A scheme for realizing a multi-qubit phase gate with one control qubit simultaneously controlling n target qubits in a cavity QED system is proposed. The operation time of the gate is independent of the number n of qubits. The realizability of the gate with current technology is also discussed.
We propose a way to realize a multiqubit controlled-phase gate with one qubit simultaneously controlling n target qubits using atoms in cavity QED. In this proposal, there is no need to use classical pulses during the entire gate operation. The gate operation time scales as |n| only and thus the gate can be performed faster when compared with sending atoms through the cavity one at a time. In addition, only three operational steps are required to realize this n-target-qubit controlled-phase gate. This proposal is quite general and can be applied to other physical systems, such as various superconducting qubits coupled to a resonator, NV centers coupled to a microsphere cavity, or quantum dots in cavity QED.
We propose a way to realize a multiqubit tunable phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling n target qubits with atoms in cavity QED. In this proposal, classical pulses interact with atoms outside a cavity only, thus the experimental challenge of applying a pulse to an intracavity single atom without affecting other atoms in the same cavity is avoided. Because of employing a first-order large detuning, the gate can be performed fast when compared with the use of a second-order large detuning. Furthermore, the gate operation time is independent of the number of qubits. This proposal is quite general and can be applied to various superconducting qubits coupled to a resonator, nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to a microsphere cavity, or quantum dots in cavity QED.
We present a novel method to realize a multi-target-qubit controlled phase gate with one microwave photonic qubit simultaneously controlling n - 1 target microwave photonic qubits. This gate is implemented with n microwave cavities coupled to a superconducting flux qutrit. Each cavity hosts a microwave photonic qubit, whose two logic states are represented by the vacuum state and the single photon state of a single cavity mode, respectively. During the gate operation, the qutrit remains in the ground state and thus decoherence from the qutrit is greatly suppressed. This proposal requires only a single-step operation and thus the gate implementation is quite simple. The gate operation time is independent of the number of the qubits. In addition, this proposal does not need applying classical pulse or any measurement. Numerical simulations demonstrate that high-fidelity realization of a controlled phase gate with one microwave photonic qubit simultaneously controlling two target microwave photonic qubits is feasible with current circuit QED technology. The proposal is quite general and can be applied to implement the proposed gate in a wide range of physical systems, such as multiple microwave or optical cavities coupled to a natural or artificial Λ-type three-level atom.
We propose how to realize a three-step controlled-phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling n qubits in a cavity or coupled to a resonator. The n two-qubit controlled-phase gates, forming this multiqubit phase gate, can be performed simultaneously. The operation time of this phase gate is independent of the number n of qubits. This phase gate controlling at once n qubits is insensitive to the initial state of the cavity mode and can be used to produce an analogous cnot gate simultaneously acting on n qubits. We present two alternative approaches to implement this gate. One approach is based on tuning the qubit frequency while in the other method the resonator frequency is tuned. Using superconducting qubits coupled to a resonator as an example, we show how to implement the proposed gate with one superconducting qubit simultaneously controlling n qubits selected from N qubits coupled to a resonator (1<n<N). We also give a discussion on realizing the proposed gate with atoms, by using one cavity initially in an arbitrary state.
We propose a method for realizing a quantum phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling [Formula: see text] target qubits based on the qubit–qubit interaction. We show how to implement the proposed gate with one transmon qubit simultaneously controlling [Formula: see text] transmon qubits in a circuit QED driven by a strong microwave field. In our scheme, the operation time of this phase gate is independent of the number [Formula: see text] of qubits. On the other hand, this gate can be realized in a time of nanosecond-scale much smaller than the decoherence time and dephasing time both being the time of microsecond-scale. Numerical simulation of the occupation probabilities of the second excited lever shows that the scheme could be achieved efficiently within current technology.
