We introduce the 'smooth gate', an entangling method for trapped-ion qubits where residual spin-motion entanglement errors are adiabatically eliminated by ramping the gate detuning. We demonstrate electronically controlled two-qubit gates…
We explore the quantum-classical crossover of two coupled, identical, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) rings. The motivation for this work is based on a series of recent papers. In ~[1] we showed that the entanglement…
Storage lifetime and capacity are two important factors to characterize the performance of a quantum memory. Here we report the stable trapping of above 200 ions in a cryogenic setup, and demonstrate the combination of the multi-qubit…
The evolution of a quantum system comprises two fundamental processes--continuous unitary dynamics and stochastic measurement-induced jumps. The latter are often viewed as a source of decoherence. Can two histories of such an evolution,…
We develop a general theoretical framework for measurement protocols employing statistical correlations of randomized measurements. We focus on locally randomized measurements implemented with local random unitaries in quantum lattice…
We consider a bivariate process $X_t=(X^1_t,X^2_t)$, which is observed on a finite time interval $[0,T]$ at discrete times $0,\Delta_n,2\Delta_n,....$ Assuming that its two components $X^1$ and $X^2$ have jumps on $[0,T]$, we derive tests…
A quantum simulator is a well controlled quantum system that can simulate the behavior of another quantum system which may require exponentially large classical computing resources to understand otherwise. In the 1980s, Feynman proposed the…
We study ultracold collisions of ions with neutral atoms in traps. Recently, ultracold atom-ion systems are becoming available in experimental setups, where their quantum states can be coherently controlled. This allows for an…
It was recently argued [Phys. Rev. Lett 108, 220402 (2012)] that the stochastic dynamics of an open quantum system are not inherent to the system, but rather depend on the existence and nature of a distant detector. The proposed…
Single-shot read-out of individual qubits is typically the slowest process among the elementary single- and two-qubit operations required for quantum information processing. Here, we use resonance fluorescence from a single-electron charged…
The exceptional point has presented considerably interesting and counterintuitive phenomena associated with nonreciprocity, precision measurement, and topological dynamics. The Liouvillian exceptional point (LEP), involving the interplay of…
Quantum bits based on individual trapped atomic ions constitute a promising technology for building a quantum computer, with all the elementary operations having been achieved with the necessary precision for some error-correction schemes.…
Improved control of the motional and internal quantum states of ultracold neutral atoms and ions has opened intriguing possibilities for quantum simulation and quantum computation. Many-body effects have been explored with hundreds of…
Quantum thermodynamics is aimed at grasping thermodynamic laws as they apply to thermal machines operating in the deep quantum regime, a regime in which coherences and entanglement are expected to matter. Despite substantial progress,…
Various quantum applications can be reduced to estimating expectation values, which are inevitably deviated by operational and environmental errors. Although errors can be tackled by quantum error correction, the overheads are far from…
We discuss strategies for quantum enhanced estimation of atomic transition frequencies with ions stored in Paul traps or neutral atoms trapped in optical lattices. We show that only marginal quantum improvements can be achieved using…
In this chapter, we illustrate how a trapped ion system can be used for the experimental study of quantum thermodynamics, in particular, quantum fluctuation of work. As technology of nano/micro scale develops, it becomes critical to…
Great advances in precision quantum measurement have been achieved with trapped ions and atomic gases at the lowest possible temperatures. These successes have inspired ideas to merge the two systems. In this way one can study the unique…
In quantum mechanical experiments one distinguishes between the state of an experimental system and an observable measured in it. Heuristically, the distinction between states and observables is also suggested in scattering theory or when…
Trapped, laser-cooled atoms and ions are quantum systems which can be experimentally controlled with an as yet unmatched degree of precision. Due to the control of the motion and the internal degrees of freedom, these quantum systems can be…
