Quantum Teleportation with Atomic Qubits

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
J Chiaverini, T Schaetz, Joseph W. Britton, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel Knill, C. Langer, Dietrich Leibfried, R Ozeri, David J. Wineland

Trapped-Ion Quantum Logic Gates Based on Oscillating Magnetic Fields

August 29, 2008
Author(s)
Christian Ospelkaus, Christopher Langer, Jason Amini, Kenton R. Brown, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland
Oscillating magnetic fields and field gradients can be used to implement single-qubit rotations and entangling multi-qubit quantum gates for trapped-ion quantum information processing (QIP). With fields generated by currents in microfabricated surface

Fluorescence during Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom

November 26, 2007
Author(s)
Janus Wesenberg, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, Ryan Epstein, Jonathan Home, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, R. Ozeri, Signe Seidelin, David J. Wineland
We investigate the temporal dynamics of Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom in the weak binding regime using a semi-classical model. We develop an analytical model for the simplest case of a single vibrational mode for a harmonic trap, and show how

Passive Cooling of a Micromechanical Oscillator with a Resonant Electric Circuit

September 28, 2007
Author(s)
Kenton R. Brown, Joseph W. Britton, Ryan Epstein, John Chiaverini, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland
Currently there is considerable interest in the cooling of macroscopic mechanical oscillators, as strong cooling may allow one to reach the quantum regime of such oscillators. Recent advances in microfabrication and cooling techniques have brought this

Transport quantum logic gates for trapped ions

September 21, 2007
Author(s)
Dietrich G. Leibfried, Emanuel H. Knill, Christian Ospelkaus, David J. Wineland
Many efforts are currently underway to build a device capable of large scale quantum information processing (QIP). While QIP has been demonstrated for a few qubits in several systems, severe difficulties have to be overcome in order to construct a large

Simplified motional heating rate measurements of trapped ions

September 19, 2007
Author(s)
Ryan Epstein, Signe Seidelin, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Janus Wesenberg, John J. Bollinger, Jason Amini, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, Jonathan Home, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, R. Ozeri, Nobuyasu Shiga, David J. Wineland
We measure motional heating rates of trapped atomic ions, a factor that influences multi-ion quantum logic gate fidelities. Two simplified techniques are developed for this purpose: one relies on Raman sideband detection implemented with a single laser

Towards scaling up trapped ion quantum information processing

June 19, 2007
Author(s)
Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland, Brad R. Blakestad, John J. Bollinger, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, Ryan Epstein, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, R Ozeri, Rainer Reichle, Signe Seidelin, Nobuyasu Shiga, Janus Wesenberg
Recent theoretical advances have identifed several computational algorithms that can be implemented utilizing quantum information processing (QIP), which gives an exponential speedup over the corresponding (known) algorithms on conventional computers. QIP

Errors in trapped-ion quantum gates due to spontaneous photon scattering

April 27, 2007
Author(s)
R Ozeri, Wayne M. Itano, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, John D. Jost, C. Langer, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Rainer Reichle, Signe Seidelin, Janus Wesenberg, David J. Wineland
We analyze the error in trapped-ion, hyperfine qubit, quantum gates due to spontaneous scattering of photons from the gate laser beams. We investigate the error in single-ion-qubit rotations that are based on stimulated Raman transitions and in two-ion

Experimental purification of two-atom entanglement

Author(s)
Rainer Reichle, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Emanuel H. Knill, Joseph W. Britton, Brad R. Blakestad, John D. Jost, C. Langer, R Ozeri, Signe Seidelin, David J. Wineland
Entanglement is one of the most counterintuitive features of quantum mechanics. It is a necessary resource for quantum communication and quantum information processing. Entanglement established between different locations enables private communication and

Transport dynamics of single ions in segmented microstructured Paul trap arrays

Author(s)
Rainer Reichle, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, R Ozeri, Signe Seidelin, David J. Wineland
It was recently proposed to use small groups of trapped ions as qubit carriers in miniaturized electrode arrays that comprise a large number of individual trapping zones, between which ions could be moved. This approach might be scalable for quantum

July 16, 2006
Author(s)
David J. Wineland, Dietrich G. Leibfried, James C. Bergquist, Brad R. Blakestad, John J. Bollinger, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, Ryan Epstein, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, Jeroen Koelemeij, C. Langer, R Ozeri, Rainer Reichle, Till P. Rosenband, Tobias Schaetz, Piet Schmidt, Signe Seidelin, Nobuyasu Shiga, Janus Wesenberg
The basic requirements for quantum computing and quantum simulation (Single- and multi-qubit gates, long memor times, etc.)have been demonstrated in separate experiments on trapped ions. Construction of a large-scale information processor will require
