The U.S. Army Research Office (ARO) in partnership with the National Security Agency (NSA) is soliciting proposals for research in Trapped Ion Qubits. This BAA has three research goals; (a) substantially reduce noise levels detrimental to high fidelity gates in trapped ion systems and to improve the stability of these gates once achieved; (b) explore novel quantum information encoding schemes and/or entanglement generation schemes with trapped ion systems; (c) development of critical supporting technology required for successful highly stable high fidelity trapped ion systems. Proposals are sought that address one of the three BAA goals: 1. Highly stable high fidelity trapped ion systems 2. Novel encoding and entanglement generation schemes 3. Key supporting technology to enable highly stable high fidelity trapped ion systems
