By increasing the breakdown voltage, both 2D lattice and linear surface traps with higher trap depth and lower heating rates (by making use of larger ion–electrode distances) can be fabricated.

Still, this is exactly the progress required to obtain 2D ion crystals that are ready for the heady world of quantum computing. Physical Review Letters , 2019, DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.053603 ...

We have been able, for the first time, to stably trap and image in a Penning trap ion strings up to 0.46 mm in length (29 ions). Figure 2 shows images of linear ICCs.

To realize a large-scale quantum computer using ion traps, this theme pursues quantum photonic interconnects of ion traps. The core of this project is the development of a device that integrates a ...

The flat ion trap, roughly 1cm by 2cm, can be made easily using processing techniques used on a large scale in electronics. Ions are trapped 40 microns above the surface of the chip. False-colour ...

Five on a line: an ion trap with four segmented blade electrodes used to trap a linear chain of atomic ions for quantum-information processing. Each ion is addressed optically for individual control ...

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. announces the extension of its LC-MS ion trap and triple stage quadrupole trade-in programs to include the trade-in of instruments from any vendor. Scientists are invited ...

Meanwhile transport of ions is restricted to pass along linear sections connected by crosses. Ion trap with a magnetic field. A team of researchers at ETH Zurich led by Jonathan Home has now ...

Ion trap with a magnetic field. A team of researchers at ETH Zurich led by Jonathan Home has now demonstrated that ion traps suitable for use in quantum computers can also be built using static ...

The team designed a two-dimensional (2D) manganese-oxide/graphene superlattice that triggers a unique lattice-wide strain mechanism. This approach significantly boosts the structural stability of ...
