Topological Qubits with Majorana Fermions in Trapped Ions
A. Mezzacapo, J. Casanova, L. Lamata +1
We propose a method of encoding a topologically-protected qubit using Majorana fermions in a trapped-ion chain. This qubit is protected against major sources of decoherence, while…
Quantum Simulation of Interacting Fermion Lattice Models in Trapped Ions
J. Casanova, A. Mezzacapo, L. Lamata +1
We propose a method of simulating efficiently many-body interacting fermion lattice models in trapped ions, including highly nonlinear interactions in arbitrary spatial dimensions…
The nonrelativistic limit of the Majorana equation and its simulation in trapped ions
L. Lamata, J. Casanova, I. L. Egusquiza +1
We analyze the Majorana equation in the limit where the particle is at rest. We show that several counterintuitive features, absent in the rest limit of the Dirac equation, do appe…
Quantum Simulation of Quantum Field Theories in Trapped Ions
J. Casanova, L. Lamata, I. L. Egusquiza +4
We propose the quantum simulation of a fermion and an antifermion field modes interacting via a bosonic field mode, and present a possible implementation with two trapped ions. Thi…
Relativistic quantum mechanics with trapped ions
L. Lamata, J. Casanova, R. Gerritsma +3
We consider the quantum simulation of relativistic quantum mechanics, as described by the Dirac equation and classical potentials, in trapped-ion systems. We concentrate on three p…
Ion crystal transducer for strong coupling between single ions and single photons
L. Lamata, D. R. Leibrandt, I. L. Chuang +4
A new approach for realization of a quantum interface between single photons and single ions in an ion crystal is proposed and analyzed. In our approach the coupling between a sing…
