Abstract

Ion traps are a promising platform for the realization of high-performance quantum computers. To enable the future scalability of these systems, integrated photonic components for guiding and manipulating laser light on chip-scale are important. Such passive optical components offer μm-beam radii due to their proximity to the ions. To achieve full optical control over the ions, the manipulation of light polarization is essential. We present the first simulation results for different grating outcouplers and their applications on ion trap chips.
