Precision measurement of the Ca nuclear magnetic moment

R. K. Hanley, D. T. C. Allcock, T. P. Harty +2

We report precision measurements of the nuclear magnetic moment of \textsuperscript{43}Ca\textsuperscript{+}, made by microwave spectroscopy of the 4s S $\left|F=4, M=0…

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…

Magnetic field stabilization system for atomic physics experiments

B. Merkel, K. Thirumalai, J. E. Tarlton +4

Atomic physics experiments commonly use millitesla-scale magnetic fields to provide a quantization axis. As atomic transition frequencies depend on the amplitude of this field, man…

High-fidelity spatial and polarization addressing of Ca-43 qubits using near-field microwave control

D. P. L. Aude Craik, N. M. Linke, M. A. Sepiol +7

Individual addressing of qubits is essential for scalable quantum computation. Spatial addressing allows unlimited numbers of qubits to share the same frequency, whilst enabling ar…
