Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe techniques for optical alignment using a reflective dove prism. For example, a system for optical alignment is described that includes an assembly having a housing with three separate, reflecting structures positioned to produce three reflections of one or more laser beams or one or more images, and a controller configured to control a rotation of the assembly about a pivot point to produce a tilt in orientation of the one or more lasers beams or the one or more images that is twice an angle of rotation of the assembly. Another system and a method for aligning laser beams using a housing with three separate, reflecting structures in a trapped ion quantum information processing (QIP) system are also described.

Abstract: The disclosure describes various aspects of different techniques for flexible touch sensors and method for wide-field imaging of an atom or ion trap. A touch sensor is described for controlling movement of a control element for use with the trap that includes an outer structure and an inner structure that holds the control element and moves within the outer structure. The trap is inside an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environment and the outer and inner structures are outside the UHV environment and separated by a UHV window. The control element or elements are brought into proximity of the UHV window in connection with controlling targets at the trap. The inner structure can stop moving within the outer structure to avoid damaging of the UHV window with the control element(s) in response to the inner structure being in physical contact with or within a set proximity of the outer structure.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe techniques for independently controlling an angle (e.g., change in tilt) and/or position (e.g., change in lateral position) of an optical beam. For example, an optical beam control system may include a telescope with rotatable mirrors and lenses configured to provide a path to an optical beam to produce an output optical beam, which in turn is made into parallel optical beams following a diffractive optical element. The optical beam control system may also include a detector system to a beam angle and/or a beam position of one of the parallel optical beams to generate feedback signal or signals to control a rotation of one or more of the mirrors in the telescope such as to adjust the beam angle, the beam position, or both of the parallel optical beams. The optical beam control system may be part of a quantum information processing (QIP) system.
