In situ midcircuit qubit measurement and reset in a single-species trapped-ion quantum computing system

Journal Article Physical Review Research · December 31, 2025 We implement midcircuit measurement and reset (MCMR) operations on a full-scale trapped-ion quantum computing system by using metastable qubit states in ... Full text Cite

Next-generation trapped-ion quantum computing system

Conference Quantum 2 0 Proceedings Optica Quantum 2 0 Conference and Exhibition · January 1, 2023 In this work we discuss the progress of commissioning the next-generation trapped-ion quantum computing system. Heating rates, coherence times, background gas collision rates, individual-addressing cross-talk and other factors contributing to the gate fide ... Full text Cite

Exchange bias without directional anisotropy in permalloy/CoO bilayers

Journal Article Physical Review B · October 1, 2021 We utilize transverse ac susceptibility measurements to characterize magnetic anisotropy in archetypal exchange-bias bilayers of ferromagnet permalloy (Py) and antiferromagnet CoO. Unidirectional anisotropy is observed for thin Py but becomes negligible at ... Full text Open Access Cite
