Errors in stimulated-Raman-induced logic gates in Ba
is illuminated by a laser that is far-detuned from
optical transitions, and the resulting spontaneous Raman scattering rate is
measured. The observed scattering rate is lower than previous theoretical
estimates. The majority of the discrepancy is explained by a more accurate
treatment of the scattered photon density of states. This work establishes
that, contrary to previous models, there is no fundamental limit to
laser-driven quantum gates from laser-induced spontaneous Raman scattering.Comment: 4 + 2 pages, 4 + 1 figure
