Experimental Issues in Coherent Quantum-State Manipulation of Trapped Atomic Ions

Methods for, and limitations to, the generation of entangled states of trapped atomic ions are examined. As much as possible, state manipulations are described in terms of quantum logic operations since the conditional dynamics implicit in quantum logic is central to the creation of entanglement. Ke...
