Ion-Cavity Integration for Quantum Information Processing
Abstract
The goal of the program was to develop atom + cavity QED systems capable of storing and coherently manipulating quantum information coded in long-lived ground states of trapped atoms. We have developed atom traps designed to trap arrays of atoms inside high-finesse optical resonators. We have incorporated these atom traps into our high-finesse optical resonators and distilled the number of atoms in the traps down to the single atom level. Our implementation will enable coherent quantum information processing between atomic qubits readily scalable to >20 qubits. The theoretical effort of this program focused on two goals: (1) exploring alternative strategies for atomic and optical-based systems capable of storing and manipulating quantum information, and (2) supporting the experimental program by providing detailed study of the laboratory systems.
