Transport quantum logic gates for trapped ions
D. Leibfried, E. Knill, C. Ospelkaus +1
Many efforts are currently underway to build a device capable of large scale quantum information processing (QIP). Whereas QIP has been demonstrated for a few qubits in several sys…
Simplified motional heating rate measurements of trapped ions
R. J. Epstein, S. Seidelin, D. Leibfried +13
We have measured motional heating rates of trapped atomic ions, a factor that can influence multi-ion quantum logic gate fidelities. Two simplified techniques were developed for th…
Fluorescence during Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom
J. H. Wesenberg, R. J. Epstein, D. Leibfried +10
We investigate the temporal dynamics of Doppler cooling of an initially hot single trapped atom in the weak binding regime using a semiclassical approach. We develop an analytical…
Randomized Benchmarking of Quantum Gates
E. Knill, D. Leibfried, R. Reichle +7
A key requirement for scalable quantum computing is that elementary quantum gates can be implemented with sufficiently low error. One method for determining the error behavior of a…
Passive Cooling of a Micromechanical Oscillator with a Resonant Electric Circuit
K. R. Brown, J. Britton, R. J. Epstein +3
We cool the fundamental mode of a miniature cantilever by capacitively coupling it to a driven rf resonant circuit. Cooling results from the rf capacitive force, which is phase shi…
