Trapped Atomic Ions IQuantum computing and motional quantum gates

Christopher MonroeFOCUS Center & Department of PhysicsUniversity of Michigan

“When we get to the very, very small world – say circuits of seven atoms - we have a lot of new things that would happen that represent completely new opportunities for design. Atoms on a small scale behave like nothing on a large scale, for they satisfy the laws of quantum mechanics…”

“There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom”(1959 APS annual meeting)

Richard Feynman

A quantum computer hosts quantum bits that can store superpositions of 0 and 1

classical bit: 0 or 1 quantum bit: |0 + |1

…GOOD NEWS!quantum interference

Key resource: Quantum Entanglement

• not just a “choice of basis” e.g. vs. |0,0

must be able to access subsystems individually (see Bell )

= ( + )( + ) Contrast = 2|| = 0.5

( i)( i) = or

( i)( i)

…

Contrast = 2|| = 0.5

= + Contrast = 2|| = 1

• not hard to qualify (entanglement thresholds)

ideal:

1 = | + |

2 = | + | + | + | + | + |

• very hard to quantify (esp. mixed states)

Classical Information: S(AB) S(A) + S(B)

Quantum Information: S(AB) < S(A) + S(B) possible!

Information Entropy

Quantum computer hardware requirements

1. Must make states like

|000…0 + |111…1

2. Must measure state with high efficiency

•strong coupling to environment

• strong coupling between qubits• weak coupling to environment
