Abstract Understanding how strong coupling and memory effects influence energy levels in open quantum systems is a fundamental challenge. Here, we experimentally probe these effects in a two-level open system coupled to a single-mode quantum environment, using Ramsey interferometry in a trapped ion.

In quantum technologies, it is essential to understand and exploit the interplay of light and matter. We introduce an approach creating and maintaining the coherence of four oscillators: a global microwave reference field, a polarization-gradient traveling-wave pattern of light, and the spin and motional states of a single trapped ion.

Abstract We investigate a scalable trapped-ion array architecture for quantum control of many particles, extending techniques to access multiple dimensions. Our experimental study focuses on automated loading and shuttling of single Mg+ ions within our platform that contains up to 13 trapping sites in a three-dimensional arrangement.
