Abstract

We present an adiabatic 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 thermal fluctuations in a superconducting phase qubits circuit and was found to be quite robust against random errors. In addition, it was elucidated that the Berry phase in the designed adiabatic evolution may be detected directly via the quantum state tomography developed for superconducting qubits. We also analyze the effects of control parameter fluctuations on the experimental detection of the Berry phase.

We have developed an 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 thermal fluctuation in superconducting phase qubits circuit and was found to be rather robust against the random errors. In addition, it was elucidated that the Berry phase in the designed adiabatic evolution may be detected directly via the quantum state tomography developed for superconducting qubits.

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.

Effect of noise on geometric logic gates for quantum computation

Alexandre Blais, A.–M. S. Tremblay

We introduce the nonadiabatic, or Aharonov-Anandan, geometric phase as a tool for quantum computation and show how this phase on one qubit can be monitored by a second qubit without any dynamical contribution. We also discuss how this geometric phase could be implemented with superconducting charge qubits. While the nonadiabatic geometric phase may circumvent many of the drawbacks related to the adiabatic (Berry) version of geometric gates, we show that the effect of fluctuations of the control parameters on nonadiabatic phase gates is more severe than for the standard dynamic gates. Similarly, fluctuations also affect to a greater extent quantum gates that use the Berry phase instead of the dynamic phase.

Experimental Implementation of Universal Nonadiabatic Geometric Quantum Gates in a Superconducting Circuit

Yuan Xu, Ziyue Hua, Tao Chen +9 more

Using geometric phases to realize noise-resilient quantum computing is an important method to enhance the control fidelity. In this work, we experimentally realize a universal nonadiabatic geometric quantum gate set in a superconducting qubit chain. We characterize the realized single- and two-qubit geometric gates with both quantum process tomography and randomized benchmarking methods. The measured average fidelities for the single-qubit rotation gates and two-qubit controlled-Z gate are 0.9977(1) and 0.977(9), respectively. Besides, we also experimentally demonstrate the noise-resilient feature of the realized single-qubit geometric gates by comparing their performance with the conventional dynamical gates with different types of errors in the control field. Thus, our experiment proves a way to achieve high-fidelity geometric quantum gates for robust quantum computation.

Realization of Super-Robust Geometric Control in a Superconducting Circuit

Sai Li, Bao-Jie Liu, Zhongchu Ni +9 more

Geometric phases accompanying adiabatic quantum evolutions can be used to construct robust quantum control for quantum information processing due to their noise-resilient feature. A significant development along this line is to construct geometric gates using nonadiabatic quantum evolutions to reduce errors due to decoherence. However, it has been shown that nonadiabatic geometric gates are not necessarily more robust than dynamical ones, in contrast to an intuitive expectation. Here we experimentally investigate this issue for the case of nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation~(NHQC) and show that conventional NHQC schemes cannot guarantee the expected robustness due to a cross coupling to the states outside the computational space. We implement a new set of constraints for gate construction in order to suppress such cross coupling to achieve an enhanced robustness. Using a superconducting quantum circuit, we demonstrate high-fidelity holonomic gates whose infidelity against quasi-static transverse errors can be suppressed up to the fourth order, instead of the second order in conventional NHQC and dynamical gates. In addition, we explicitly measure the accumulated dynamical phase due to the above mentioned cross coupling and verify that it is indeed much reduced in our NHQC scheme. We further demonstrate a protocol for constructing two-qubit NHQC gates also with an enhanced robustness.

Nonadiabatic geometric quantum gates that are robust against systematic errors

Yan Liang, Yi-Xuan Wu, Zheng‐Yuan Xue

A nonadiabatic geometric quantum gate is realized by integrating nonadiabatic geometric phases with global geometric features into the unitary quantum control, thereby removing the limitation of a long evolution time in the adiabatic case. However, systematic errors are inevitable in practical quantum control; these lead to the deviation of the evolution from target conditions to inducing geometric phases, smearing the robustness of the induced geometric quantum gates. Here, we present a general theoretical framework with enhanced robustness for geometric quantum gates by preserving fundamental geometric conditions. We first analytically evaluate the influence of systematic errors on geometric gates and then propose an optimized approach to mitigate this influence. Numerical simulations indicate that, as the geometric conditions are still maintained in the presence of systematic errors in our scheme, the constructed geometric quantum gates exhibit strong robustness, far superior to that of conventional schemes. Furthermore, we propose implementing the scheme in superconducting quantum circuits, where geometric quantum gates can achieve high fidelity with current experimental parameters. Therefore, the enhanced gate performance highlights the promise of our scheme for large-scale quantum computations.
