Towards quantum computing with trapped-ion qudits
Speaker:Martin Ringbauer (University of Innsbruck)
Abstract:Today’s quantum computers are almost exclusively built for binary information processing, inherited from classical computers. Yet, the underlying quantum systems, in particular trapped ions, are inherently multilevel systems. Similarly, a wide range of target applications for quantum computers and simulators are naturally formulated in high-dimensional Hilbert spaces. I will discuss how to construct a universal toolbox for quantum information processing in trapped-ion qudits and how to use it for improved quantum information processing. We demonstrate that the performance of the quantum processor does not degrade with qudit dimension, making this a promising way to scale the computational power of existing quantum hardware. This talk is part of ongoing joint efforts to take high-dimensional quantum information from the communication domain into the computing domain
