A new experimental group using alkaline-earth-like atoms in programmable optical tweezer arrays to improve optical-qubit atomic clocks and develop quantum-enhanced metrology and many-body control; actively building the lab and recruiting students and postdocs. For context, this complements the established paradigm of NV-diamond ensemble magnetometry (Hahn-echo/DEER, nanoscale NMR, T1 relaxometry) operating near pT/âHz sensitivity.
