We investigate the multiphoton resonance and multi-ion excitation in a single-mode cavity with identical vibrating ionqubits, which enables the tripartite interaction among the internal states of ions, the cavity mode and the ions' vibrational motion. Under particular resonant conditions, we de...

Description
Summary:We investigate the multiphoton resonance and multi-ion excitation in a single-mode cavity with identical vibrating ionqubits, which enables the tripartite interaction among the internal states of ions, the cavity mode and the ions' vibrational motion. Under particular resonant conditions, we derive effective Hamiltonians for the three-photon and the three-excitation cases, respectively, and find that the magnitude of the effective coupling energy can be tuned through the vibration mode, allowing for manipulations of ion-photon coupling in experiments. Furthermore, we analyze the system dynamics of our proposed setups and demonstrate the Rabi oscillation behaviors in these systems with dissipation effects. We propose our system as a versatile platform for the exploration of entangled multiqubit physics.
