Resolved-sideband Micromotion Sensing in Yb on the 935 nm Repump Transition
C. J. B. Goham, J. W. Britton
Ions displaced from the potential minimum in a RF Paul trap exhibit excess micromotion. A host of well-established techniques are routinely used to sense (and null) this excess mot…
A stroboscopic approach to trapped-ion quantum information processing with squeezed phonons
Wenchao Ge, Brian C. Sawyer, Joseph W. Britton +3
In trapped-ion quantum information processing, interactions between spins (qubits) are mediated by collective modes of motion of an ion crystal. While there are many different expe…
Trapped Ion Quantum Information Processing with Squeezed Phonons
Wenchao Ge, Brian Sawyer, Joe Britton +3
Trapped ions offer a pristine platform for quantum computation and simulation, but improving their coherence remains a crucial challenge. Here, we propose and analyze a new strateg…
Amplitude sensing below the zero-point fluctuations with a two-dimensional trapped-ion mechanical oscillator
K. A. Gilmore, J. G. Bohnet, B. C. Sawyer +2
We present a technique to measure the amplitude of a center-of-mass (COM) motion of a two-dimensional ion crystal of 100 ions. By sensing motion at frequencies far from the C…
Perpendicular laser cooling with a rotating wall potential in a Penning trap
Steven B. Torrisi, Joseph W. Britton, Justin G. Bohnet +1
We investigate the impact of a rotating wall potential on perpendicular laser cooling in a Penning ion trap. By including energy exchange with the rotating wall, we extend previous…
Quantum spin dynamics and entanglement generation with hundreds of trapped ions
Justin G. Bohnet, Brian C. Sawyer, Joseph W. Britton +4
Quantum simulation of spin models can provide insight into complex problems that are difficult or impossible to study with classical computers. Trapped ions are an established plat…
