Quantum science and metrology with mixed-species ion chains    [PDF]

Jonathan P. Home
This chapter reviews recent developments in the use of mixed-species ion chains in quantum information science, frequency metrology and spectroscopy. A growing number of experiments have demonstrated new methods in this area, opening up new possibilities for quantum state generation, quantum control of previously inaccessible ions, and the ability to maintain quantum control over extended periods. I describe these methods, providing details of the techniques which are required in order to work with such systems. In addition, I present perspectives on possible future uses of quantum logic spectroscopy techniques, which have the potential to extend precision control of atomic ions to a large range of atomic and molecular species.
