Abstract: Ultracold polar molecules are promising candidate qubits for quantum computing and quantum simulations. Their long-lived molecular rotational states form robust qubits, and the long-range dipolar interaction between molecules provides quantum entanglement. We demonstrate dipolar spin-exchange interactions between single CaF molecules trapped in an optical tweezer array.
Abstract: The Advanced LIGO detectors operate at a regime where quantum uncertainty imposes a fundamental limitation to sensitivity in the form of quantum shot noise and quantum radiation pressure noise. During the last gravitational wave observing run O3, the LIGO and Virgo detectors used quantum states of light known as squeezed states of light in order to reduce high frequency quantum shot noise.
A reception with cake in the h-bar will be held after the talk. All JILAns are welcome and encouraged to attend the talk and the reception.

Abstract:
Abstract: Because it can be applied in-situ in a continuous fashion, and can be tailored to preserve or break selected spatial symmetries, piezoelectric devices-based strain has lately emerged as a versatile tuning parameter of quantum materials. In this talk we will focus on utilizing anisotropic strain as a probe of otherwise elusive multipolar orders in solids. Using the adiabatic AC elastocaloric effect, a compact, thermodynamic strain-based experimental technique [1,2], we study anisotropic strain effects on f electron-based multipolar orders [3,4].
