Demonstration of Integrated Microscale Optics in Surface-Electrode Ion Traps
Abstract
In ion trap quantum information processing, efficient fluorescence collection is critical for fast, high-fidelity qubit detection and ion photon entanglement. The expected size of future many-ion processors requires scalable light collection systems. We report on the development and testing of a microfabricated surface-electrode ion trap with an integrated high-numerical aperture (NA) micromirror for fluorescence collection. When coupled to a low-NA lens, the optical system is inherently scalable to large arrays of mirrors in a single device.
