Abstract

We propose a scheme for realizing a controlled geometric phase gate for two neutral atoms. We apply the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage to transfer atoms from their ground states into Rydberg excited states, and use the Rydberg interaction induced energy shifts to generate geometric phase and construct quantum gates.

Rydberg-interaction gates via adiabatic passage and phase control of driving fields

Huai‐Zhi Wu, Xi-Rong Huang, Chang‐Sheng Hu +2 more

In this paper we propose two theoretical schemes for implementation of quantum phase gates by engineering the phase-sensitive dark state of two atoms subjected to Rydberg-Rydberg interaction. Combining the conventional adiabatic techniques and currently developed approaches of phase control, a feasible proposal for implementation of a geometric phase gate is presented, where the conditional phase shift (Berry phase) is achieved by adiabatically and cyclically changing the parameters of the driving fields. Here we find that the geometric phase acquired is related to the way how the relative phase is modulated. In the second scheme, the system Hamiltonian is adiabatically changed in a noncyclic manner, so that the acquired conditional phase is not a Berry phase. A detailed analysis of the experimental feasibility and the effect of decoherence is also given. The proposed schemes provide new perspectives for adiabatic manipulation of interacting Rydberg systems with tailored phase modulation.

Neutral-atom quantum computation using multi-qubit geometric gates via adiabatic passage

Sinchan Snigdha Rej, Bimalendu Deb

Adiabatic geometric phase gates offer enhanced robustness against fluctuations compared to con- ventional Rydberg blockade-based phase gates that rely on dynamical phase accumulation. We theoretically demonstrate two- and multi-qubit phase gates in a neutral atom architecture, relying on a double stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (double-STIRAP) pulse sequence that imprints a controllable geometric phase on the qubit systems. The system is designed in such a way that every atom is individually addressable, and moreover, no extra laser is required to be applied on the target atom while scaling up the system from two- to multi-qubit quantum gates. The gate fidelity has been numerically analyzed by changing the gate operation time, and we find that 98% to 99% fidelity can be achieved for gate time $\simeq$ 0.6 $μ$s. We perform a systematic error analysis, which re- veals that our proposed gates can exhibit strong resilience against fluctuations in Rabi frequencies, finite blockade strength, and atomic position variations. These results establish our approach as a physically feasible and scalable pathway toward fault-tolerant quantum computation with neutral atoms. We simulate Grover's search algorithm for two-, three-, and four-qubit systems with high success probability and thereby demonstrate the utility and scalability of our proposed gates for quantum computation.

Geometric Rydberg quantum gate with shortcuts to adiabaticity

Kai-Yu Liao, Xiao-Hong Liu, Zhi Li +1 more

We propose a controlled-PHASE gate for neutral atoms in which one of the qubit state components adiabatically evolves along the multiple-atom eigenstate formed by the chirped laser pulse coupling to Rydberg states and intrinsic dipole-dipole exchange interactions and, consequently, accumulates an interaction-induced geometric phase. The geometric Rydberg gate is not limited by an adiabatic condition, which is sped up by shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA). Analyses show that an STA scheme is more robust than a non-adiabatic case against the variations of control parameters and faster than an adiabatic case, which protects from the decay of Rydberg states. Furthermore, an intermediate value of dipole-dipole interaction strength is enough for our scheme.

QUANTUM PHASE GATES WITH TRAPPED ATOMS COUPLING TO A SUPERCONDUCTING TRANSMISSION LINE RESONATOR

Fuli Li

We propose a hybrid approach with atoms trapped above the surface of a microwave superconducting transmission line resonator to implement a universal two-qubit phase gate based on geometric or dynamical phase shifts. These proposals exploit the Rydberg excitation blockade mechanism that results from the effective long-range dipole–dipole interactions mediated by the stripline cavity mode. The geometric one relies on the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage techniques involving only the ground states of the trapped atoms, while the dynamical phase gate employs the pulse area techniques. These proposals may provide interesting applications in the field of on-chip quantum computations.

Single-modulated-pulse two-qubit gates for Rydberg atoms with noncyclic geometric control

Ziyuan Chen, Jia-Hao Liang, Zhao-Xin Fu +7 more

Arrays of neutral atoms have emerged as promising platforms for quantum computing. Realization of high-fidelity two-qubit gates with robustness is currently a significant important task for large-scale operations. In this paper, we present a convenient approach for implementing a two-qubit controlled-phase gate using Rydberg blockade. We achieve the noncyclic geometric control with a single modulated pulse. As compared with the control scheme by cyclic evolution that determined by dynamical parameters, the robustness of the proposal against systematic errors will be remarkably improved due to the geometric characteristic. Importantly, the noncyclic geometric control reduces the gate time for small rotation angles and will be more insensitive to the decoherence effect. We accelerate the adiabatic control with the aid of shortcuts to adiabaticity to further shorten the operation time. We apply our protocol to the algorithm of quantum Fourier transformation to show the actual acceleration. Therefore, the proposed scheme will provide an analytical waveforms for arbitrary two-qubit gates and may have important use in the experiments of atomic arrays.

Quantum gates in mesoscopic atomic ensembles based on adiabatic passage and Rydberg blockade

Ilya I. Beterov, Mark E. Saffman, Elena A. Yakshina +8 more

We present schemes for geometric phase compensation in an adiabatic passage which can be used for the implementation of quantum logic gates with atomic ensembles consisting of an arbitrary number of strongly interacting atoms. Protocols using double sequences of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) or adiabatic rapid passage (ARP) pulses are analyzed. Switching the sign of the detuning between two STIRAP sequences, or inverting the phase between two ARP pulses, provides state transfer with well-defined amplitude and phase independent of atom number in the Rydberg blockade regime. Using these pulse sequences we present protocols for universal single-qubit and two-qubit operations in atomic ensembles containing an unknown number of atoms.
