  We propose to integrate dark-state based localization techniques into a
neutral atom quantum computing architecture and numerically investigate two
specific schemes. The first scheme implements state-selective projective
measurement by scattering photons from a specific qubit with very little cross
talk on the other atoms in the ensemble. The second scheme performs a
single-qubit phase gate on the target atom with an incoherent spontaneous
emission probability as low as 0.01. Our numerical simulations in rubidium (Rb)
atoms show that for both of these schemes a spatial resolution at the level of
tens of nanometers using near-infrared light can be achieved with
experimentally realistic parameters.
