Recent experiments in trapped-ion quantum information processing at NIST

May 1, 2006
Author(s)
J Chiaverini, Matthew P. Barrett, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, Dietrich G. Leibfried, R Ozeri, T Schaetz, David J. Wineland
Atomic ions confined in segmented trap arrays provide a system for quantum information processing. We report on the execution of two simple quantum algorithms, quantum error correction and the quantum Fourier transform, using this implementation. The

Creation of a six-atom Schrodinger cat state

December 1, 2005

Dietrich G. Leibfried, Emanuel H. Knill, Signe Seidelin, Joseph W. Britton, Brad R. Blakestad, J Chiaverini, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, C. Langer, R Ozeri, Rainer Reichle, David J. Wineland
Among highly entangled states of multiple quantum systems, Schrödinger cat states are particularly useful. Cat states are equal superpositions of two maximally different quantum states. They are a fundamental resource in fault-tolerant quantum computing

Surface-Electrode Architecture for Ion-Trap Quantum Information Processing

September 1, 2005
Author(s)
J Chiaverini, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, John D. Jost, C. Langer, Dietrich G. Leibfried, R Ozeri, David J. Wineland
We investigate a surface-mounted electrode geometry for miniature linear radio frequency Paul ion traps. The electrodes reside in a single plane on a substrate, and the pseudopotential minimum of the trap is located above the substrate at a distance on

Long-Lived Qubit Memory Using Atomic Ions

August 5, 2005
Author(s)
C. Langer, R Ozeri, John D. Jost, J Chiaverini, B. L. DeMarco, A. Ben-Kish, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Rainer Reichle, Till P. Rosenband, Tobias Schaetz, Piet Schmidt, David J. Wineland
We demonstrate experimentally a robust quantum memory using a magnetic-field-independent hyperfine transition in 9Be + atomic ioin qubits at a magnetic field B=0.01194 T. We observe the single physical qubit memory coherence time to be greater than 10

Hyperfine Coherence in the Presence of Spontaneous Photon Scattering

July 15, 2005

R Ozeri, C. Langer, John D. Jost, B. L. DeMarco, A. Ben-Kish, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, Wayne M. Itano, David Hume, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Till P. Rosenband, Piet Schmidt, David J. Wineland
The coherence of hyperfine-state superpositions of a trapped 9Be + ion is experimentally studied in the presence of off-resonant light. It is shown that Rayleigh elastic scattering of photons that does not change state populations also does not affect

Quantum Control, Quantum Information Processing, and Quantum-Limited Metrology With Trapped Ions

David J. Wineland, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Murray D. Barrett, A. Ben-Kish, James C. Bergquist, Brad R. Blakestad, John J. Bollinger, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, B. L. DeMarco, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, M J. Jensen, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, Jeroen Koelemeij, C. Langer, Windell Oskay, R Ozeri, Rainer Reichle, Till P. Rosenband, Tobias Schaetz, Piet Schmidt, Signe Seidelin
We briefly discuss recent experiments on quantum informaiton processing using trapped ions at NIST. A central theme of this work has been to increase our capabilities in terms of quantum computing protocols, but we have also been interested in applying the

Implementation of the semiclassical quantum Fourier transform in a scalable system

One of the most interesting future applications of quantum computers is Shor's factoring algorithm, which provides an exponential speedup compared to known classical algorithms. The crucial final step in Shor's algorithm is the quantum Fourier transform

Enhanced Quantum State Detection Efficiency Through Quantum Information Processing

T Schaetz, Murray D. Barrett, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Joseph W. Britton, J Chiaverini, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, E Knill, Christopher Langer, David J. Wineland
We investigate theoretically and experimentally how quantum state-detection efficiency is improved by the use of quantum information processing (QIP). Experimentally, we encode the state of one 9Be ion qubit with one additional ancilla qubit. By measuring
