Dissipative preparation of W states in trapped ion systems

Abstract

We present protocols for dissipative entanglement of three trapped-ion qubits and discuss a scheme that uses sympathetic cooling as the dissipation mechanism. This scheme relies on tailored destructive interference to generate any one of six entangled W states in a three-ion qubit space. Using a beryllium-magnesium ion crystal as an example system, we theoretically investigate the protocol's performance and the effects of likely error sources, including thermal secular motion of the ion crystal, calibration imperfections, and spontaneous photon scattering. We estimate that a fidelity of $\sim$ 98 % may be achieved in typical trapped ion experiments with $\sim$ 1 ms interaction time. These protocols avoid timescale hierarchies for faster preparation of entangled states.
