• Abstract summary: We propose to combine neutral atom and trapped ion qubits in one scalable modular architecture that uses shuttling of individual neutral atoms in optical tweezers. The proposed protocol is as follows: a tweezer-trapped neutral atom qubit is brought close to a trapped ion in an ion chain serving as a module of a larger quantum computer. The neutral atom is quickly moved to another, nearby trapped ion chain in the same modular ion trap and entangled with an ion in that chain, thus entangling the two separate ion chains.

• Abstract: We propose to combine neutral atom and trapped ion qubits in one scalable modular architecture that uses shuttling of individual neutral atoms in optical tweezers to realize atomic interconnects between trapped ion quantum registers. These interconnects are deterministic, and thus may be performed on-demand. The proposed protocol is as follows: a tweezer-trapped neutral atom qubit is brought close to a trapped ion in an ion chain serving as a module of a larger quantum computer, and an entangling gate is performed between the two qubits. Then the neutral atom is quickly moved to another, nearby trapped ion chain in the same modular ion trap and entangled with an ion in that chain, thus entangling the two separate ion chains. The optical dipole potential of the tweezer beam for the neutral atom does not measurably affect the trapped ions, while the RF ion trap does not affect the neutral atom. With realistic tweezer trap parameters, the neutral atom can be moved over millimeter scale distance in a few tens of microseconds, thus enabling a remote entanglement generation rate of over 10^3/s even with very modest assumptions for the atom-ion quantum gate speed, and possibly up to 10^4/s, which is two orders of magnitude higher than the current state-of-the-art with photonic interconnects.

  We show that when two atomic qubits in two largely separated optical tweezers interact with a single trapped ion through Rydberg excitation of the atoms, there exists an ion-atom interaction. We employ this mediated interaction to demonstrate two-qubit control phase gate operation with 97% fidelity by addressing the individual atomic qubits with lasers.

• A photon-interfaced ten qubit quantum network node [0.0]
  We entangle each individual matter-qubit in a register of ten to a separate travelling photon. An average ion-photon Bell state fidelity of 92(1)% is achieved, for an average probability for detecting each single photon of 9.1(8)%. The technique is directly scalable to larger ion-qubit registers and opens up the near-term possibility of entangling distributed networks of trapped-ion quantum processors, sensing arrays and clocks.

• Trapped ion-mediated interactions between two distant trapped atoms [0.0]
  We show that when two largely separated atoms interact with a trapped ion via Rydberg excitation of the atoms, the ion-mediated interaction exceeds the direct atom-atom interaction by several orders of magnitude. Since the motion of the atoms is much slower than the motion of the ion, we resort to Born-Oppenheimer approximation to calculate the ion-mediated adiabatic potential.

  Most demanding application for a large-scale quantum computer will require ordered arrays. By configuring an electronic-grade diamond substrate with a biased surface graphene electrode connected to charge-sensitive electronics, it is possible to demonstrate single ion implantation for ions stopping between 30 and 130nm deep from a typical ion source. This allows the construction of ordered arrays of single atoms with associated colour centres that paves the way for the fabrication of deterministic colour center networks in a monolithic device.

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.
