Testing Gravity with Cold-Atom Interferometers
G. W. Biedermann, X. Wu, L. Deslauriers +3
We present a horizontal gravity gradiometer atom interferometer for precision gravitational tests. The horizontal configuration is superior for maximizing the inertial signal in th…
Efficient Photoionization-Loading of Trapped Cadmium Ions with Ultrafast Pulses
L. Deslauriers, M. Acton, B. B. Blinov +16
Atomic cadmium ions are loaded into radiofrequency ion traps by photoionization of atoms in a cadmium vapor with ultrafast laser pulses. The photoionization is driven through an in…
Scaling and Suppression of Anomalous Quantum Decoherence in Ion Traps
L. Deslauriers, S. Olmschenk, D. Stick +3
We measure and characterize anomalous motional decoherence of an atomic ion confined in the lowest quantum levels of a novel rf ion trap that features moveable electrodes. The scal…
Near-Perfect Simultaneous Measurement of a Qubit Register
M. Acton, K. -A. Brickman, P. C. Haljan +3
Simultaneous measurement of multiple qubits stored in hyperfine levels of trapped 111Cd+ ions is realized with an intensified charge-coupled device (CCD) imager. A general theory o…
Implementation of Grover's Quantum Search Algorithm in a Scalable System
K. -A. Brickman, P. C. Haljan, P. J. Lee +3
We report the implementation of Grover's quantum search algorithm in the scalable system of trapped atomic ion quantum bits. Any one of four possible states of a two-qubit memory i…
Entanglement of Trapped-Ion Clock States
P. C. Haljan, P. J. Lee, K. -A. Brickman +3
A Mølmer-Sørensen entangling gate is realized for pairs of trapped Cd ions using magnetic-field insensitive "clock" states and an implementation offering reduced sensit…
