demonstrate entanglement generation
between our atoms by creating Bell Pairs
(a state of two maximally entangled

when we drive them with a laser. Next,
we will use our ability to generate
entanglement to create and measure
more exotic entangled states, such as
‘‘cluster states,’’ which promise to be
useful for measurement-based quantum
computation. There will be other
quantum phenomena we will
investigate along the way, such as using
our entangled states for electric field
measurements, but eventually we will
