The push to implement quantum information processing (QIP) with trapped ions has led to a number of technological advances that can be leveraged towards this goal, but also allow for novel experimental approaches outside the original scope. The most spectacular example for the latter is the quantum-logic ion clock, at present the most precise frequency standard, with potential for further improvement. This talk will cover some of the recent advances in QIP with trapped ions at NIST and give a few examples besides the quantum logic ion clock that illustrate the potential of trapped ions for quantum simulations of complex designer Hamiltonians, quantum limited measurements and high resolution spectroscopy.
