摘要:

本文从理论和实验上研究了Paul阱中二维离子晶体的双电磁感应透明冷却。观察到双EIT基态冷却的\Yb离子与时钟状态,EIT冷却尚未实现像许多其他离子与一个简单的$Λ$ -方案。对于单个离子,观察到$\dot{\bar n}=34~(\pm1.8)~\rm{ms}^{-1}$的冷却速率和$\bar n=0.06~(\pm 0.059)$的冷却极限。测得的冷却速率和极限与理论预测一致。我们应用双EIT冷却的横向模式的二维(2D)晶体与多达12个离子。在我们的二维晶体中,微动和横模方向是垂直的,这使得它们解耦。因此,横向模上的冷却不受微动的干扰,这在我们的实验中得到了证实。对于12离子晶体的质心模式,我们观察到的冷却速率和冷却极限是一致的,与一个单一的离子,包括加热速率成比例的离子的数量。这种方法可以扩展到其他超精细量子比特,并且具有大量离子的静止2D晶体的近基态冷却可能会推进量子信息科学领域。

英文摘要:

We theoretically and experimentally investigate double electromagnetically induced transparency (double-EIT) cooling of two-dimensional ion crystals confined in a Paul trap. The double-EIT ground-state cooling is observed for \Yb ions with clock state, for which EIT cooling has not been realized like many other ions with a simple $Λ$-scheme. A cooling rate of $\dot{\bar n}=34~(\pm1.8)~\rm{ms}^{-1}$ and a cooling limit of $\bar n=0.06~(\pm 0.059)$ are observed for a single ion. The measured cooling rate and limit are consistent with theoretical predictions. We apply double-EIT cooling to the transverse modes of two-dimensional (2D) crystals with up to 12 ions. In our 2D crystals, the micromotion and the transverse mode directions are perpendicular, which makes them decoupled. Therefore, the cooling on transverse modes is not disturbed by micromotion, which is confirmed in our experiment. For the center of mass mode of a 12 ions crystal, we observe a cooling rate and a cooling limit that are consistent with those of a single ion, including heating rates proportional to the number of ions. This method can be extended to other hyperfine qubits, and near ground-state cooling of stationary 2D crystals with large numbers of ions may advance the field of quantum information sciences.
