Atomic ions trapped in electromagnetic potentials have long been used for fundamental
studies in quantum physics. Over the past two decades, trapped ions have been …

Quantum information processors promise fast algorithms for problems inaccessible to
classical computers. But since qubits are noisy and error-prone, they will depend on fault …

Ion traps offer the opportunity to study fundamental quantum systems with a high level of
accuracy highly decoupled from the environment. Individual atomic ions can be controlled …

Direct experimental access to some of the most intriguing quantum phenomena is not
granted due to the lack of precise control of the relevant parameters in their naturally …

Although recent studies have established a powerful framework to search for and classify
topological phases based on symmetry indicators, there exists a large class of fragile …

Fast and efficient detection of the qubit state in trapped ion systems is critical for
implementing quantum error correction and performing fundamental tests such as a …

Laser cleaning of the electrodes in a planar micro-fabricated ion trap has been attempted
using ns pulses from a tripled Nd: YAG laser at 355 nm. The effect of the laser pulses at …

We demonstrate superconducting nanowire single photon detectors with 76±4% system
detection efficiency at a wavelength of 315 nm and an operating temperature of 3.2 K, with a …

We present an overview of contemporary quantum computing with ytterbium ion traps,
placing the emphasis on industry implementations. We provide brief, concrete descriptions …

We characterise the performance of a surface-electrode ion “chip” trap fabricated using
established semiconductor integrated circuit and micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) …
