• Abstract: Scaling a trapped-ion based quantum simulator to a large number of ions creates a fully-controllable quantum system that becomes inaccessible to numerical methods. When highly anisotropic trapping potentials are used to confine the ions in the form of a long linear string, several challenges have to be overcome to achieve high-fidelity coherent control of a quantum system extending over hundreds of micrometers. In this paper, we describe a setup for carrying out many-ion quantum simulations including single-ion coherent control that we use for demonstrating entanglement in 50-ion strings. Furthermore, we present a set of experimental techniques probing ion-qubits by Ramsey and Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse sequences that enable detection (and compensation) of power-line-synchronous magnetic-field variations, measurement of path length fluctuations, and of the wavefronts of elliptical laser beams coupling to the ion string.
