Angular Momentum Coupling and Rabi Frequencies for Simple Atomic Transitions
B. E. King
The Rabi frequency (coupling strength) of an electric-dipole transition is an important experimental parameter in laser-cooling and other atomic physics experiments. Though the rel…
Heating of trapped ions from the quantum ground state
Q. A. Turchette, D. Kielpinski, B. E. King +9
We have investigated motional heating of laser-cooled 9Be+ ions held in radio-frequency (Paul) traps. We have measured heating rates in a variety of traps with different geometries…
Quantum Logic Using Sympathetically Cooled Ions
D. Kielpinski, B. E. King, C. J. Myatt +6
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…
Quantum Computation, Spectroscopy of Trapped Ions, and Schrodinger's Cat
D. J. Wineland, C. Monroe, W. M. Itano +5
We summarize efforts at NIST to implement quantum computation using trapped ions, based on a scheme proposed by J.I. Cirac and P. Zoller (Innsbruck University). The use of quantum…
Deterministic entanglement of two trapped ions
Q. A. Turchette, C. S. Wood, B. E. King +5
We have prepared the internal states of two trapped ions in both the Bell-like singlet and triplet entangled states. In contrast to all other experiments with entangled states of e…
Cooling the Collective Motion of Trapped Ions to Initialize a Quantum Register
B. E. King, C. S. Wood, C. J. Myatt +5
We report preparation in the ground state of collective modes of motion of two trapped 9Be+ ions. This is a crucial step towards realizing quantum logic gates which can entangle th…
