Robert Niffenegger
The UMass Positive Ion lab is developing integrated technologies such as photonics for trapped ion quantum information processors (QIPs). One of the main obstacles for large scale and fault tolerant quantum computation with trapped ion qubits is the difficulty of individually addressing multiple ions using external optical lenses. Integrated photonics may light the way towards large scale quantum computers and practical applications.
