We demonstrate a logical neutral atom architecture that integrates atom motion with in-place entanglement to achieve lower overheads than entangling-zone approaches. Using a 114-qubit device, we perform three proof-of-principle logical-qubit experiments. First, we implement a pre-compiled, non-scalable variant of Shor’s algorithm, observing improved logical-over-physical performance, including with loss correction and leakage detection, achieving up to a 2× reduction in TVD. Second, we construct constant-depth logical CX ladders; on current hardware these execute with serial entangling operations, yet still yield 2-4× lower error for 8 and 12 logical qubits. Third, we prepare the [[16,4,4]] code and perform single-round decoding with post-processed error correction, achieving 8× improvement on logical vs physical. These results demonstrate how combining motion with in-place entanglement offers lower overhead than entangling-zone approaches.
