Benchmarking quantum technologies with trapped ions - From atoms to molecules!
Dr. Philipp Schindler (Institut für Experimentalphysik, Uni Innsbruck, Österreich)

I will review our effort to build scalable quantum information processors with trapped atomic ions. In particular, I will focus on experiments to benchmark quantum operations that allow to predict the performance of quantum error correction. I will then discuss how to adapt these operations and benchmarking techniques to characterize ultrafast dynamics in single molecular ions.
