Few-MHz bandwidth tunable optical filter based on a fiber-ring resonator

Anonymous, Anton Bölian, Xinxin Hu +3 more

We present a fiber-ring resonator that realizes an ultranarrowband, high-extinction, low-loss, tunable optical filter. It consists of a pair of commercial variable ratio directional couplers that allow precise adjustment of the filter bandwidth and its on-resonance transmission. This design also grants access to multiple modes of operation, such as a simultaneous band-stop and band-pass filter. Our characterization reveals a bandwidth of less than 2 MHz, together with an extinction exceeding 20 dB. The tunability of the filter properties establishes our device as a versatile platform for selective frequency filtering with sub-natural atomic linewidth resolution.

A scalable edge-pass Purcell filter for high-fidelity readout of superconducting qubits

Xudong Liao, Yuan Li, Sainan Huai +11 more

High-fidelity readout with strong Purcell protection of qubit coherence is essential for scalable superconducting quantum processors, yet the finite passband and sizable footprint of conventional band-pass Purcell filters make them hard to scale. Here we introduce a scalable edge-pass Purcell filter that separates the readout band from the protected qubit band by a single transmission edge, freeing the readout resonators from bandwidth constraint. Depending on whether the transmitting band lies above or below the cutoff, the compact network is realized as a high-pass filter (HPF) or a low-pass filter (LPF). The HPF reaches an average readout fidelity of 99.46(4)% (up to 99.56%) with a 150-ns pulse, and the LPF reaches 99.49(3)% (up to 99.57%) with a 130-ns pulse. The average single-qubit gate fidelities are 99.94% (HPF) and 99.93% (LPF). Relative to the filter-free Purcell limit, the filters substantially extend the qubit lifetime, and the Purcell protection deepens at higher filter order. In addition, an intrinsic dissipation mode of the filter offers a qubit-reset channel. This leads to a compact architecture that unifies fast, high-fidelity readout, Purcell protection, and effective reset within a single filter for large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Few-MHz bandwidth tunable optical filter based on a fiber-ring resonator

Gabriele Maron, Anton Bölian, Xinxin Hu +3 more

We present a fiber-ring resonator that realizes an ultra-narrowband, high-extinction, low-loss, tunable optical filter. It consists of a pair of commercial variable ratio directional couplers that allow precise adjustment of the filter bandwidth and its on-resonance transmission. This design also grants access to multiple modes of operation, such as a simultaneous band-stop and band-pass filter. Our characterization reveals a bandwidth of less than 2 MHz, together with an extinction exceeding 20 dB. The tunability of the filter properties establishes our device as a versatile platform for selective frequency filtering with sub-natural atomic linewidth resolution.

All-optical implementation of tunable low-pass, high-pass, and bandpass optical filters using ring resonators

Ali Rostami, Golriz Rostami

Basic units for realization of all-pole and all-zero transfer functions in all-optical systems using ring resonators and electromagnetic-induced transparency (EIT) are introduced. Using the basic blocks for generation of pole and zero proposed Any type and any degree of optical filters and optical processing systems can be implemented. In this paper, z transform is used for design and synthesize of low-pass, bandpass, and high-pass Butterworth optical filters as an example. The stability of optical systems designed by the proposed structures is investigated. In addition, EIT is used for the control of pole and zero position.
