Reconfigurable and Programmable Ion Trap Quantum Computer

Progress is presented on the construction and operation of a room- temperature quantum computer built with trapped atomic ion qubits, which will likely allow ion trap quantum computers to express the superset of all known quantum computation operations, and thus efficiently _target any type of application that arises.

OpenQL : A Portable Quantum Programming Framework for Quantum Accelerators

This article presents the programming interface of OpenQL, the different layers of the compiler and how it can provide portability over different qubit technologies, and shows that OpenQL allows the execution of the same high-level algorithm on two different qu Bit technologies, namely superconducting qubits and Si-Spin qubits.

Architecture for a large-scale ion-trap quantum computer

This work shows how to achieve massively parallel gate operation in a large-scale quantum computer, based on techniques already demonstrated for manipulating small quantum registers, and uses the use of decoherence-free subspaces to do so.

Entanglement of single-atom quantum bits at a distance

The entanglement of two fixed single-atom quantum memories separated by one metre is demonstrated by directly measuring qubit correlations with near-perfect detection efficiency, and is still in principle useful for subsequent quantum operations and scalable quantum information applications.

Entangled states of trapped atomic ions

Experiments show that just a few entangled trapped ions can be used to improve the precision of measurements, and if the entanglement in such systems can be scaled up to larger numbers of ions, simulations that are intractable on a classical computer might become possible.

This work implements a CNOT quantum gate according to the Cirac–Zoller proposal, which relies on recently developed precise control of atomic phases and the application of composite pulse sequences adapted from nuclear magnetic resonance techniques.

Speed optimized two-qubit gates with laser coherent control techniques for ion trap quantum computing.

A new concept for a two-qubit gate operating on a pair of trapped ions based on laser coherent control techniques is proposed, which is insensitive to the temperature of the ions, works also outside the Lamb-Dicke regime, and can be orders of magnitude faster than the trap period.
