Abstract

Abstract— Overview of some recent research advancements in ultracold Rydberg atoms with laser-cooled trapped ions control is presented. We show also an effective way to create multi-q-bit gates on such a system. We demonstrate how to implement a gate similar to C-PHASE and discuss the prospects of atom-ion coupling approach.

We will focus here in particular on the engineering the open system dynamics of many particles by a controlled coupling to an environment. We will discuss both the basic theoretical concepts as well as their physical implementation with cold Rydberg atoms and ions.We conclude with an outlook on prospects of quantum information processing of hybrid atomic solid state systems, in particular the coupling of cold atomic clouds to nanomechancial oscillators.

A new platform for atom-ion hybrid experiments

Carlo Sias, Lucia Duca, Elia Perego +2 more

Ultracold atoms and trapped ions are among the most formidable sources of coherent matter available in a laboratory. In a hybrid quantum system of atoms and ions, ultracold atoms and trapped ions are combined in a single experimental apparatus, thus realizing an innovative platform to experimentally investigate open problems of quantum physics from a new standpoint. An atom-ion hybrid system not only brings together the advantages of each single physical system, but moreover gives rise to atom-ion interactions, which are two orders of magnitude longer-ranged than atom-atom interactions. Despite a strong interest in atom-ion experiments in recent years, atom-ion systems have not yet been brought to an s-wave scattering regime in which atoms and ions experience a long-living coherent evolution. I will report on the advancements in the realization of an experimental apparatus in which a single trapped Barium ion will be immersed into an ultracold gas of fermionic Lithium. In particular, I will report on the a number of technical advancements that we have realized in order to achieve the highest possible level of control over the atom-ion quantum mixture. These include a new ion trap for creating confining potentials for the ions with a combination of optical and electric fields [1], and a high-finesse optical cavity for confining and rapidly cool neutral atoms via unconventional sideband cooling [2]. Notably, this apparatus was recently used to successfully trap Ba+ ions, thus realizing the first ion trapping experiment in Italy. [1] E. Perego, L. Duca, C. Sias Appl. Sci. 10, 2222 (2020) [2] F.

A Quantum Interface Between Neutral-Atoms and Trapped-Ions Quantum Registers

Ayelet Hasson, Gal Dekel, Ehud Shahar +2 more

Hybrid quantum systems combining neutral atoms and trapped ions offer the prospect of integrating the scalability of atom arrays with the high-fidelity control available in trapped-ion platforms. Here we propose and analyze a quantum interface between individually trapped neutral atoms and a trapped-ion crystal. In our scheme, a neutral 88Sr atom trapped in optical tweezers interacts with a small 88Sr+ ion crystal, and by exciting the atom to a Rydberg state, the atom-ion polarization interaction is strongly enhanced, resulting in a state-dependent modification of the ions' collective motional modes. We show that this shift enables conditional control of a MS gate, allowing the neutral atom to act as a control qubit for an entangling operation between two ions. We investigate the feasibility of the scheme by analyzing Rydberg trapping in the combined optical tweezers and Paul trap potentials, identifying negative-polarizability Rydberg states as particularly favorable for stable confinement. We further evaluate the relevant trapping conditions, Rydberg lifetimes, and coherence requirements, and show that the proposed interface is compatible with realistic experimental parameters. These results establish a practical route toward deterministic atom-ion hybrid quantum gates and quantum interfaces.

Ion-mediated interaction and controlled-phase-gate operation between two atomic qubits

Subhra Mudli, Subhanka Mal, Sinchan Snigdha Rej +2 more

We propose a toy model of ion-atom hybrid quantum system for quantum computing. We show that when two atomic qubits in two largely separated optical tweezers interact with a single trapped ion through Rydberg excitation of the atoms, there exists an ion-mediated atom-atom interaction which exceeds the direct interatomic interaction at large separation. We employ this mediated interaction to demonstrate a two-qubit control phase-gate operation with 97% fidelity by addressing the individual atomic qubits with lasers.

A tutorial review: Cold trapped ions as quantum information processors

Marek Šašura, Vladimír Bužek

In this tutorial we review the physical implementation of quantum computing using a system of cold trapped ions. We discuss systematically all the aspects for making the implementation possible. Firstly, we go through the loading and confining of atomic ions in the linear Paul trap, then we describe the collective vibrational motion of trapped ions. Further, we discuss interactions of the ions with a laser beam. We treat the interactions in the travelling-wave and standing-wave configuration for dipole and quadrupole transitions. We review different types of laser cooling techniques associated with trapped ions. We address Doppler cooling, sideband cooling in and beyond the Lamb-Dicke limit, sympathetic cooling and laser cooling using electromagnetically induced transparency. After that we discuss the problem of state detection using the electron shelving method. Then quantum gates are described. We introduce single-qubit rotations, two-qubit controlled-NOT and multi-qubit controlled-NOT gates. We also comment on more advanced multi-qubit logic gates. We describe how quantum logic networks may be used for the synthesis of arbitrary pure quantum states. Finally, we discuss the speed of quantum gates and we also give some numerical estimations for them. A discussion of dynamics on off-resonant transitions associated with a qualitative estimation of the weak coupling regime and of the Lamb-Dicke regime is included in the Appendix.
