Coherent Quantum State Manipulation of Trapped Atomic Ions

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, C Monroe, D M. Meekhof, B E. King, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Wayne M. Itano, James C. Bergquist, D J. Berkeland, John J. Bollinger, J D. Miller
A single, laser-cooled, trapped 9Be+ ion is used to investigate methods of coherent quantum-state synthesis. We create and characterize nonclassical states of motion including "Schrödinger- cat" states. A fundamental quantum logic gate is realized using

Experimental Issues in Coherent Quantum-State Manipulation of Trapped Atomic Ions,

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, C Monroe, Wayne M. Itano, Dietrich G. Leibfried, B E. King, D M. Meekhof
Methods for, and limitations to, the generation of entangled states of trapped atomic ions are examined. As much as possible, state manipulations are described in terms of quantum logic operations since the conditional dynamics implicit in quantum logic is

Experimental Primer on the Trapped Ion Quantum Computer,

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, C Monroe, Wayne M. Itano, B E. King, Dietrich G. Leibfried, D M. Meekhof, C J. Myatt, Chris S. Wood
The development of a quantum computer based on a system of trapped atomic ions is described, following the proposal of Cirac and Zoller. Initial results on a two-bit quantum logic gate are presented, and select experimental issues in scaling the system to

Quantum Logic with a Few Trapped Ions

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
C Monroe, Wayne M. Itano, D Kielpinski, B E. King, Dietrich Leibfried, C J. Myatt, Q A. Turchette, David J. Wineland, Chris S. Wood
Small laser-cooled crystals of atomic ions have attracted considerable interest in the last several years for their possible application toward quantum computation. This paper considers quantum logic schemes for small numbers of ions in the context of

Trapped Ions, Entanglement, and Quantum Computing, ed. by B.L. Fearey

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
C J. Myatt, B E. King, D Kielpinski, Dietrich Leibfried, Q A. Turchette, Chris S. Wood, Wayne M. Itano, C Monroe, David J. Wineland
A miniature, elliptcal ring rf (Paul) ion trap has been used in recent experiments toward realizing a quantum computer in a trapped ion system. With the combination of small spatial dimensions and high rf drive potentials, around 500 V amplitude, we have

Trapped-Ion Quantum Simulator,

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, C Monroe, Wayne M. Itano, B E. King, Dietrich G. Leibfried, C J. Myatt, Chris S. Wood
Coherent manipulations involving the quantized motional and internal states of a single trapped ion can be used to simulate the dynamics of other systems. We consider some examples, including the action of a Mach Zehnder interferometer which uses entangled

Quantum Harmonic Oscillator State Synthesis and Analysis

January 1, 1997
Author(s)
Wayne M. Itano, C R. Monroe, D M. Meekhof, Dietrich G. Leibfried, B E. King, David J. Wineland
We laser-cool single beryllium ions in a Paul trap to the ground (n = 0) quantum harmonic oscillator state with greater than 90% probability. From this starting point, we can put the atom into various quantum states of motion by application of optical and

Simplified Quantum Logic with Trapped Ions

January 1, 1997
Author(s)
C Monroe, Dietrich Leibfried, B E. King, D M. Meekhof, Wayne M. Itano, David J. Wineland
We describe a simplified scheme for quantum logic with a collection of laser-cooled trapped atomic ions. Building on the scheme of Cirac and Zoller, we show how the fundamental controlled- NOT gate between a collective mode of ion motion and the internal

Entangled States of Atomic Ions for Quantum Metrology and Computation

January 1, 1996
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, C Monroe, D M. Meekhof, B E. King, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Wayne M. Itano, James C. Bergquist, D J. Berkeland, John J. Bollinger, J D. Miller
A single trapped 9Be+ ion is used to investigate Jaynes-Cummings dynamics for a two-level atomic system coupled to harmonic atomic motion. We create and investigate nonclassical states of motion including "Schrödinger-cat" states. A fundamental quantum

Experimental Determination of the Motional Quantum State of a Trapped Atom

January 1, 1996
Author(s)
Dietrich G. Leibfried, D M. Meekhof, B E. King, C Monroe, Wayne M. Itano, David J. Wineland
We reconstruct the density matrices and Wigner functions for various quantum states of motion of a harmonically bound 9Be+ ion. We apply coherent displacements of different amplitudes and phases to the input state and measure the number state populations
