Proposal for a two-qubit quantum phase gate for quantum photonic integrated circuits

Abstract

We propose a protocol for a two-qubit quantum phase gate based upon the reflection of photon pulses from a quantum dot in a cavity. Depending on the state of the quantum dot the reflected photons acquire a conditional phase shift. The key ingredient is the ultrafast control of the quantum dot energies by electric fields, which allows for tuning the exciton and biexciton successively into resonance with the cavity mode. The complete dynamics of the gate are simulated, revealing a fidelity of about 0.9. The proposed scheme uses position coding and is therefore well suited to the implementation in an integrated photonic quantum processor.

A scheme for direct implementation of a two-target qubit controlled phase gate with quantum dots in coupled photonic crystal cavities without using classical laser pulses

Xinxin Jiang, Wen‐Xue Cui, Shi Hu +2 more

We propose a scheme to implement a three-qubit controlled phase gate with one control qubit and two target qubits using quantum dots (QDs) in two coupled photonic crystal (PC) cavities A and B. In the scheme, three QDs are embedded in two coupled photonic crystal cavities and the transitions between the levels are only coupled to the cavity modes without being driven by the classical laser fields. We investigate the dynamics of the system consisting of resonant and off-resonant couplings between the cavity modes and QDs and solve the time-dependent Schrodinger equation analytically. The results show that a three-qubit controlled phase gate can be directly implemented using one operational step, by exchanging a single photon between the PC cavities A and B. This scheme greatly simplifies the gate operation in experiments.

Quantum controlled phase gate based on two nonresonant quantum dots trapped in two coupled photonic crystal cavities

Jian‐Qi Zhang, Ya-Fei Yu, Xun‐Li Feng +1 more

We propose a scheme for realizing two-qubit quantum phase gates with two nonidentical quantum dots trapped in two coupled photonic crystal cavities and driven by classical laser fields. During the gate operation, neither the cavity modes nor the quantum dots are excited, so the decoherence can be suppressed. The system can acquire a phase conditional upon the states of the quantum dots, which can be used to realize the controlled phase gate.

Two-qubit controlled phase gate based on two nonresonant quantum dots trapped in a coupled-cavity array

Jian‐Qi Zhang, Ya-Fei Yu, Zhi‐Ming Zhang

We propose a scheme for realizing quantum controlled phase gates with two nonidentical quantum dots trapped in two coupled photonic crystal cavities and driven by classical laser fields under the condition of non-small hopping limit. During the gate operation, neither the quantum dots are excited, while the system can acquire different phases conditional upon the different states of the quantum dots. Along with single-qubit operations, a two-qubit controlled phase gate can be achieved.

Multiqubit tunable phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling n qubits in a cavity

Chui-Ping Yang, Shi Biao Zheng, Franco Nori

We propose how to realize a multiqubit tunable phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling $n$ qubits with four-level quantum systems in a cavity or coupled to a resonator. Each of the $n$ two-qubit controlled-phase (cp) gates involved in this multiqubit phase gate has a shared control qubit but a different target qubit. In this proposal, the two lowest levels of each system represent the two logical states of a qubit while the two higher-energy intermediate levels are used for the gate implementation. The method presented here operates essentially by creating a single photon through the control qubit, which then induces a phase shift to the state of each target qubit. The phase shifts on each target qubit can be adjusted by changing the Rabi frequencies of the pulses applied to the target qubit systems. The operation time for the gate implementation is independent of the number of qubits, and neither adjustment of the qubit level spacings nor adjustment of the cavity mode frequency during the gate operation is required by this proposal. It is also noted that this approach can be applied to implement certain types of significant multiqubit phase gates (e.g., the multiqubit phase gate consisting of $n$ two-qubit cp gates which are key elements in quantum Fourier transforms). A possible physical implementation of our approach is presented. Our proposal is quite general and can be applied to physical systems such as various types of superconducting devices coupled to a resonator and trapped atoms in a cavity.

Quantum phase gate based on electromagnetically induced transparency in optical cavities

Halyne Silva Borges, Celso J. Villas-Bôas

We theoretically investigate the implementation of a quantum controlled-phase gate in a system constituted by a single atom inside an optical cavity, based on the electromagnetically induced transparency effect. First we show that a probe pulse can experience a $\ensuremath{\pi}$ phase shift due to the presence or absence of a classical control field. Considering the interplay of the cavity-EIT effect and the quantum memory process, we demonstrated a controlled-phase gate between two single photons. To this end, first one needs to store a (control) photon in the ground atomic states. In the following, a second (target) photon must impinge on the atom-cavity system. Depending on the atomic state, this second photon will be either transmitted or reflected, acquiring different phase shifts. This protocol can then be easily extended to multiphoton systems, i.e., keeping the control photon stored, it may induce phase shifts in several single photons, thus enabling the generation of multipartite entangled states. We explore the relevant parameter space in the atom-cavity system that allows the implementation of quantum controlled-phase gates using the recent technologies. In particular, we have found a lower bound for the cooperativity of the atom-cavity system which enables the implementation of phase shift on single photons. The induced shift on the phase of a photonic qubit and the controlled-phase gate between single photons, combined with optical devices, enable one to perform universal quantum computation.

Two-Qubit Conditional Phase Gate in Laser-Excited Semiconductor Quantum Dots Using the Quantum Zeno Effect

Kaijie Xu, Y. P. Huang, M. G. Moore +1 more

We propose a scheme for a two-qubit conditional quantum Zeno phase gate for semiconductor quantum dots. The proposed system consists of two charged dots and one ancillary neutral dot driven by a laser pulse tuned to the exciton resonance. The primary decoherence mechanism is phonon-assisted exciton relaxation, which can be viewed as continuous monitoring by the environment. Because of the Zeno effect, a strong possibility of emission is sufficient to strongly modify the coherent dynamics, with negligible probability of actual emission. We solve analytically the master equation and simulate the dynamics of the system using a realistic set of parameters. In contrast to standard schemes, larger phonon relaxation rates increase the fidelity of the operations.
