Co-PI Andrew Jayich will use the new technology to create ion traps like the one shown here, in which colors indicate independent electrodes to control trapped ions.
In the laboratory of UC Santa Barbara materials scientist Stephen Wilson, researchers are investigating the physics behind unusual states of matter while designing materials that could support properties useful for future quantum technologies.
“UC Santa Barbara is one of the leading universities in the world who understands [quantum science] better than practically everyone,” Eddleman said in 2021.
