Abstract

We propose a many-qubit network with cavity QED by encoding qubits in decoherence-free subspace, based on which we can implement many-logic-qubit conditional gates by means of cavity-assisted interaction with single-photon pulses. Our scheme could not only resist collective dephasing errors, but also much reduce the implementational steps compared to conventional methods doing the same job, and we can also complete communications between two arbitrary nodes. We show the details by implementing a three-logic-qubit Toffoli gate and explore the experimental feasibility and challenge based on currently achievable cavity QED technologies.

Hua Wei, Zhi-Jiao Deng, Xiaolong Zhang +1 more

Quantum state transfer and teleportation, with qubits encoded in internal states of atoms in cavities, among spatially separated nodes of a quantum network in a decoherence-free subspace are proposed, based on a cavity-assisted interaction with single-photon pulses. We show in detail the implementation of a logic-qubit Hadamard gate and a two-logic-qubit conditional gate, and discuss the experimental feasibility of our scheme.

Two-qubit Grover search in a dephasing-free subspace in cavity QED

Hua Wei, Ranran Fang, Jibing Liu +3 more

Based on a cavity-assisted interaction by single-photon pulses, we propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit Grover search in a distributed quantum network, with qubits encoded in pairs of atoms in a dephasing-free subspace (DFS), which could strongly suppress collective dephasing errors and would be helpful for enhancing the fidelity of implementation. Moreover, we show that the preparation of entangled states and transfer of quantum states can be completed in our improved scheme, which is very important for the compatibility and scalability of the quantum network.

Quantum Gate Operations in Decoherence-Free Subspace with Superconducting Charge Qubits inside a Cavity

Wang Yi-min, Zhou Yan-Li, Lin-Mei Liang +1 more

We propose a feasible scheme to achieve universal quantum gate operations in decoherence-free subspace with superconducting charge qubits placed in a microwave cavity. Single-logic-qubit gates can be realized with cavity assisted interaction, which possesses the advantages of unconventional geometric gate operation. The two-logic-qubit controlled-phase gate between subsystems can be constructed with the help of a variable electrostatic transformer. The collective decoherence can be successfully avoided in our well-designed system. Moreover, GHZ state for logical qubits can also be easily produced in this system.

Quantum computation in decoherence-free subspaces for overcoming bit-flip error in cavity QED

陈月月, 刘呈普, 冯勋立 +3 more

Universal quantum computation overcoming influnce of bit-flip error is realized by suppressing collective decoherence with decoherence-free subspace method. The scheme is based on cavity QED system. A logical bit is encoded by two adjacent atoms trapped in a cavity, and a four-dimensional decoherence-free subspace is constructed to suppress the collective bit reversal error. By adjusting the coupling between the external optical field and cavity, two noncommutative single-qubit operations and a controlled phase gate are implemented in decoherence-free subspace. Universal quantum computation overcoming the collective bit reversal error is realized.

Toffoli gate originating from a single resonant interaction with cavity QED

Changyong Chen, Mang Feng, Kelin Gao

We propose a potentially practical scheme to implement a three-qubit Toffoli gate by a single resonant interaction in cavity QED. The scheme does not require two-qubit controlled-NOT gates but uses a three-qubit phase gate and two Hadamard gates, where the phase gate can be implemented by only a single resonant interaction of the atoms with the cavity mode. Both the situations with and without cavity decay are considered. We discuss the advantages and the experimental feasibility of our scheme.

Implementing a multi-target-qubit controlled-not gate with logical qubits outside a decoherence-free subspace and its application in creating quantum entangled states

Chui‐Ping Yang, Qi-Ping Su, Yu Zhang +1 more

In general, implementing a multi-logical-qubit gate by manipulating quantum states in a decoherence-free subspace (DFS) becomes more complex and difficult when increasing the number of logical qubits. In this work, we propose an idea to realize quantum gates by manipulating quantum states outside their DFS but having the states of the logical qubits remain in their DFS before and after the gate operation. This proposal has the following features: (i) because the states are manipulated outside the DFS, the multiqubit gate implementation can be simplified when compared to realizing a multiqubit gate via manipulating quantum states within the DFS, which usually requires unitary operations over a large DFS, and (ii) because the states of the logical qubits return to the DFS after the gate operation, the errors caused by decoherence during the gate operation are not accumulated for a long-running calculation, and the states of the logical qubits are immune to decoherence when they are stored. Based on this proposal, we then present a way for realizing a multi-target-qubit controlled-not gate using logical qubits encoded in a decoherence-free subspace against collective dephasing. This gate is realized by employing qutrits (three-level quantum systems) placed in a cavity or coupled to a resonator. This proposal has the following advantages: (i) the states of the logical qubits return to their DFS after the gate operation; (ii) the gate can be implemented with only a few basic operations; (iii) the gate operation time is independent of the number of logical qubits; (iv) this gate can be deterministically implemented because no measurement is needed; (v) the intermediate higher-energy level for all qutrits is not occupied during the entire operation, thus decoherence from this level is greatly suppressed; (vi) this proposal is universal and can be applied to realize the proposed gate using natural atoms or artificial atoms (e.g., quantum dots, nitrogen-vacancy centers, and various superconducting qutrits, etc.) placed in a cavity or coupled to a resonator. As an application, we also show how to apply this gate to create a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) entangled state of multiple logical qubits encoded in DFS, and further investigate the experimental feasibility for creating the GHZ state of three logical qubits in the DFS, by using six superconducting transmon qutrits coupled to a one-dimensional coplanar waveguide resonator.
