Abstract
We propose a new adiabatic Abelian geometric quantum computation strategy based on the non-degenerate energy eigenstates in (but not limited to) superconducting phase-qubit systems. The fidelity of the designed quantum gate was evaluated in the presence of simulated Gaussian-type noises and was found to be rather robust against the random errors. In addition, it is elucidated that the Berry phase in the designed adiabatic evolution may be detected directly via the quantum state tomography developed for supercunducting qubits.
