Toward Quantum Computing Experiments Using Trapped Electrons

POSTER

Abstract



Trapped electrons are promising candidates for quantum computation combining the high-performance of trapped ions and the high speed of superconducting qubit experiments in a single and scalable platform. The quantum information can be encoded in the electron’s spin state, which allows for using well-known microwave technology to read out and manipulate the qubit, while avoiding complex laser systems. Here we present our progress toward trapping and manipulating electrons in a microsized 3D-printed linear Paul trap, which will be fabricated using two-photon direct laser writing polymerization technology. In the future, we plan to implement a non-destructive quantum state readout of electrons at cryogenic temperatures in such traps.
