Abstract

In this paper we propose two theoretical schemes for implementation of quantum phase gates by engineering the phase-sensitive dark state of two atoms subjected to Rydberg-Rydberg interaction. Combining the conventional adiabatic techniques and currently developed approaches of phase control, a feasible proposal for implementation of a geometric phase gate is presented, where the conditional phase shift (Berry phase) is achieved by adiabatically and cyclically changing the parameters of the driving fields. Here we find that the geometric phase acquired is related to the way how the relative phase is modulated. In the second scheme, the system Hamiltonian is adiabatically changed in a noncyclic manner, so that the acquired conditional phase is not a Berry phase. A detailed analysis of the experimental feasibility and the effect of decoherence is also given. The proposed schemes provide new perspectives for adiabatic manipulation of interacting Rydberg systems with tailored phase modulation.

Single-modulated-pulse two-qubit gates for Rydberg atoms with noncyclic geometric control

Ziyuan Chen, Jia-Hao Liang, Zhao-Xin Fu +7 more

Arrays of neutral atoms have emerged as promising platforms for quantum computing. Realization of high-fidelity two-qubit gates with robustness is currently a significant important task for large-scale operations. In this paper, we present a convenient approach for implementing a two-qubit controlled-phase gate using Rydberg blockade. We achieve the noncyclic geometric control with a single modulated pulse. As compared with the control scheme by cyclic evolution that determined by dynamical parameters, the robustness of the proposal against systematic errors will be remarkably improved due to the geometric characteristic. Importantly, the noncyclic geometric control reduces the gate time for small rotation angles and will be more insensitive to the decoherence effect. We accelerate the adiabatic control with the aid of shortcuts to adiabaticity to further shorten the operation time. We apply our protocol to the algorithm of quantum Fourier transformation to show the actual acceleration. Therefore, the proposed scheme will provide an analytical waveforms for arbitrary two-qubit gates and may have important use in the experiments of atomic arrays.

The realization of high-fidelity two-qubit gates with robustness is currently a significantly important task for large-scale operations. In this paper, we present a convenient approach for implementing a two-qubit controlled-phase gate with Rydberg blockade. We achieve noncyclic and geometric control within a single modulated pulse. Compared with the control scheme by cyclic evolution determined by dynamical parameters, the robustness of our proposal against systematic errors will be remarkably improved due to its geometric characteristics. Importantly, the noncyclic geometric control reduces the gate time for small rotation angles and is more insensitive to decoherence effects.

We apply our protocol to the quantum Fourier transformation algorithm to demonstrate the actual acceleration. Therefore, the proposed scheme provides analytical wave forms for arbitrary two-qubit gates and may play an important role in experiments involving atomic arrays.

Implementation of quantum phase gate between two atoms via Rydberg antiblockade and adiabatic passage

Xi Tan, Jin‐Lei Wu, Can Deng +3 more

Combining adiabatic passage and Rydberg antiblockade, we propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit phase gate between two Rydberg atoms. Detuning parameters between frequencies of atomic transitions and those of the corresponding driving lasers are carefully chosen to offset the blockade effect of two Rydberg atoms, so that an effective Hamiltonian, representing a single-photon detuning Λ-type three-level system and concluding the quantum state of two Rydberg atoms excited simultaneously, is obtained. The adiabatic-passage technique, based on the effective Hamiltonian, is adopted to implement a two-atom phase gate by using two time-dependent Rabi frequencies. Numerical simulations indicate that a high-fidelity two-qubit π -phase gate is constructed and its operation time does not have to be controlled accurately. Besides, owing to the long coherence time of the Rydberg state, the phase gate is robust against atomic spontaneous emission.

Nongeometric Conditional Phase Shift via Adiabatic Evolution of Dark Eigenstates: A New Approach to Quantum Computation

Shi-Biao Zheng

We propose a new approach to quantum phase gates via the adiabatic evolution. The conditional phase shift is neither of dynamical nor geometric origin. It arises from the adiabatic evolution of the dark state itself. Taking advantage of the adiabatic passage, this kind of quantum logic gates is robust against moderate fluctuations of experimental parameters. In comparison with the geometric phase gates, it is unnecessary to drive the system to undergo a desired cyclic evolution to obtain a desired solid angle. Thus, the procedure is simplified, and the fidelity may be further improved since the errors in obtaining the required solid angle are avoided. We illustrate such a kind of quantum logic gates in the ion trap system. The idea can also be realized in other systems, opening a new perspective for quantum information processing.

One-step implementation of the Rydberg-Rydberg-interaction gate

Shi‐Lei Su, Erjun Liang, Shou Zhang +4 more

We propose several schemes for implementing a two-qubit quantum phase gate between two Rydberg atoms. The schemes could be realized in one step without adiabatic passage which depends on the specifical shapes and tailored pulse sequences of the laser fields. When the Rydberg-Rydberg-interaction (RRI) strength and the parameters of the driving fields satisfy some certain conditions, the effective Rabi oscillation between the two-excitation Rydberg state and the ground state would be generated, which is out of the Rydberg blockade regime and essential for our scheme. In addition, the individual addressing of the atoms is not required. And the schemes can work under strong or weak RRI strength. The imperfections induced by the variation of RRI strength and spontaneous emission are discussed through solving the master equation numerically.
