Micro-fabricated Surface Ion Traps for Quantum Computation

ORAL

Abstract

We will present results of the design, operation, and performance of surface ion micro-traps fabricated at Sandia. Recent progress in the testing of the micro-traps will be highlighted, including successful motional control of ions and the validation of simulations with experiments. Sandia is a multiprogram laboratory operated by Sandia Corporation, a Lockheed Martin Company, for the United States Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-AC04-94AL85000.
