Abstract

We study the consequence of the frequency errors of individual oscillators on the scalability of quantum computing based on nanomechanical resonators. We show the fidelity change of the quantum operation due to the frequency shifts numerically. We present a method to perfectly compensate for these negative effects. Our method is robust to whatever large frequency errors.

Scalability of quantum computing based on nanomechanical resonators

Li-gong Zhou, Ming Gao, Jinlin Peng +1 more

We study scalability of quantum computing based on nanomechanical resonators (NAMRs), including the consequences of the effective next-nearest-neighbor spin-spin couplings induced by the NAMRs, NAMR frequency errors, and NAMR-spin coupling errors on the scalability of quantum computing based on NAMRs. We show the fidelity change of the quantum operation due to these errors numerically. Switchable interactions between NAMRs can be achieved by adding control gates. Based on this modification, we present a method to perfectly avoid the next-nearest-neighbor spin-spin couplings and compensate for the negative effects due to the frequency errors and spin coupling errors.

Consequences of unitary evolution of coupled qubit-resonator systems for stabilizing circuits in surface codes

H. W. L. Naus, R. Versluis

Surface codes based on stabilizer circuits may pave the way for large scale fault-tolerant quantum computation. The surface code uses only single- and two-qubit gates and the error threshold falls close to 1% for a large range of errors. Among the most promising candidates to physically implement such circuits and codes are superconducting qubits coupled by resonators. We investigate a X and Z stabilizing circuit realized by two data qubits, two ancillas and four resonators. The aim is to assess the consequences of unitary evolution of the interacting system, in particular for given stable initial states, on fidelities and error syndrome probabilities. We model the system with a Jaynes-Tavis-Cummings Hamiltonian and construct the low-excitation level evolution operators. The analysis is limited to two stable input states. We assume an ideal system with perfect gates, perfect measurements and no decoherence or leakage. Our analysis shows that the capture probabilities after the execution of a single stabilizer round are not equal to 100%, but vary between 99.2% and 99.99%. This is caused solely by the unitary evolution of the interacting system. Two consecutive rounds of stabilizer measurements result in capture probability values that depend heavily on the duration of the evolution, but vary between 0% and 99%. Also due to the unitary evolution, the final state of the data qubits leaves the the four-dimensional subspace, which results in a state fidelity oscillating between 0 and 1. Even if an error on the qubits is captured, the correcting operation on the qubit will not bring the qubit to the original state. The errors induced by the Hamiltonian evolution of the system cannot be interpreted nor classified as commonly appearing errors. Additional or augmented quantum error correction may be required to compensate these effects of resonator-qubit interaction.

STABILITY OF THE QUANTUM FOURIER TRANSFORMATION ON THE ISING QUANTUM COMPUTER

G. L. Celardo, Carlos Pineda, Marko Žnidarič

We analyze the influence of errors on the implementation of the quantum Fourier transformation. Two kinds of errors are studied: (i) systematic errors due to off-resonant transitions and (ii) errors due to an external perturbation. The scaling of errors with system parameters and the number of qubits is analyzed. To suppress off-resonant transitions, we use correcting pulses while in order to suppress errors due to an external perturbation, we use an improved quantum Fourier transformation algorithm. As a result, the fidelity of quantum computation is increased by several orders of magnitude and is thus stable in a much wider range of physical parameters.

Superconducting qubits coupled to nanoelectromechanical resonators: An architecture for solid-state quantum-information processing

Michael R. Geller, Andrew N. Cleland

We describe the design for a scalable, solid-state quantum-information-processing architecture based on the integration of GHz-frequency nanomechanical resonators with Josephson tunnel junctions, which has the potential for demonstrating a variety of single- and multiqubit operations critical to quantum computation. The computational qubits are eigenstates of large-area, current-biased Josephson junctions, manipulated and measured using strobed external circuitry. Two or more of these phase qubits are capacitively coupled to a high-quality-factor piezoelectric nanoelectromechanical disk resonator, which forms the backbone of our architecture, and which enables coherent coupling of the qubits. The integrated system is analogous to one or more few-level atoms (the Josephson junction qubits) in an electromagnetic cavity (the nanomechanical resonator). However, unlike existing approaches using atoms in electromagnetic cavities, here we can individually tune the level spacing of the ``atoms'' and control their ``electromagnetic'' interaction strength. We show theoretically that quantum states prepared in a Josephson junction can be passed to the nanomechanical resonator and stored there, and then can be passed back to the original junction or transferred to another with high fidelity. The resonator can also be used to produce maximally entangled Bell states between a pair of Josephson junctions. Many such junction-resonator complexes can be assembled in a hub-and-spoke layout, resulting in a large-scale quantum circuit. Our proposed architecture combines desirable features of both solid-state and cavity quantum electrodynamics approaches, and could make quantum-information processing possible in a scalable, solid-state environment.

Efficient quantum computing insensitive to phase errors

Bertrand Georgeot, Dima L. Shepelyansky

We show that certain computational algorithms can be simulated on a quantum computer with exponential efficiency and be insensitive to phase errors. Our explicit algorithm simulates accurately the classical chaotic dynamics for exponentially many orbits even when the quantum fidelity drops to zero. Such phase-insensitive algorithms open new possibilities for computation on realistic quantum computers.

Single-qubit operations on the Kane quantum computer

Cameron J. Wellard, Lloyd C. L. Hollenberg, Chris I. Pakes

In this paper we investigate the implementation of single-qubit operations in the Kane solid-state quantum computer by Rabi flipping the nuclear qubits via the application of resonant radio-frequency fields. Specifically, we calculate the change in the resonance frequency of the nuclear qubits with the application of electric potentials to metallic control gates designed to address individual qubits, as well as the effects these fields have on neighbouring qubits. We find that although the resonance frequencies of the neighbouring qubits are shifted, it is still theoretically possible to implement single-qubit operations with the fidelity required for large-scale quantum computation using this technique.
