- Abstract: We present a sequence of driven-dissipative protocols for controlling cold
atoms in tilted optical lattices. These experimentally accessible examples are
templates that demonstrate how dissipation can be used to manipulate quantum
many-body systems. We consider bosonic atoms trapped in a tilted optical
lattice, immersed in a superfluid bath, and excited by coherent Raman lasers.
With these ingredients, we are able to controllably transport atoms in the
lattice and produce self-healing quantum states: a Mott insulator and the
topologically ordered spin-1 AKLT state.

Solid-state spin defects, such as color centers in diamond, are among the most promising candidates for scalable and integrated quantum technologies.
We show that leveraging an ultra-high strained silicon-vacancy center inside a nanodiamond allows us to coherently and efficiently control its electron spin, while mitigating phonon-induced dephasing at liquid helium temperature.
Our work paves the way for future integration of quantum network registers into conventional, well-established photonics and hybrid quantum communication systems.

We show how motional degrees of freedom in optical tweezers can be used as quantum information carriers.
We first implement a species-agnostic cooling mechanism via conversion of motional excitations into erasures.
We then entangle the motion of two atoms in separate tweezers, and utilize this to generate hyper-entanglement.

We report trapping of single ultracold atom in an optical trap that can be continuously tuned from a standard Airy focus to a subwavelength hotspot smaller than the usual Abbe's diffraction limit.
We argue that superoscillatory trapping and continuous potential tuning offer not only a way to generate compact and tenable ensembles of trapped atoms for quantum simulators but will also be useful in single molecule quantum chemistry.
