Abstract:We present an experimental system for Rydberg tweezer arrays with ytterbium (Yb) atoms featuring internal state manipulation between the ground 1 S0 and the metastable 3 P2 states, and single-photon excitation from the 3 P2 to Rydberg states. In the experiments, single Yb atoms are trapped in two-dimensional arrays of optical tweezers and are detected by fluorescence imaging with the intercombination 1 S0 ↔ 3 P1 transition, and the defect-free single atom arrays are prepared by the rearrangement with the feeda… Show more
