Qudits, the generalization of qubits to d-level quantum systems, offer a powerful extension of conventional two-level quantum computing. Trapped ions represent a platform for realizing such systems, as their intrinsic multilevel structure naturally supports qudit encoding, providing access to higher-dimensional Hilbert spaces and enabling enriched computational capabilities. Fully exploiting qudit-based architectures requires the realization of efficient quantum gates for qudits. A recently demonstrated light-shift gate mechanism constitutes such an operation, creating genuine entanglement between two qudits, while matching the system’s local dimension [1].
We are developing an experimental setup to implement this entangling gate on a quantum computer using trapped 40Ca+ ions as information carriers. The setup is designed to address single ions using a pair of counterpropagating Raman beams, which generate the state dependent dipole force required to operate this gate.
