We present an ion-lattice quantum processor based on a two-dimensional arrangement of linear surface traps. Our design features a tunable coupling between ions in adjacent lattice sites and a configurable ion-lattice connectivity, allowing one, e.g., to realize rectangular and triangular lattices with the same trap chip. We present detailed trap simulations of a simplest-instance ion array with $2times9$ trapping sites and report on the fabrication of a prototype device in an industrial facility. The design and the employed fabrication processes are scalable to larger array sizes. We demonstrate trapping of ions in rectangular and triangular lattices and demonstrate transport of a $2times2$ ion-lattice over one lattice period.

Quantum mechanics dominates various effects in modern research from miniaturizing electronics, up to potentially ruling solid-state physics, quantum chemistry and biology. To study these effects experimental quantum systems may provide the only effec
tive access. Seminal progress has been achieved in a variety of physical platforms, highlighted by recent applications. Atomic ions are known for their unique controllability and are identical by nature, as evidenced, e.g., by performing among the most precise atomic clocks and providing the basis for one-dimensional simulators. However, controllable, scalable systems of more than one dimension are required to address problems of interest and to reach beyond classical numerics with its powerful approximative methods. Here we show, tunable, coherent couplings and interference in a two-dimensional ion microtrap array, completing the toolbox for a reconfigurable quantum simulator. Previously, couplings and entangling interactions between sites in one-dimensional traps have been realized, while coupling remained elusive in microtrap approaches. Our architecture is based on well isolatable ions as identical quantum entities hovering above scalable CMOS chips. In contrast to other multi-dimensional approaches, it allows individual control in arbitrary, even non-periodic, lattice structures. Embedded control structures can exploit the long-range Coulomb interaction to configure synthetic, fully connected many-body systems to address multi-dimensional problems.
Scaling quantum information processors is a challenging task, requiring manipulation of a large number of qubits with high fidelity and a high degree of connectivity. For trapped ions, this could be realized in a two-dimensional array of interconnect
ed traps in which ions are separated, transported and recombined to carry out quantum operations on small subsets of ions. Here, we use a junction connecting orthogonal linear segments in a two-dimensional (2D) trap array to reorder a two-ion crystal. The secular motion of the ions experiences low energy gain and the internal qubit levels maintain coherence during the reordering process, therefore demonstrating a promising method for providing all-to-all connectivity in a large-scale, two- or three-dimensional trapped-ion quantum information processor.
Atomic ions trapped in ultra-high vacuum form an especially well-understood and useful physical system for quantum information processing. They provide excellent shielding of quantum information from environmental noise, while strong, well-controlled
laser interactions readily provide quantum logic gates. A number of basic quantum information protocols have been demonstrated with trapped ions. Much current work aims at the construction of large-scale ion-trap quantum computers using complex microfabricated trap arrays. Several groups are also actively pursuing quantum interfacing of trapped ions with photons.
Quantum-mechanical principles can be used to process information (QIP). In one approach, linear arrays of trapped, laser cooled ion qubits (two-level quantum systems) are confined in segmented multi-zone electrode structures. The ion trap approach to
QIP requires trapping and control of numerous ions in electrode structures with many trapping zones. I investigated microfabrication of structures to trap, transport and couple large numbers of ions. Using 24Mg+ I demonstrated loading and transport between zones in microtraps made of boron doped silicon. This thesis describes the fundamentals of ion trapping, the characteristics of silicon-based traps amenable to QIP work and apparatus to trap ions and characterize traps. Microfabrication instructions appropriate for nonexperts are included. Ion motional heating was measured. <<>> Using MEMs techniques I built a Si micro-mechanical oscillator and demonstrated a method to reduce the kinetic energy of its lowest order mechanical mode via capacitive coupling to a driven radio frequency (RF) oscillator. Cooling resulted from a RF capacitive force, phase shifted relative to the cantilever motion. The technique was demonstrated by cooling the 7 kHz fundamental mode from room temperature to 45 K. <<>> I also discuss an implementation of the semiclassical quantum Fourier transform (QFT) using three beryllium ion qubits. The QFT is a crucial step in a number of quantum algorithms including Shors algorithm, a quantum approach to integer factorization which is exponentially faster than the fastest known classical factoring algorithm. This demonstration incorporated the key elements of a scalable ion-trap architecture for QIP.
We describe a novel monolithic ion trap that combines the flexibility and scalability of silicon microfabrication technologies with the superior trapping characteristics of traditional four-rod Paul traps. The performace of the proposed microfabricat
ed trap approaches that of the macroscopic structures. The fabrication process creates an angled through-chip slot which allows backside ion loading and through-laser access while avoiding surface light scattering and dielectric charging. The trap geometry and dimensions are optimized for confining long ion chains with equal ion spacing [G.-D. Lin, et al., Europhys. Lett. 86, 60004 (2009)]. Control potentials have been derived to produce linear, equally spaced ion chains of up to 50 ions spaced at 10 um. With the deep trapping depths achievable in this design, we expect that these chains will be sufficiently long-lived to be used in quantum simulations of magnetic systems [E.E. Edwards, et al., Phys. Rev. B 82, 060412(R) (2010)]. The trap is currently being fabricated at Georgia Tech using VLSI techniques.
