Microwave-driven same-species sympathetic cooling for trapped ions

M. C. Smith, E. Vandrey, A. D. Leu +5

Sympathetic cooling of data qubits by coolant ions is an essential technique for trapped-ion quantum computing. Conventionally a second ion species is used, requiring additional la…

Quantum Nonlocal Games on Graph Ensembles

Joshua Tucker, Chris Weeks, Peter Drmota +11

Quantum entanglement is one of the most striking discoveries in all of science. This effect allows, for instance, two spatially separated agents to coordinate their actions, withou…

Single-qubit gates with errors at the level

M. C. Smith, A. D. Leu, K. Miyanishi +2

We report the achievement of single-qubit gates with sub-part-per-million error rates, in a trapped-ion Ca hyperfine clock qubit. We explore the speed/fidelity trade-o…

Polarisation-insensitive state preparation for trapped-ion hyperfine qubits

A. D. Leu, M. C. Smith, M. F. Gely +1

Quantum state preparation for trapped-ion qubits often relies on high-quality circularly-polarised light, which may be difficult to achieve with chip-based integrated optics techno…

Robust and fast microwave-driven quantum logic for trapped-ion qubits

M. A. Weber, M. F. Gely, R. K. Hanley +5

Microwave-driven logic is a promising alternative to laser control in scaling trapped-ion based quantum processors. However, such electronic gates have yet to match the speed offer…

In-situ characterization of qubit drive-phase distortions

M. F. Gely, J. M. Litarowicz, A. D. Leu +1

Reducing errors in quantum gates is critical to the development of quantum computers. To do so, any distortions in the control signals should be identified, however, conventional t…

Individually-addressed quantum gate interactions using dynamical decoupling

M. C. Smith, A. D. Leu, M. F. Gely +1

A leading approach to implementing small-scale quantum computers has been to use laser beams, focused to micron spot sizes, to address and entangle trapped ions in a linear crystal…

Cryogenic ion trap system for high-fidelity near-field microwave-driven quantum logic

M. A. Weber, C. Löschnauer, J. Wolf +6

We report the design, fabrication, and characterization of a cryogenic ion trap system for the implementation of quantum logic driven by near-field microwaves. The trap incorporate…
