Scalable arrays of RF Paul traps in degenerate Si
J. Britton, D. Leibfried, J. Beall +3
We report techniques for the fabrication of multi-zone linear RF Paul traps that exploit the machinability and electrical conductivity of degenerate silicon. The approach was teste…
Simplified motional heating rate measurements of trapped ions
R. J. Epstein, S. Seidelin, D. Leibfried +13
We have measured motional heating rates of trapped atomic ions, a factor that can influence multi-ion quantum logic gate fidelities. Two simplified techniques were developed for th…
Fluorescence during Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom
J. H. Wesenberg, R. J. Epstein, D. Leibfried +10
We investigate the temporal dynamics of Doppler cooling of an initially hot single trapped atom in the weak binding regime using a semiclassical approach. We develop an analytical…
Randomized Benchmarking of Quantum Gates
E. Knill, D. Leibfried, R. Reichle +7
A key requirement for scalable quantum computing is that elementary quantum gates can be implemented with sufficiently low error. One method for determining the error behavior of a…
Errors in trapped-ion quantum gates due to spontaneous photon scattering
R. Ozeri, W. M. Itano, R. B. Blakestad +9
We analyze the error in trapped-ion, hyperfine qubit, quantum gates due to spontaneous scattering of photons from the gate laser beams. We investigate single-qubit rotations that a…
Transport dynamics of single ions in segmented microstructured Paul trap arrays
R. Reichle, D. Leibfried, R. B. Blakestad +7
It was recently proposed to use small groups of trapped ions as qubit carriers in miniaturized electrode arrays that comprise a large number of individual trapping zones, between w…
