Simplified Quantum Logic with Trapped Ions
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe a simplified scheme for quantum logic with a collection of laser-cooled trapped atomic ions. Building on the scheme of Cirac and Zoller, we show how the fundamental controlled-NOT gate between a collective mode of ion motion and the internal states of a single ion can be reduced to a single laser pulse, and the need for a third auxiliary internal electronic state can be eliminated. @S1050-2947~97!50904-8#

We have measured motional heating rates of trapped atomic ions, a factor that can influence multi-ion quantum logic gate fidelities. Two simplified techniques were developed for this purpose: one relies on Raman sideband detection implemented with a single laser source, while the second is even simpler and is based on time-resolved fluorescence detection during Doppler recooling. We applied the...
متن کاملSympathetic cooling of trapped ions for quantum logic
One limit to the fidelity of quantum logic operations on trapped ions arises from heating of the ions’ collective modes of motion. Sympathetic cooling of the ions during the logic operations may eliminate this source of errors. We discuss the benefits and drawbacks of this proposal, and describe possible experimental implementations. We also present an overview of trapped-ion dynamics in this s...
متن کامل1 Quantum State Manipulation Of Trapped Atomic Ions
A single laser-cooled and trapped Be ion is used to investigate methods of coherent 9 + quantum-state synthesis and quantum logic. We create and characterize nonclassical states of motion including " Schrödinger-cat " states. A fundamental quantum logic gate is realized which uses two states of the quantized ion motion and two ion internal states as qubits. We explore some of the applications f...
متن کاملToolbox for Microwave-driven Quantum Logic with Trapped Ions
Trapped atomic ions are a well-advanced physical system for investigating fundamental questions of quantum physics and for quantum information science and its applications. When contemplating the scalability of trapped ions for quantum information science one notes that the use of laser light for coherent operations gives rise to technical and also physical issues that can be remedied by replac...
متن کاملQuantum Logic with a Few Trapped Ions
Small laser-cooled crystals of atomic ions have attracted considerable interest in the last several years for their possible application toward quantum computation. This paper considers quantum logic schemes for small numbers of ions in the context of recent experiments at NIST.
