I will present our progress towards full quantum control of a single H2+ ion. Our most recent results demonstrate the co-trapping and cooling of single H2+ and 9Be+ ions. The experimental apparatus features a cryogenic ultra-high vacuum chamber, housing a micro-fabricated monolithic linear Paul trap. H2+ is loaded into the trap by electron bombardment of H2. We observe trapping times in excess of 8 hours. We aim to use He buffer gas cooling in combination with quantum logic spectroscopy to initialize the internal state of H2+ in a pure quantum state and implement non-destructive readout.
