abstract
We report the achievement of single-qubit gates with sub-part-per-million error rates, in a trapped-ion $^{43}$Ca$^{+}$ hyperfine clock qubit. We explore the speed/fidelity trade-off for gate times $4.4\leq t_{g}\leq35~\mu$s, and benchmark a minimum error per Clifford gate of $1.5(4) \times 10^{-7}$. Calibration errors are suppressed to $< 10^{-8}$, leaving qubit decoherence ($T_{2}\approx 70$ s), leakage, and measurement as the dominant error contributions. The ion is held above a microfabricated surface-electrode trap which incorporates a chip-integrated microwave resonator for electronic qubit control; the trap is operated at room temperature without magnetic shielding.

Quantum logic operations and algorithms in a single 25-level atomic qudit
A single 137Ba+ ion acts as a 25-level qudit with 99.51% heralded SPAM fidelity, and runs Bernstein-Vazirani and Toffoli circuits on up to four virtual qubits.
