  1. Quantum information processingwith trapped ions FWF SFB QUEST QGATES Industrie Tirol IQI GmbH € $ Hartmut Häffner Institut für Experimentalphysik, Universität Innsbruck and Institut für Quantenoptik und Quanteninformation Innsbruck • Basic experimental techniques • Robust two-particle entanglement • Process tomography of a CNOT gate • Teleportation • Multi-particle entanglement • Outlook Quantum optics VI, 17.5. 2005

  2. Why quantum information? Quantum information offers a completely new view on quantum mechanics: we might “understand” what quantum mechanics is about. • In quantum information you can see natures strange rules at work: do “real“ bizarre Gedanken experiments! • A most fascinating topic is to look at non-local superpositions.

  3. Progress in technology … How many atoms per bit? ENIAC (1947) ~ 2017 number of atoms per bit Pentium 4 (2002) 1 atom per bit 1960 1970 1980 2020 2010 1990 2000 year faster = smaller 1 atom

  5. The fate of visionaries 20th century about the ENIAC: „Where a calculator on the ENIAC is equipped with 18000 vacuum tubes and weighs 30 tons, computers in the future may have only 1000 tubes and weigh only 1 ½ tons.“ Popular Mechanics, March 1949
