Trapped-ion Fock-state preparation by potential deformation
We propose protocols to prepare highly excited energy eigenstates of a trapped ion in a harmonic trap which do not use laser pulses to induce transitions among internal levels. Instead the protocols rely on smoothly deforming the trapping potential between single and double wells. The speed of the c...
