Quantum Phase Gates for Trapped Ions via Adiabatic Passage

We propose a scheme to produce quantum phase gates for trapped ions. Taking advantage of the adiabatic evolution, the operation is insensitive to small fluctuations of experimental parameters. Furthermore, the spontaneous emission is suppressed since the ions have no probability of being populated in the electronic excited states.

One-Step Scheme for Realizing N-Qubit Quantum Phase Gates with Hot Trapped Ions

A scheme is presented for realizing an N-qubit quantum phase gate with trapped ions. Taking advantage of the virtual excitation of the vibrational mode, the qubit system undergoes a full-cycle of Rabi oscillation in the selective symmetric Dicke subspace. The scheme only involves a single step and the operation is insensitive to thermal motion. Moreover, the scheme does not require individual addresing of the ions.

Quantum logic gates with two-level trapped ions beyond Lamb-Dicke limit

In the system with two two-level ions confined in a linear trap, this paper presents a simple scheme to realize the quantum phase gate （QPG） and the swap gate beyond the Lamb Dicke （LD） limit. These two-qubit quantum logic gates only involve the internal states of two trapped ions. The scheme does not use the vibrational mode as the data bus and only requires a single resonant interaction of the ions with the lasers. Neither the LD approximation nor the auxiliary atomic level is needed in the proposed scheme. Thus the scheme is simple and the interaction time is very short, which is important in view of decoherence. The experimental feasibility for achieving this scheme is also discussed.

A scheme of quantum phase gate for trapped ion

We propose a scheme to implement two-qubit controlled quantum phase gate（CQPG） via a single trapped two-level ion located in the standing wave field of a quantum cavlty, in which the trap works beyond the Lamb--Dicke limit. When the light field is resonant with the atomic transition ｜g） →← ｜e） of the ion located at the antinode of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the internal and external states of the trapped ion; while the frequency of the light field is chosen to be resonant with the first red sideband of the collective vibrational mode of the ion located at the node of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the cavity mode and the collective vibrational mode of the trapped ion. Neither the Lamb--Dicke approximation nor the assistant classical laser is needed. Also we can generate a GHZ state if assisted with a classical laser.

Scheme for the implementation of 1 → 3 optimal phase-covariant quantum cloning in ion-trap systems

This paper proposes a scheme for the implementation of 1→ 3 optimal phase-covariant quantum cloning with trapped ions. In the present protocol, the required time for the whole procedure is short due to the resonant interaction, which is important in view of decoherence. Furthermore, the scheme is feasible based on current technologies.

Generation of unconventional geometric phase gates in ion trap-optical cavity system by squeezed operators

Based on squeezed operators this paper has implemented an ideal unconventional geometric quantum gate （GQG） in ion trap-optical cavity system by radiating the trapped ions with the cavity field of frequency ωc and an external laser field of frequency ωL. It can ensure that the gate time is shorter than the coherence time for qubits and the decay time of the optical cavity by appropriately tuning the ionic transition frequency ω0, the frequencies of the cavity mode ωc and the vibrational mode v. It has also realized the unconventional GQG under the influence of the cavity decay based on the squeezed-like operators and found that the present scheme works well for the smaller cavity decay by investigating the corresponding fidelity and success probability.

Operational effects of the UNOT gate on classical and quantum correlations

The NOT gate that flips a classical bit is ubiquitous in classical information processing.However its quantum analogue,the universal NOT(UNOT) gate that flips a quantum spin in any alignment into its antipodal counterpart is strictly forbidden.Here we explore the connection between this discrepancy and how UNOT gates affect classical and quantum correlations.We show that while a UNOT gate always preserves classical correlations between two spins,it can non-locally increase or decrease their shared discord in ways that allow violation of the data processing inequality.We experimentally illustrate this using a multi-level trapped ^(171)Yb^+ ion that allows simulation of anti-unitary operations.
