• Abstract: We present a robust quantum optimal control framework for implementing fast entangling gates on ion-trap quantum processors. The framework leverages tailored laser pulses to drive the multiple vibrational sidebands of the ions to create phonon-mediated entangling gates and, unlike the state of the art, requires neither weak-coupling Lamb-Dicke approximation nor perturbation treatment. With the application of gradient-based optimal control, it enables finding amplitude- and phase-modulated laser control protocols that work beyond the Lamb-Dicke regime, promising gate speed at the order of microseconds comparable to the characteristic trap frequencies. Also, robustness requirements on the temperature of the ions and initial optical phase can be conveniently included to pursue high-quality fast gates against experimental imperfections. Our approach represents a step in speeding up quantum gates to achieve larger quantum circuits for quantum computation and simulation, and thus can find applications in near-future experiments.

  Two-qubit gates in trapped-ion quantum computers are generated by applying spin-dependent forces that temporarily entangle the internal state of the ion with its motion. Laser pulses are carefully designed to generate a maximally entangling gate between the ions while minimizing any residual entanglement between the motion and the ion. We improve the robustness of frequency-modulated Molmer-Sorensen gates to motional mode-frequency offsets by optimizing the average performance over a range of systematic errors.
