This study presents a scalable method for controlling ion crystals in a grid-based surface-electrode Paul trap, enabling efficient transport and sorting of multispecies ions. The approach utilizes a novel transport primitive called 'center to left or right' (C2LR), which allows for independent control of ion movement in each grid site using a single digital signal and a fixed number of analog signals. The C2LR primitive enables conditional operations such as site-dependent swapping and reordering of ions between adjacent grid sites. The method was tested with two experimental systems containing $ {}^{171}Yb^{+}+{}^{138}Ba^{+} $ and $ {}^{137}Ba^{+}-{}^{88}Sr^{+} $ ions, demonstrating subquanta motional excitation in axial modes at exchange rates of 2.5 kHz. The results show that the crystals remain in their motional ground state during high-speed transport, paving the way for large-scale, 2D ion traps with practical wiring requirements. The study also highlights the potential for extending these techniques to implement other conditional operations in the quantum charge-coupled device (QCCD) architecture, such as gates, initialization, and measurement. The work demonstrates the feasibility of scalable ion transport in a grid-based Paul trap, with implications for the development of larger, more efficient trapped ion quantum processors.This study presents a scalable method for controlling ion crystals in a grid-based surface-electrode Paul trap, enabling efficient transport and sorting of multispecies ions.
