• Abstract: Large-scale programmable trapped ion hardware, featuring high gate fidelity and long coherence times, is promising for realizing a practical fault-tolerant quantum computer (FTQC). However, individual addressing (IA) methods, which are important for implementing programmable gates in near-term quantum devices, can lead to undesired errors between the target ions and neighboring ions. In this work, we present a low-crosstalk optical addressing system based on multiple optical objectives and acousto-optic deflectors (AODs) with a symmetrical configuration. Two counter-propagating Raman operation beams are both tightly focused, generating an overlapping spot with a waist radius of approximately $1~\upmu\mathrm{m}$, to address the target ion. As a result, IA crosstalk, characterized by Rabi rate crosstalk on the spectator ion, is measured to be $1.19(5)\times10^{-3}$, with the two ions separated by approximately 5.5~$\upmu\mathrm{m}$. This low-crosstalk optical addressing system holds promise for high-fidelity entangling operations, and the symmetrically-configured AODs in our method can be readily extended to two dimensions to address a two-dimensional ion crystal.

  Crosstalk between target and neighboring spectator qubits due to spillover of control signals is a major error source in quantum computers. We show that in our laser-driven trapped-ion system coherent crosstalk error can be modelled as residual $Xhatsigma_phi$ interaction. We propose and demonstrate a crosstalk suppression scheme that eliminates all first-order crosstalk, yet only requires local control by driving rotations solely on the target qubits.

This type of errors affects spectator qubits that, ideally, should remain unaltered during the application of single- and two-qubit quantum gates addressed at a different set of active qubits. We microscopically model crosstalk errors from first principles and present a detailed study showing the importance of using a coherent vs incoherent error modelling and, moreover, discuss strategies to actively suppress this crosstalk at the gate level.
