Downsizing optical components to control ion species in quantum computation is a vital turning point. Integrating routing and focusing elements into the chip architecture can substantially suppress environmental distortions and boost scalability. We investigated integrated waveguides and grating couplers to produce a linearly polarised Gaussian beam with a predefined emission angle, focus height and the size of the beam at this position. The studies were carried out using Lumerical FDTD simulation software and a subsequent post-processing routine. To address the different wavelengths required for the entire operation of the ion-based QCs, we have evaluated the capabilities and performance of our structures by taking advantage of the two most promising material platforms: Si3N4 and AlN. Our results can help overcome current limitations toward the multi-ion quantum system.
