We　propose　a　method　for　the　generation　of　superpositions　of　two-mode　coherent　states　for　the　center-of-mass　and　relative　vibrational　modes　of　two　trapped　ions.　In　the　scheme　the　ions　are　driven　by　a　single　travelling-wave　laser　field　tuned　to　the　carrier.　Then　a　measurement　of　the　internal　states　collapses　the　vibrational　modes　to　the　entangled　coherent　state.　©　International　Academic　Publishers.
