Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, by using strings of trapped ions, we have conducted basic researches on the quantum simulation of physical models that capture the basic chracteristics of strongly interacting electron systems in solids and on phonon-based quantum information processing. We developed an optical system that enabled the excitation of individual ions with high intensities, and by using it we performed the quantum simulation of the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model with 2-4 calcium ions, observing quantum phase transitions between Mott insulators and superfluids. In addition, we observed, for the first time, a quantum interference of two phonons (Hong-Ou-Mandel effect) and a 1-phonon quantum walk in 4 sites.
