The interaction Hamiltonian that governs the dynamics between trapped ions and laser light [1] is well studied and understood in the limit of low laser powers, leading to simple dynamics. However, at high powers, off-resonant coupling to multiple carrier and motional transitions is not negligible, leading to more complex and richer dynamics, with Hamiltonians exhibiting non-commuting terms.
In quantum computing with trapped ions, fast and versatile interactions that require high laser powers are important. It is of interest to either suppress those off-resonant terms or harness them in a controlled way. In this talk, we present our experimental work on utilising non-commuting terms to create two-qubit entanglement [2]. Furthermore, we evaluate how to apply this idea in the context of hybrid spin-motion systems. Secondly, we will show how we employ a phase stable optical lattice to coherently suppress a non-commuting error source that appears in the conventional Molmer-Sorensen interaction. This approach has the potential to allow for fast and high-fidelity entangling gates which are not limited by scattering errors.
