"mitigates without complex additional components, using dual-type qubits encoding quantum information across 2 types of quantum states, increasing flexibility while reducing undesirable crosstalk between qubits/ 96.3% operational fidelity... 1 type carrying quantum information, other for auxiliary operations, entangling qubits encoded in these 2 types... single 532 nm laser drives Raman transitions... future: better optical path stabilization, better trap frequency locking... scalable, reliable quantum computers"
