“…Integrated optics are not easily made reconfigurable, so their alignment to the ions must be partially built into the trapping architecture. The second problem is that dielectric surfaces are susceptible to light-induced charging, which results in strong and difficult-to-control forces on the ions, inducing micromotion, large displacements, or even making the ions untrappable [79][80][81]. Nonetheless, these challenges have started to be addressed in the last several years by a number of groups integrating various optical elements with ion traps, including microfabricated phase Fresnel lenses [82,83], embedded micromirrors [84,85] and fibers [45,86], transparent trap electrodes [44], nanophotonic dielectric waveguides [87], macroscopic optical cavities [46,[88][89][90][91], and microscopic, fiber-based cavities [92].…”
