Trapped atomic ions are a leading platform for quantum information networks, with long-lived identical qubit memories that can be locally entangled through their Coulomb interaction and remotely entangled through photonic channels. However, performing both local and remote operations in a single node of a quantum network requires extreme isolation between spectator qubit memories and qubits associated with the photonic interface. We achieve this isolation and demonstrate the ingredients of a scalable ion trap network node by co-trapping $^{171}$Yb$^+ $ and $^{138}$Ba$^+ $ qubits, entangling the mixed species qubit pair through their collective motion, and entangling the $^{138}$Ba$^+ $ qubits with emitted visible photons.

Trapped atomic ions embedded in optical cavities are a promising platform to enable long-distance quantum networks and their most far-reaching applications. Here we achieve and analyze photon indistinguishability in a telecom-converted ion-cavity sys
tem. First, two-photon interference of cavity photons at their ion-resonant wavelength is observed and found to reach the limits set by spontaneous emission. Second, this limit is shown to be preserved after a two-step frequency conversion replicating a distributed scenario, in which the cavity photons are converted to the telecom C band and then back to the original wavelength. The achieved interference visibility and photon efficiency would allow for the distribution and practical verification of entanglement between ion-qubit registers separated by several tens of kilometers.
We demonstrate key multi-qubit quantum logic primitives in a dual-species trapped-ion system based on $^{40}$Ca+ and $^{88}$Sr+ ions, using two optical qubits with quantum-logic-control frequencies in the red to near-infrared range. With all ionizati
on, cooling, and control wavelengths in a wavelength band similar for the two species and centered in the visible, and with a favorable mass ratio for sympathetic cooling, this pair is a promising candidate for scalable quantum information processing. Same-species and dual-species two-qubit gates, based on the Moelmer-Soerensen interaction and performed in a cryogenic surface-electrode trap, are characterized via the fidelity of generated entangled states; we achieve fidelities of 98.8(2)% and 97.5(2)% in Ca+ - Ca+ and Sr+ - Sr+ gates, respectively. For a similar Ca+ - Sr+ gate, we achieve a fidelity of 94.3(3)%, and carrying out a Sr+ - Sr+ gate performed with a Ca+ sympathetic cooling ion in a Sr+ - Ca+ - Sr+ crystal configuration, we achieve a fidelity of 95.7(3)%. These primitives form a set of trapped-ion capabilities for logic with sympathetic cooling and ancilla readout or state transfer for general quantum computing and communication applications.
Trapped ions form an advanced technology platform for quantum information processing with long qubit coherence times, high-fidelity quantum logic gates, optically active qubits, and a potential to scale up in size while preserving a high level of con
nectivity between qubits. These traits make them attractive not only for quantum computing but also for quantum networking. Dedicated, special-purpose trapped-ion processors in conjunction with suitable interconnecting hardware can be used to form quantum repeaters that enable high-rate quantum communications between distant trapped-ion quantum computers in a network. In this regard, hybrid traps with two distinct species of ions, where one ion species can generate ion-photon entanglement that is useful for optically interfacing with the network and the other has long memory lifetimes, useful for qubit storage, has been previously proposed for the distribution of quantum entanglement over the network. We consider an architecture for a repeater based on such a dual-species trapped-ion system. We propose protocols based on spatial and temporal mode multiplexing for entanglement distribution across a line network of such repeaters. Our protocols offer enhanced performance over previously analyzed protocols for such repeaters.
Scaling-up from prototype systems to dense arrays of ions on chip, or vast networks of ions connected by photonic channels, will require developing entirely new technologies that combine miniaturized ion trapping systems with devices to capture, tran
smit and detect light, while refining how ions are confined and controlled. Building a cohesive ion system from such diverse parts involves many challenges, including navigating materials incompatibilities and undesired coupling between elements. Here, we review our recent efforts to create scalable ion systems incorporating unconventional materials such as graphene and indium tin oxide, integrating devices like optical fibers and mirrors, and exploring alternative ion loading and trapping techniques.
Trapped-ion quantum information processors store information in atomic ions maintained in position in free space via electric fields. Quantum logic is enacted via manipulation of the ions internal and shared motional quantum states using optical and
microwave signals. While trapped ions show great promise for quantum-enhanced computation, sensing, and communication, materials research is needed to design traps that allow for improved performance by means of integration of system components, including optics and electronics for ion-qubit control, while minimizing the near-ubiquitous electric-field noise produced by trap-electrode surfaces. In this review, we consider the materials requirements for such integrated systems, with a focus on problems that hinder current progress toward practical quantum computation. We give suggestions for how materials scientists and trapped-ion technologists can work together to develop materials-based integration and noise-mitigation strategies to enable the next generation of trapped-ion quantum computers.
