Progress Toward a 171Yb Neutral Atom Quantum Processor with AI Assisted Laser Control

We present recent progress toward a scalable neutral atom quantum computing platform based on 171Yb, building on a stabilized laser system and optical tweezer array. Our work focuses on improving experimental reliability across multiple layers of the system, from laser operation to fluorescence imaging and array preparation. We demonstrate how data-driven approaches can assist robust laser stabilization under realistic operating conditions and how information extracted from experimental measurements can be incorporated at the system level. Together, these results highlight a practical pathway for integrating data-driven techniques into a 171Yb neutral atom platform to enhance reliability and scalability in near-term quantum experiments.
