Fig. 4

a Measured cross-talk between the single ion ensemble (orange) and two ion ensemble (light and dark blue). Rabi oscillations with the D-state (mF = −1) were measured while addressing the single ion ensemble (orange). Cross-talk was evident in the slow transition rate of the nearer ion (light blue) in the two ion ensemble (light and dark blue), and was more attenuated for the more distant ion. b A similar measurement as a, but instead addressing the two ion ensemble (light blue and dark blue). Cross-talk was evident in the slow transition rate of the single ion ensemble (orange). Error bars show the standard error. c Relative cross-talk intensities of transition light. Ratios were calculated from fits of Rabi frequencies and plotted for each trap site.
