• Abstract: Rapid separation of linear crystals of trapped ions into different subsets is critical for realizing trapped ion quantum computing architectures where ions are rearranged in trap arrays to achieve all-to-all connectivity between qubits. We introduce a general theoretical framework that can be used to describe the separation of same-species and mixed-species crystals into smaller subsets. The framework relies on an efficient description of the evolution of Gaussian motional states under quadratic Hamiltonians that only requires a special solution of the classical equations of motion of the ions to describe their quantum evolution under the influence of a time-dependent applied potential and the ions' mutual Coulomb repulsion. We provide time-dependent applied potentials suitable for separation of a mixed species three-ion crystal on timescales similar to that of free expansion driven by Coulomb repulsion, with all modes along the crystal axis starting and ending close to their ground states. Three separately-confined mixed species ions can be combined into a crystal held in a single well without energy gain by time-reversal of this separation process.

  We characterize the steady-state entanglement in connection with the spatial structure of a small chain of three ions dispersively coupled with a pumped optical cavity. We identify scenarios leading to entangled steady states, analyze the effect of defect formation upon entanglement between different system partitions, and observe the presence of multipartite quantum correlations.

  A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins. These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field. We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.

  We develop a full microscopic theory for a nonlinear phase space filling (NPSF) in strongly coupled two-dimensional polaritonic lattices. We go beyond the existing theoretical description and discover the broad scope of regimes where NPSF crucially modifies the optical response. Our findings can help describing recent observations of strong nonlinearity in heterobilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides.

  We propose a new architecture for trapped ion quantum computing that combines optical tweezers delivering qubit state-dependent local potentials with oscillating electric fields. Since the electric field allows for long-range qubit-qubit interactions mediated by the center-of-mass motion of the ion crystal alone, it is inherently scalable to large ion crystals.

  We introduce a novel algorithmic cooling protocol for transferring phonons from poorly- to efficiently-cooled modes.

We reach the lowest temperature reported for a highly charged ion, with a residual temperature of only $Tlesssim200mathrmmu K$ in each of the two modes.
