A non-relativistic system such as an ultracold trapped ion may perform a quantum simulation of a Dirac equation dynamics under specific conditions. The resulting Hamiltonian and dynamics are highly controllable, but the coupling between…
Sympathetic cooling of molecular ions through the Coulomb interaction with laser-cooled atomic ions is an efficient tool to prepare translationally cold molecules without, ideally, affecting the internal state of the molecular ions.…
Qubits of long coherence time and fast quantum operations are long-sought objectives towards the realization of high-fidelity quantum operations and their applications to the quantum technologies. An electron levitated in a vacuum by a Paul…
In this work we investigate the theory for three different uni-directional population transfer schemes in trapped multilevel systems which can be utilized to cool molecular ions. The approach we use exploits the laser-induced coupling…
We propose the use of a trapped electron to implement quantum logic operations. The fundamental controlled-NOT gate is shown to be feasible. The two quantum bits are stored in the internal and external (motional) degrees of freedom.
Excess "micromotion" of trapped ions due to the residual radio-frequency (rf) trapping field at their location is often undesirable and is usually carefully minimized. Here, we induce precise amounts of excess micromotion on individual ions…
In this article we present a comprehensive theoretical investigation of phonon lasing with mixed-species trapped ions, as demonstrated in [T. Behrle, Phys. Rev. Lett. 131 (2023)], employing both a semi-classical mean-field description and a…
We demonstrate the reconstruction of the Wigner function from marginal distributions of the motion of a single trapped particle using homodyne detection. We show that it is possible to generate quantum states of levitated optomechanical…
The trapped-ion quantum charge-coupled device (QCCD) architecture is a leading candidate for advanced quantum information processing. In current QCCD implementations, imperfect ion transport and anomalous heating can excite ion motion…
Experiments with ultracold atoms in optical lattices usually involve a weak parabolic trapping potential which merely serves to confine the atoms, but otherwise remains negligible. In contrast, we suggest a different class of experiments in…
Selected configuration interaction (sCI) methods including second-order perturbative corrections provide near full CI (FCI) quality energies with only a small fraction of the determinants of the FCI space. Here, we introduce both a…
In this communication we investigate the quantum statistics of three harmonic oscillators mutually interacting with each other considering the modes are initially in Fock states. After solving the equations of motion, the squeezing…
A long-lived coherent state and non-linear interaction have been experimentally demonstrated for the vibrational mode of a trapped ion. We propose an implementation of quantum computation using coherent states of the vibrational modes of…
The micromotion of ion crystals confined in Paul traps is usually considered an inconvenient nuisance, and is thus typically minimised in high-precision experiments such as high-fidelity quantum gates for quantum information processing. In…
We examine the properties of a quantum reflection trap when particle-interaction is included. We explore the influence of the particle-interaction on the trapping for different regimes: repulsive particle-interaction and attractive…
We describe how two vibrational degrees of freedom of a single trapped ion can be coupled through the action of suitably-chosen laser excitation. We concentrate on a two-dimensional ion trap with dissimilar vibrational frequencies in the x-…
Novel ion traps that provide either a static or a dynamic magnetic gradient field allow for the use of radio frequency (rf) radiation for coupling internal and motional states of ions, which is essential for conditional quantum logic. We…
We study the open system dynamics of a harmonic oscillator coupled with an artificially engineered reservoir. We single out the reservoir and system variables governing the passage between Lindblad type and non-Lindblad type dynamics of the…
We present a cooling method for a strongly-interacting trapped quantum gas. By applying a magnetic field modulation with frequencies close to the binding energy of a molecular bound state we selectively remove dimers with high kinetic…
Quantum simulation of interacting many-body spin systems is routinely performed with cold trapped ions, and systems with hundreds of spins have been studied in one and two dimensions. In the most common realizations of these platforms, spin…
