We report on transport operations with linear crystals of 40Ca+ ions by applying complex electric time-dependent potentials. For their control we use the information obtained from the ions fluorescence. We demonstrate that by means of this feedback technique, we can transport a predefined number of ions and also split and unify ion crystals. The feedback control allows for a robust scheme, compensating for experimental errors as it does not rely on a precisely known electrical modeling of the electric potentials in the ion trap beforehand. Our method allows us to generate a self-learning voltage ramp for the required process. With an experimental demonstration of a transport with more than 99.8 % success probability, this technique may facilitate the operation of a future ion based quantum processor.

We report an experimental confirmation of the power-law relationship between the critical anisotropy parameter and ion number for the linear-to-zigzag phase transition in an ionic crystal. Our experiment uses laser cooled calcium ions confined in a l inear radio-frequency trap. Measurements for up to 10 ions are in good agreement with theoretical and numeric predictions. Implications on an upper limit to the size of data registers in ion trap quantum computers are discussed.
A simple and flexible scheme for high-dimensional linear quantum operations on optical transverse spatial modes is demonstrated. The quantum Fourier transformation (QFT) and quantum state tomography (QST) via symmetric informationally complete positi ve operator-valued measures (SIC POVMs) are implemented with dimensionality of 15. The matrix fidelity of QFT is 0.85, while the statistical fidelity of SIC POVMs and fidelity of QST are ~0.97 and up to 0.853, respectively. We believe that our device has the potential for further exploration of high-dimensional spatial entanglement provided by spontaneous parametric down conversion in nonlinear crystals.

The mathematical theory of quantum feedback networks has recently been developed for general open quantum dynamical systems interacting with bosonic input fields. In this article we show, for the special case of linear dynamical systems Markovian sys tems with instantaneous feedback connections, that the transfer functions can be deduced and agree with the algebraic rules obtained in the nonlinear case. Using these rules, we derive the the transfer functions for linear quantum systems in series, in cascade, and in feedback arrangements mediated by beam splitter devices.
The solving of linear systems provides a rich area to investigate the use of nearer-term, noisy, intermediate-scale quantum computers. In this work, we discuss hybrid quantum-classical algorithms for skewed linear systems for over-determined and unde r-determined cases. Our input model is such that the columns or rows of the matrix defining the linear system are given via quantum circuits of poly-logarithmic depth and the number of circuits is much smaller than their Hilbert space dimension. Our algorithms have poly-logarithmic dependence on the dimension and polynomial dependence in other natural quantities. In addition, we present an algorithm for the special case of a factorized linear system with run time poly-logarithmic in the respective dimensions. At the core of these algorithms is the Hadamard test and in the second part of this paper we consider the optimization of the circuit depth of this test. Given an $n$-qubit and $d$-depth quantum circuit $mathcal{C}$, we can approximate $langle 0|mathcal{C}|0rangle$ using $(n + s)$ qubits and $Oleft(log s + dlog (n/s) + dright)$-depth quantum circuits, where $sleq n$. In comparison, the standard implementation requires $n+1$ qubits and $O(dn)$ depth. Lattice geometries underlie recent quantum supremacy experiments with superconducting devices. We also optimize the Hadamard test for an $(l_1times l_2)$ lattice with $l_1 times l_2 = n$, and can approximate $langle 0|mathcal{C} |0rangle$ with $(n + 1)$ qubits and $Oleft(d left(l_1 + l_2right)right)$-depth circuits. In comparison, the standard depth is $Oleft(d n^2right)$ in this setting. Both of our optimization methods are asymptotically tight in the case of one-depth quantum circuits $mathcal{C}$.
The electronic and motional degrees of freedom of trapped ions can be controlled and coherently coupled on the level of individual quanta. Assembling complex quantum systems ion by ion while keeping this unique level of control remains a challenging task. For many applications, linear chains of ions in conventional traps are ideally suited to address this problem. However, driven motion due to the magnetic or radio-frequency electric trapping fields sometimes limits the performance in one dimension and severely affects the extension to higher dimensional systems. Here, we report on the trapping of multiple Barium ions in a single-beam optical dipole trap without radio-frequency or additional magnetic fields. We study the persistence of order in ensembles of up to six ions within the optical trap, measure their temperature and conclude that the ions form a linear chain, commonly called a one-dimensional Coulomb crystal. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we access the collective motion and perform spectrometry of the normal modes in the optical trap. Our system provides a platform which is free of driven motion and combines advantages of optical trapping, such as state-dependent confinement and nano-scale potentials, with the desirable properties of crystals of trapped ions, such as long-range interactions featuring collective motion. Starting with small numbers of ions, it has been proposed that these properties would allow the experimental study of many-body physics and the onset of structural quantum phase transitions between one- and two-dimensional crystals.
