Coherently manipulating cold ions in separated traps by their vibrational couplings

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Recent experiments [K. R. Brown, et al., Nature 471, 196 (2011); and M. Harlander, et al., Nature 471, 200 (2011)] have demonstrated the coherent manipulations on the external vibrations of two ions, confined individually in the separated ion traps. Using these recently developed techniques, we propose here an approach to realize the coherent operations, e.g., the universal quantum gates, between the separated ion-trap qubits encoded by two internal atomic states of the trapped ions. Our proposal operates beyond the usual Lamb-Dicke limits, and could be applied to the scalable ion traps coupled by their vibrations.
