Intensity stabilisation of optical pulse sequences for coherent control of laser-driven qubits

We demonstrate a system for intensity stabilisation of optical pulse sequences used in laser-driven quantum control of trapped ions. Intensity instability is minimised by active stabilisation of the power (over a dynamic range of > 10 4 ) and position of the focused beam at the ion. The fractiona...

description We demonstrate a system for intensity stabilisation of optical pulse sequences used in laser-driven quantum control of trapped ions. Intensity instability is minimised by active stabilisation of the power (over a dynamic range of > 10 4 ) and position of the focused beam at the ion. The fractional Allan deviations in power were found to be < 2.2 × 10 - 4 for averaging times from 1 to 16,384 s. Over similar times, the absolute Allan deviation of the beam position is < 0.1   μ m for a 45  μ m beam diameter. Using these residual power and position instabilities, we estimate the associated contributions to infidelity in example qubit logic gates to be below 10 - 6 per gate.
