The Sørensen-Mølmer gate is an entangling gate for ion qubits [1]. The entangled state is obtained by the application of a bichromatic light beam which collectively drives the ions. This leads to an entangling gate if certain conditions on gate time, drive frequency and amplitude are fulfilled. These conditions can be derived from the propagator. However, the gate is not perfect. In [1] the authors apply the Lamb-Dicke approximation and neglect some fast rotating terms as well as the single qubit rotation before calculating the propagator. This leads to gate errors. We investigate how the approximations affect the gate fidelity and explore methods to avoid those errors and make the gate more robust against heating.
