in neutral atom quantum computers and highlight how the uniq
 ue capabilities for efficient and flexible control can ease the path t
 owards scalable operation of error-corrected quantum processors. Final
 ly\, I will discuss prospects for next-generation neutral atom systems
  and applications in quantum error correction and precision measuremen
 t.
