Study of decoherence in radial local phonon hopping within trapped-ion string

Yu-Xuan Chen, Takumi Yuri, Kenji Toyoda

We systematically investigate local phonon hopping in the radial direction of a linear trapped-ion string. We measure the decay of hopping as a function of key trap parameters and…

Site-dependent control of polaritons in the Jaynes Cummings Hubbard model with trapped ions

Silpa Muralidharan, Kenji Toyoda

We demonstrate the site-dependent control of polaritons in the Jaynes Cummings Hubbard (JCH) model with trapped ions. In a linear ion crystal under illumination by optical beams ne…

Coherent control of a local phonon in trapped ions using dynamical decoupling

Ryutaro Ohira, Shota Kume, Kenji Toyoda

In this paper, we present a dynamical decoupling (DD) technique to coherently control the dynamics of a single local phonon in trapped ions. A 2 rotation at a motional sideband…

Evaluating states in trapped ions with local correlation between internal and motional degrees of freedom

Silpa Muralidharan, Ryutaro Ohira, Shota Kume +1

We propose and demonstrate a scalable scheme for the simultaneous determination of internal and motional states in trapped ions with single-site resolution. The scheme is applied t…

Polariton blockade in the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model with trapped ions

Ryutaro Ohira, Shota Kume, Hiroki Takahashi +1

We have experimentally observed the dynamics of a single polariton and two polaritons in a two-ion chain. By driving two trapped ions at a motional blue-sideband transition, we rea…

Blockade of phonon hopping in trapped ions in the presence of multiple local phonons

Ryutaro Ohira, Shota Kume, Kyoichi Takayama +3

Driving an ion at a motional sideband transition induces the Jaynes--Cummings (JC) interaction. This JC interaction creates an anharmonic ladder of JC eigenstates, resulting in the…

Phonon-number-resolving Detection of Multiple Local Phonon Modes in Trapped Ions

Ryutaro Ohira, Takashi Mukaiyama, Kenji Toyoda

We propose and demonstrate phonon-number-resolving detection of the multiple local phonon modes in a trapped-ion chain. To mitigate the effect of phonon hopping during the detectio…

Quantum walks of a phonon in trapped ions

Masaya Tamura, Takashi Mukaiyama, Kenji Toyoda

Propagation and interference of quantum-mechanical particles comprise an important part of elementary processes in quantum physics, and their essence can be modeled using a quantum…

Breaking rotational symmetry in a trapped-ion quantum tunneling rotor

Ryutaro Ohira, Takashi Mukaiyama, Kenji Toyoda

A trapped-ion quantum tunneling rotor (QTR) is in a quantum superposition of two different Wigner crystal orientations. In a QTR system, quantum tunneling drives the coherent trans…

Aharonov-Bohm effect in the tunnelling of a quantum rotor in a linear Paul trap

Atshushi Noguchi, Yutaka Shikano, Kenji Toyoda +1

Quantum tunnelling is a common fundamental quantum-mechanical phenomenon that originates from the wave-like characteristics of quantum particles. Although the quantum-tunnelling ef…

Experimental realization of a quantum phase transition of polaritonic excitations

Kenji Toyoda, Yuta Matsuno, Atsushi Noguchi +2

We report an experimental realization of the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard (JCH) model using the internal and radial phonon states of two trapped ions. An adiabatic transfer correspondin…

Generation of Dicke States with Phonon-Mediated Multi-level Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage

Atsushi Noguchi, Kenji Toyoda, Shinji Urabe

We generate half-excited symmetric Dicke states of two and four ions. We use multi-level stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) whose intermediate states are phonon Fock state…

Generation of a spin-squeezed state with trapped ions using a dressing field

Atsushi Noguchi, Kenji Toyoda, Shinji Urabe

We propose a method for generating a spin-squeezed state that is a symmetric Dicke state, with trapped ions using only global access. The eigenstates of the ions under a strong dre…

Generation of a decoherence-free entangled state using a radio frequency dressed state

Atsushi Noguchi, Shinsuke Haze, Kenji Toyoda +1

We propose the generation of entangled states with trapped calcium ions using a combination of an rf dressed state and a spin dependent force. Using this method, a decoherence-free…
