Arbitrary quantum circuits on a fully integrated two-qubit computation register for a trapped-ion quantum processor

We report on the implementation of arbitrary circuits on a universal two-qubit register that can act as the computational module in a trapped-ion quantum computer based on the quantum charge-coupled device architecture. A universal set of quantum gates is implemented on a two-ion Coulomb crystal of ${}^9$Be${}^{+}$ ions using only chip-integrated microwave addressing. Individual-ion addressing is implemented using microwave micromotion sideband transitions; we obtain upper limits on addressing cross-talk in the register. Arbitrary two-qubit operations are characterized using the cycle benchmarking protocol.
