abstract

We demonstrate a novel experimental toolset that enables irreversible multi-qubit operations on a quantum platform. To exemplify our approach, we realize two elementary nonunitary operations: the OR and NOR gates. The electronic states of two trapped $^{40}$Ca$^{+}$ ions encode the logical information, and a co-trapped $^{88}$Sr$^{+}$ ion provides the irreversibility of the gate by a dissipation channel through sideband cooling. We measure $87\%$ and $81\%$ success rates for the OR and NOR gates, respectively. The presented methods are a stepping stone towards other nonunitary operations such as in quantum error correction and quantum machine learning.
