A new Quantum Processor Architecture
Michael Joseph, Khaled M. Elleithy, Mohamed Mohamed
This paper analyzes the current state of the two leading Quantum Computing architectures, namely Ion Trap and Super Conducting, outlines the challenges facing both methods and proposes a new architecture that incorporates the best aspect of both techniques along with a novel method to isolate the Qubits. This new architecture retains the Ion Trapped architecture ability to operate its Qubits at near room temperature while eliminating its scalability issue by utilizing a novel shielding technique and by adopting the surface code layout of the superconducting architecture. By eliminating the extremely low-temperature requirement of the superconducting architecture, this new architecture is poised to be cost-effective, scalable, and practical for mass production.
