Magic trapping of a Rydberg ion with a diminished static polarizability
Fabian Pokorny, Chi Zhang, Gerard Higgins +1
Highly excited Rydberg states are usually extremely polarizable and exceedingly sensitive to electric fields. Because of this Rydberg ions confined in electric fields have state-de…
Sub-microsecond entangling gate between trapped ions via Rydberg interaction
Chi Zhang, Fabian Pokorny, Weibin Li +4
Generating quantum entanglement in large systems on time scales much shorter than the coherence time is key to powerful quantum simulation and computation. Trapped ions are among t…
Highly-polarizable ion in a Paul trap
Gerard Higgins, Fabian Pokorny, Chi Zhang +1
Usually the influence of the quadratic Stark effect on an ion's trapping potential is minuscule and only needs to be considered in atomic clock experiments. In this work we excite…
Tracking the dynamics of an ideal quantum measurement
Fabian Pokorny, Chi Zhang, Gerard Higgins +3
The existence of ideal quantum measurements is one of the fundamental predictions of quantum mechanics. In theory the measurement projects onto the eigenbasis of the measurement ob…
Coherent control of a single trapped Rydberg ion
Gerard Higgins, Fabian Pokorny, Chi Zhang +2
Trapped Rydberg ions are a promising novel approach to quantum computing and simulations. They are envisaged to combine the exquisite control of trapped ion qubits with the fast tw…
