Coherent Control of Trapped Ion Qubits with Localized Electric Fields

ORAL

Abstract

We present a new method for coherent control of trapped ion qubits in separate interaction regions of a multi-zone trap by simultaneously applying an electric field and a spin-dependent gradient. Both the phase and amplitude of the effective single-qubit rotation depend on the electric field, which can be localized to each zone. We demonstrate this interaction on a single ion using both laser-based and magnetic field gradients in a surface-electrode ion trap, and measure the localization of the electric field.
