Low temperature dynamics and laser-cooling of two-species Coulomb chains for quantum logic
arXiv:quant-ph/0005082 · doi:10.1007/s100530170275
Abstract
We study from the point of view of quantum logic the properties of the collective oscillations of a linear chain of ions trapped in a linear Paul trap and composed of two ion species. We discuss extensively sympathetic cooling of the chain and the effect of anharmonicity on laser-cooling and quantum-information processing.
