Efficient qubit detection using alkali earth metal ions and a double STIRAP process
Ditte Møller, Jens L. Sørensen, Jakob B. Thomsen +1
We present a scheme for robust and efficient projection measurement of a qubit consisting of the two magnetic sublevels in the electronic ground state of alkali earth metal ions. T…
Doppler cooling of calcium ions using a dipole-forbidden transition
R. J. Hendricks, J. L. Sørensen, C. Champenois +2
Doppler cooling of calcium ions has been experimentally demonstrated using the S1/2 to D5/2 dipole-forbidden transition. Scattering forces and fluorescence levels a factor of 5 sma…
An all-optical ion-loading technique for scalable microtrap architectures
R. J. Hendricks, D. M. Grant, P. F. Herskind +2
An experimental demonstration of a novel all-optical technique for loading ion traps, that has particular application to microtrap architectures, is presented. The technique is bas…
