Abstract

New physical implementations of quantum computing elementary operations by pulse manipulations with electron spins of paramagnetic ions having two electrons and spin S=1 in a zero magnetic field are proposed. New type of microwave pulses with variable phases and different polarizations are able to induce different transitions between ion spin states, and those transitions are described by quantum computing operators. To describe the effects of such pulses, a new way to present exponential operators as polynomials of Pauli matrices is proposed.

Magnetization of a System of High-Spin Ions in Zero Magnetic Field with Microwave Pulses at Finite Temperatures

M. R. Arifullin, Vitaly L. Berdinskiy

Abstract— The resonant microwave pulses have been shown to be able to create magnetization of high-spin (S ≥ 1) metal ions even in the absence of an external magnetic field. This transformation of the ion spin states is similar to the “alignment–orientation” transition in atomic spectroscopy. These manipulations make it possible to translate the results of elementary quantum computing operations performed in zero magnetic fields into physically observable quantities.

Ensemble based quantum memory and adiabatic phase gates in electron spins

Hua Wu

Quantum computing has been a new and challenging area of research since the concept was put forward in 1980s. A quantum computer is a computer that processes information encoded in systems that exhibit quantum properties and is proved in theory to be more powerful than classical computers. Various approaches to the implementation of the quantum computers have been studied over the decades, each of them having their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of the lifetime of the quantum information, processing time, and scalability of the implementation. Proposals for hybrid quantum processors are interesting because they benefit from the advantages of each comprising system, and thus providing a promising approach to a practical quantum computer.In this thesis, I demonstrate experimentally the principle of utilizing electron spin ensembles as a quantum memory for hybrid quantum processors. I demonstrate the storage and on-demand retrieval of multiple bits of quantum information into and from a single electron spin ensemble by applying magnetic field gradient pulses. I then study the coupling between an electron spin ensemble and a three-dimensional microwave cavity, in the aim of discussing the condition for the coherent information transfer between the excitations in solid-state matter and photons. As an alternative to the high power pulses in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), I study the possibility of controlling the electron spin states via adiabatic processes. I demonstrate the implementation of adiabatic geometric phase gates in electron spins and compare their performances to other phase gates achieved with microwave pulses in both simulation and experiment, verifying the robustness of the adiabatic gates against certain type of noises. Finally I present the simulation method developed for simulating the pulsed EPR experiments in this thesis, using a model more general than some currently-existing simulation packages.

Quantum Gates with Spin States in Continuous Microwave Field

Aigul F. Zinovieva, A. V. Nenashev, A. A. Koshkarev +3 more

The physical basis of the method of implementing quantum logical operations in a continuous microwave field in a system of two electrons with different g-factors and a constant exchange interaction is developed. A small variable additive Δ B ( t ) to the magnetic field is proposed as a control action. It is obtained that a simple functional dependence Δ B ( t ), based on harmonic functions, allows us to perform elementary quantum logical operations and their sequences. This method is adapted to the experimental conditions.

Quantum Computation and Quantum Simulation with Atomic and Solid State Systems.

Zhexuan Gong

The ability to manipulate individual quantum systems in a precise way has led to a new era of quantum technologies, including quantum computation and quantum simulation. In this thesis we present several new implementations of these quantum technologies. We first aim at addressing current experimental challenges for quantum dot based quantum computing. We propose a systematic way to study the dynamics of nuclear spin, which is responsible for the short electron spin coherence time. Our calculation is based on diffusion model and is consistent with experiments. We also invent a novel protocol to realize high-fidelity ultrafast universal quantum gate in recently-developed quantum dot molecule system. Experimental realization of our protocol requires only a simple time engineering of optical pulses. We then propose a new quantum state transfer scheme for Nitrogen-Vacancy center based quantum computer, which is applicable at room temperature. Our method accomplishes high fidelity robust quantum state transfer through uncontrolled thermal nitrogen spin chain between two remote NV registers. Our next study helps building a hybrid quantum computer by entangling disparate systems using photonic links. The photons emitted from two types of system need to be matched in both frequency and pulse shape. We propose a simple method to match the emitted pulse shape from two qubit systems with different transition linewidths. We then focus on quantum simulation with trapped ions. We show the possibility of observing a novel type of temperature driven structural phase transition in trapped ion chain, which originates from anharmonic interaction between different vibrational modes. Afterward, an experimental protocol to simulate a conceptually new state of matter, called time crystal, is proposed based on ions trapped in a ring trap. Finally, we propose two new applications based on the recently developed trapped ion quantum simulator of spin models: (1) simulation of Haldane-Shastry model, which opens the way of experimental study to a remarkable theoretical model involving spin liquid ground state and fractional excitations (2) observation of prethermalization and dynamical phase transition, which are poorly understood non-equilibrium phenomena in closed quantum many-body system.
