Abstract
The desired interference required for quantum computing may be modified by wave-function oscillations for the implementation of quantum algorithms [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 1615 (2000)]. To diminish such a detrimental effect, we propose a scheme with trapped ion pairs as qubits and apply the scheme to the Grover search. It will be shown that our scheme cannot only carry out a full Grover search, but can also meet the requirement for scalable hot-ion quantum computing. Moreover, the ion-pair qubits in our scheme are more robust against decoherence and the dissipation caused by the environment than single-particle qubits proposed before.
