Abstract: A Heisenberg scaler reduces noise in quantum metrology and includes: a stimulus source that provides physical stimuli; a physical system including quantum sensors that receive a first and second physical stimuli; produces a measured action parameter; receives an perturbation pulse; and produces modal amplitude; an estimation machine that: receives the measured action parameter and produces a zeroth-order value from the measured action parameter; a gradient analyzer that: receives the measured action parameter and produces the measured action parameter and a gradient; the sensor interrogation unit that: receives the modal amplitude; receives the gradient and the measured action parameter; produces the perturbation pulse; and produces a first-order value from the modal amplitude, the gradient, and the measured action parameter; a Heisenberg determination machine that: receives the zeroth-order value; receives the first-order value; and produces a physical scalar from the zeroth-order value and the first-order v

Abstract: The disclosure describes various aspects of a cryogenic trapped-ion system. In an aspect, a method is described that includes bringing a chain of ions in a trap at a cryogenic temperature, the trap being a micro-fabricated trap, and performing quantum computations, simulations, or both using the chain of ions in the trap at the cryogenic temperature. In another aspect, a method is described that includes establishing a zig-zag ion chain in the cryogenic trapped-ion system, detecting a change in a configuration of the zig-zag ion chain, and determining a measurement of the pressure based on the detection in the change in configuration. In another aspect, a method is described that includes measuring a low frequency vibration, generating a control signal based on the measurement to adjust one or more optical components, and controlling the one or more optical components using the control signal.
