Microwave quantum logic gates for trapped ions

Abstract: Control over physical systems at the quantum level is a goal shared by scientists in fields as diverse as metrology, information processing, simulation and chemistry. For trapped atomic ions, the quantized motional and internal degrees of freedom can be coherently manipulated with laser light.1, 2 Similar control is difficult to achieve with radio frequency or microwave radiation because the essential coupling between internal degrees of freedom and motion requires significant field changes over the extent of … Show more

“…As the wavelength of the spin-flip transition for the (anti-)proton is rather long compared to the spatial extent of its motion, special measures need to be taken in order to be able to jointly (de-)excite motional and internal degrees of freedom of the particle. Similar protocols have been implemented with atomic ions in the context of quantum logic operations using microwave radiation [16,17] and have been adapted for the cylindrical Penning trap geometry of the present project.…”

“…A promising tool for the control and manipulation of cold molecules is the molecule chip [12][13][14], the molecular analog of the atom chip [15][16][17][18] or ion chip [19,20]. Using the molecule chip, we have recently demonstrated the integrated on-chip time-resolved spatial imaging of cold molecules in a manner that is both quantum state selective and generally applicable [14].…”
