Modeling of electrostatic gate operations in the Kane solid state quantum computer

The nuclear spin quantum computer proposed by Kane1 exploits as a qubit array 31P dopants embedded within a silicon matrix. Single-qubit operations are controlled by the application of electrostatic potentials via a set of metallic A gates, situated above the donors, on the silicon surface, that tune the resonance frequency of individual nuclear spins, and a globally applied RF magnetic field that flips spins at resonance. Coupling between qubits is controlled by the application of potentials via a set of J gates, between the donors, that induce an electron-mediated coupling between nuclear spins. We report the results of a study of the electric field and potential profiles arising within the Kane device from typical gate operations. The extent to which a single nuclear spin can be tuned independently of its neighbours, by operation of an associated A-gate, is examined and key design parameters in the Kane architecture are addressed. Implications for current fabrication strategies involving the implantation of 31P atoms are discussed. Solution of the Poisson equation has been carried out by simulation using a TCAD modeling package (Integrated Systems Engineering AG).

Nonadiabatic controlled-NOT gate for the Kane solid-state quantum computer

Cameron J. Wellard, Lloyd C. L. Hollenberg, Hans–Christian Pauli

The method of iterated resolvents is used to obtain an effective Hamiltonian for neighboring qubits in the Kane solid-state quantum computer. In contrast to the adiabatic gate processes inherent in the Kane proposal we show that free evolution of the qubit-qubit system, as generated by this effective Hamiltonian, combined with single-qubit operations, is sufficient to produce a controlled-NOT gate. Thus the usual set of universal gates can be obtained on the Kane quantum computer without the need for adiabatic switching of the controllable parameters as prescribed by Kane [Nature (London) 393, 133 (1998)]. Both the fidelity and the gate time of this nonadiabatic controlled-NOT gate are determined by numerical simulation.

Gates for the Kane quantum computer in the presence of dephasing

Charles D. Hill, Hsi‐Sheng Goan

In this paper we investigate the effect of dephasing on proposed quantum gates for the solid-state Kane quantum computing architecture. Using a simple model of the decoherence, we find that the typical error in a controlled-NOT gate is $8.3\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}5}$. We also compute the fidelities of $Z$, $X$, swap, and controlled $Z$ operations under a variety of dephasing rates. We show that these numerical results are comparable with the error threshold required for fault tolerant quantum computation.
