Atomic ions trapped in electromagnetic potentials have long been used for fundamental
studies in quantum physics. Over the past two decades, trapped ions have been …

Here we review the field of atom chips in the context of Bose–Einstein Condensates (BEC)
as well as cold matter in general. Twenty years after the first realization of the BEC and 15 …

We consider the practical feasibility of using the direct, electric dipole-dipole interaction
between cotrapped molecular ions for robust quantum logic without the need for static …

Quantization of energy is a quintessential characteristic of quantum systems. Here we
analyze its effects on the operation of Otto cycle heat machines and show that energy …

The interaction between the electric dipole moment of a trapped molecular ion and the
phonon modes of the confined Coulomb crystal couples the orientation of the molecule to its …

We probe electric-field noise near the metal surface of an ion-trap chip in the temperature
range from 295 to 530 K. We observe a nontrivial temperature dependence with the noise …

Functional gradient films with high absorption efficiencies and damage thresholds are
crucial for eliminating stray light to decrease laser-induced damage in optical systems …

Trapped ion technology has seen advances in performance, robustness and versatility over
the last decade. With increasing numbers of trapped ion groups worldwide, a myriad of trap …

In this paper, a new scheme for asymmetric cyclic controlled teleportation of arbitrary three-
dimensional unknown quantum states is proposed by performing three-dimensional Bell …

We propose a scheme for teleporting arbitrary two-qubit state via a four-qubit cluster state
channel in noisy environment. Firstly, we study the teleportation of an arbitrary two-qubit …
