The BernienLab posts their latest work on the dual-species platform on the arXiv. In this work we introduce Rydberg interactions between the cesium and rubidium atoms in our arrays and explore new interaction and dynamic regimes that are unique to this approach.
On June 3, 2025, Hannes Bernien and Hannes Pichler gave their inaugural lectures at the University of Innsbruck, presenting their research programs to a large and interested audience. Both physicists were jointly appointed by the University and the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) and now serve as professors at the University of Innsbruck and scientific directors at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI).
The Klung Wilhemly Science Award is awarded biannually to a outstanding early-career German physicists. This year Hannes received the award for his “pioneering contributions to the development of quantum technology platforms based on Rydberg atoms as well as color centers in diamond”.
At the first Quantum Networks Workshop by AWS Noah Glachman presented his work on the integration of atomic arrays with a telecom photonic chip. His poster drew a lot of attention and won him the Best Poster Award. Congratulations to Noah!
