Arrays of individual atoms trapped in optical tweezers have emerged as an attractive architecture for quantum computation and simulation. By harnessing controllable inter-atomic interactions via the Rydberg states of atoms, this architecture can be used to perform high-fidelity quantum gate operations, and to simulate quantum many-body systems.

In this talk, I will give a brief introduction on this architecture, and review the rapid progress during the past few years, together with current challenges.
