Protoype Solid State Quantum Interface for Trapped Ions
Abstract
We study how to couple the motion of trapped ions to each other. For this we set up an ion trap apparatus with an electrically floating electrode connecting two trapping sites. We find that we can trap ions nearby such an electrically floating electrode. At the same time, we develop a method to cool and control motional modes not accessible with laser radiation, thereby relaxing requirements for optical access. We also measure the degree of polarization of anomalous heating and find it consistent with sources from the metal surface. We design a second generation trap with an integrated coupling electrode amenable to Arion treatment. Finally, we develop a vision for QIP with electrons with the distinct advantages of avoiding laser technology and being inherently faster than trapped ions.
