Trapped-ion two-qubit gates with >99.99% fidelity without ground-state cooling

A. C. Hughes, R. Srinivas, C. M. Löschnauer +6

We introduce the 'smooth gate', an entangling method for trapped-ion qubits where residual spin-motion entanglement errors are adiabatically eliminated by ramping the gate detuning…

Subspace Leakage Error Randomized Benchmarking of Mølmer-Sørensen Gates

R. T. Sutherland, A. C. Hughes, J. P. Marceaux +3

We demonstrate a new technique that adapts single-qubit randomized benchmarking to two-qubit Mølmer-Sørensen gates. We use the controllable gate phase to generate Cliffords that ac…

Comparison of trapped-ion entangling gate mechanisms for mixed species

V. M. Schäfer, A. C. Hughes, O. Bazavan +4

Entangling gates are an essential capability of quantum computers. There are different methods for implementing two-qubit gates, with respective advantages and disadvantages. We in…

Benchmarking a high-fidelity mixed-species entangling gate

A. C. Hughes, V. M. Schäfer, K. Thirumalai +4

We implement a two-qubit logic gate between a hyperfine qubit and a Zeeman qubit. For this pair of ion species, the S--P optical trans…

Probing Qubit Memory Errors at the Part-per-Million Level

M. A. Sepiol, A. C. Hughes, J. E. Tarlton +7

Robust qubit memory is essential for quantum computing, both for near-term devices operating without error correction, and for the long-term goal of a fault-tolerant processor. We…
