Title: Integrated Optical Addressing of a Trapped Ytterbium Ion

Abstract

We report on the characterization of heating rates and photoinduced electric charging on a microfabricated surface ion trap with integrated waveguides. Microfabricated surface ion traps have received considerable attention as a quantum information platform due to their scalability and manufacturability. Here, we characterize the delivery of 435-nm light through waveguides and diffractive couplers to a single ytterbium ion in a compact trap. We measure an axial heating rate at room temperature of 0.78 ± 0.05 q/ms and see no increase due to the presence of the waveguide. Furthermore, the electric field due to charging of the exposed dielectric outcoupler settles under normal operation after an initial shift. The frequency instability after settling is measured to be 0.9 kHz.

Loading an Equidistant Ion Chain in a Ring Shaped Surface Trap and Anomalous Heating Studies with a High Optical Access Trap

Thesis/Dissertation Tabakov, Boyan

Microfabricated segmented surface ion traps are one viable avenue to scalable quantum information processing. At Sandia National Laboratories we design, fabricate, and characterize such traps. Our unique fabrication capabilities allow us to design traps that facilitate tasks beyond quantum information processing. The design and performance of a trap with a target capability of storing hundreds of equally spaced ions on a ring is described. Such a device could aid experimental studies of phenomena as diverse as Hawking radiation, quantum phase transitions, and the Aharonov - Bohm effect. The fabricated device is demonstrated to hold a ~ 400 ion circular crystal,more »« less
Versatile ytterbium ion trap experiment for operation of scalable ion-trap chips with motional heating and transition-frequency measurements

Journal Article McLoughlin, James J ; Nizamani, Altaf H ; Siverns, James D ; ... - Physical Review. A

We present the design and operation of an ytterbium ion trap experiment with a setup offering versatile optical access and 90 electrical interconnects that can host advanced surface and multilayer ion trap chips mounted on chip carriers. We operate a macroscopic ion trap compatible with this chip carrier design and characterize its performance, demonstrating secular frequencies >1 MHz, and trap and cool nearly all of the stable isotopes, including {sup 171}Yb{sup +} ions, as well as ion crystals. For this particular trap we measure the motional heating rate <n> and observe an <n>{proportional_to}1/{omega}{sup 2} behavior for different secular frequencies {omega}.more »« less

Ball-grid array architecture for microfabricated ion traps

Journal Article Guise, Nicholas D., E-mail: nicholas.guise@gtri.gatech.edu ; Fallek, Spencer D. ; Stevens, Kelly E. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

State-of-the-art microfabricated ion traps for quantum information research are approaching nearly one hundred control electrodes. We report here on the development and testing of a new architecture for microfabricated ion traps, built around ball-grid array (BGA) connections, that is suitable for increasingly complex trap designs. In the BGA trap, through-substrate vias bring electrical signals from the back side of the trap die to the surface trap structure on the top side. Gold-ball bump bonds connect the back side of the trap die to an interposer for signal routing from the carrier. Trench capacitors fabricated into the trap die replace area-intensivemore »« less

Microscopic model of electric-field-noise heating in ion traps

Journal Article Safavi-Naini, A ; ITAMP, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 ; Rabl, P ; ... - Physical Review. A

Motional heating of ions in microfabricated traps is one of the open challenges hindering experimental realizations of large-scale quantum processing devices. Recently, a series of measurements of the heating rates in surface-electrode ion traps characterized their frequency, distance, and temperature dependencies, but our understanding of the microscopic origin of this noise remains incomplete. In this work we develop a theoretical model for the electric field noise which is associated with a random distribution of adsorbed atoms on the trap electrode surface. By using first-principles calculations of the fluctuating dipole moments of the adsorbed atoms we evaluate the distance, frequency, andmore »« less

A planar ion trapping microdevice with integrated planar waveguide for optical detection

Journal Article Jiang, Ms. Linan ; Whitten, William B ; Pau, Dr. Stanley - Optics Express

A planar ion trap with an integrated waveguide was fabricated and characterized. The microdevice, consisting of a 1 mm-diameter one-hole ring trap and multi-mode optical waveguides, was made on a glass wafer using microfabrication techniques. The experimental results demonstrate that the microdevice can trap 1.5 m-150 m diameter charged particles in air under an alternating electric field with the amplitude and frequency varying from 100V-750V, and 100Hz-700Hz, respectively. The on-chip waveguide is capable of detecting the presence of a particle in the trap, and the particle secular motion frequency was found to depend on the input alternating signal amplitude andmore » frequency.« less
