Abstract
We report high-fidelity laser-beam-induced quantum logic gates on magnetic-field-insensitive qubits comprised of hyperfine states in ions with a memory coherence time of more than 1 s. We demonstrate single-qubit gates with an error per gate of . By creating a Bell state with a deterministic two-qubit gate, we deduce a gate error of . We characterize the errors in our implementation and discuss methods to further reduce imperfections towards values that are compatible with fault-tolerant processing at realistic overhead.
