Integration of cold atoms with nanophotonic chips is a promising approach for realizing scalable quantum technologies, but stable trapping of individual atoms near a chip’s surface remains an outstanding challenge. This study uses optical tweezers to deliver single atoms within 10 μm of the surface. Additionally, the authors reveal that atom loss is dominated by surface-induced evaporation, which can be mitigated with the use of standing-wave tweezers. This result demonstrates the viability of long-lived atomic qubits when they are integrated with photonic circuits, and provides design insights for hybrid quantum systems.

Strain control of quantum materials offers exciting opportunities, but progress has been limited by a lack of probes for accessing microscopic electronic properties under strain. This study presents a strain-tunable microwave cavity that integrates a piezoactuator-based device with a high-dielectric rutile resonator, enabling precise measurements of low-energy quasiparticle excitations under tunable strain. Applying this technique to an iron-based superconductor allows direct observation of strain-controlled superconductivity via microwave spectroscopy. This powerful probe for quantum materials might also serve as a platform for future applications, such as quantum hybrid systems.

The macroscopic behavior of matter is shaped by its microscopic symmetries, and how they respond to external stimuli. This work illustrates how nonsymmorphic symmetries (mirror reflection followed by fractional translation parallel to the reflection plane) manifest in laser-matter interaction. Despite the absence of inversion symmetry, nonsymmorphic symmetry counterintuitively forbids even-order optical responses. This study also reveals strong polarization-dependent anisotropies unique to higher-order effects. These results highlight how symmetry-protected quantum systems can serve as powerful platforms for designing tunable ultrafast optoelectronic and quantum devices.

High-resolution, broadband spectroscopy is essential for precision measurements in atomic physics and the search for new fundamental interactions, but progress is often hindered by the difficulty of measuring complex, dense atomic spectra—especially for rare-earth elements. This Letter presents enhanced multichannel dual-comb spectroscopy that combines a photodetector array with a scheme for resolving frequency ambiguities. The technique reveals unanticipated absorption lines for samarium, demonstrating the method’s discovery potential and pointing to massively parallel spectroscopy for e.g. studying atoms in pulsed ultrahigh magnetic fields.

Infrared absorption spectroscopy is vital to identifying point defects in semiconductors, though it is challenged by complicated defect systems involving symmetry-broken multiatomic vibrations, based on traditional group-theory analysis. This work meets that challenge by combining polarization-resolved infrared spectroscopy with first-principles calculations of defect-vibration-induced dipole-moment variations (DMVs). Thus the authors are able to reveal the Mg- complex in -type GaN as a pertinent example, by determining the DMV for all three local vibrational modes, both experimentally and theoretically.

Oscillator Ising machines (OIMs) are nonlinear dynamical systems that offer a physics-inspired approach to minimizing the Ising Hamiltonian. Performance, however, is often sensitive to the alignment of the system’s intrinsic dynamics with the structure of the input graph. This work presents the dynamical Ising machine (DIM), a complementary system operating in a fundamentally different phase-space geometry and exploring the solution landscape differently from an OIM. The hybrid approach of running OIMs and DIMs in parallel leverages diversity in dynamical behavior, enhancing both the effectiveness and robustness of the analog approach to solving combinatorial optimization.

One promising approach to “beyond von Neumann” computing architectures is to use networks of inherently stochastic units called probabilistic bits (p-bits). Here the authors exploit enthalpic competition among charge, orbital, lattice, and spin degrees of freedom plus natural phase inhomogeneity in a strongly correlated oxide to design a cascade of energy states, between which the system can switch probabilistically. Substrate-induced tunability of the energy landscape yields two distinct modes of voltage-controlled stochastic operation: clocked binary switching between two current states in one sample, and unclocked multibit switching between multiple current regimes in another.

The authors demonstrate an approach for solving an NP-hard problem, based on coupled-oscillator networks implemented with charge-density-wave-condensate devices. Prototype hardware based on -TaS enables room-temperature operation of the network. The oscillator operation relies on hysteresis in I-V characteristics and bistability triggered by applied electrical bias. The nature of the transitions between the charge-density-wave phases creates the potential for low-power operation and compatibility with conventional silicon technology.

Neuromorphic computing promises transformative advances for high-speed, energy-efficient artificial intelligence. This study reports how circuits based on resonant tunneling diode (RTD) neurons can encode information in both the spike rate and spike latency, directly emulating strategies found in biological neurons. Through experiments and numerical studies, the authors show how RTD design parameters influence the spiking dynamics, identifying practical routes toward subnanosecond spike-rate encoding in future neuromorphic hardware.
