To date, individual addressing of ion qubits has relied primarily on local Rabi or transition frequency differences between ions created via electromagnetic field spatial gradients or via ion transport operations. Alternatively, it is possible to synthesize arbitrary local one-qubit gates by leveraging local phase differences in a global driving field. Here we report individual addressing of $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions in a two-ion crystal using axial potential modulation in a global gate laser field. We characterize the resulting gate performance via one-qubit randomized benchmarking, applying different random sequences to each co-trapped ion. We identify the primary error sources and compare the results with single-ion experiments to better understand our experimental limitations. These experiments form a foundation for the universal control of two ions, confined in the same potential well, with a single gate laser beam.
A time orbiting potential trap confines neutral atoms in a rotating magnetic field. The rotation of the field can be useful for precision measurements, since it can average out some systematic effects. However, the field is more difficult to characte
A novel approach to optics integration in ion traps is demonstrated based on a surface electrode ion trap that is microfabricated on top of a dielectric mirror. Additional optical losses due to fabrication are found to be as low as 80 ppm for light a
Trapped ions are pre-eminent candidates for building quantum information processors and quantum simulators. They have been used to demonstrate quantum gates and algorithms, quantum error correction, and basic quantum simulations. However, to realise
We report on the characterization of heating rates and photo-induced electric charging on a microfabricated surface ion trap with integrated waveguides. Microfabricated surface ion traps have received considerable attention as a quantum information p
We propose a surface ion trap design incorporating microwave control electrodes for near-field single-qubit control. The electrodes are arranged so as to provide arbitrary frequency, amplitude and polarization control of the microwave field in one tr
