Quantum noise cannot be avoided in the quantum computing devices due to unstable nature of qubits and signals. The error caused by quantum noise can be detected and corrected using different error correcting codes. In this work, we have tested the feasibility and accuracy of three qubit bit flip and phase flip error correcting code in quantum computer provided by International Business Machine Quantum Experience (IBM QX) cloud platform. Among five quantum processors, ibmq_ourense is found to have highest average accuracy 77.9% ± 3.09% on all qubits simultaneously. Three qubits bit flip error correction circuit gave correct output 89.9% ± 1.01% of the time on average. Similarly three qubits phase flip error correction circuit give 88.05% ±1.89%. The measurement error mitigation has improved the accuracy of bit flip and phase flip error correction code by 5.01% and 7.01% respectively on average. The error rate shows that the error in quantum computations are random in nature and can be corrected. IBM QX quantum computer are suitable for only small scale quantum computation and demonstrate purpose. Furthermore, the accuracy of error correction codes can be increased with the use of higher accuracy quantum qubits and quantum gates.Quantum noise cannot be avoided in the quantum computing devices due to unstable nature of qubits and signals.

Bosonic Error Correction with Fluxonium

Shantanu R. Jha, Shoumik D. Chowdhury, Gabriele Rolleri +22 more

Bosonic quantum error correction (QEC) offers a hardware-efficient route to fault-tolerant quantum computing. To date, however, superconducting circuit implementations of bosonic codes have utilized centimeter-scale 3D microwave cavities controlled by fixed-frequency transmon qubits, with logical lifetimes limited by transmon bit-flip errors. Here, we realize bosonic QEC in a fully planar architecture by pairing a heavy fluxonium, whose $451 \pm 70~μ\mathrm{s}$ bit-flip lifetime exceeds that of any control qubit in previous demonstrations, with an on-chip Archimedean spiral resonator several orders of magnitude smaller in mode volume than prior 3D cavities. We prepare finite-energy Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) states and stabilize them using measurement-free error correction with rapid fluxonium reset, extending the logical lifetime by a factor of $1.59 \pm 0.05$ . These results provide the first demonstration of resonator control using a weakly coupled fluxonium and, with it, the first realization of standalone bosonic QEC in a fully planar superconducting circuit architecture.Bosonic quantum error correction (QEC) offers a hardware-efficient route to fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Dissipation-induced continuous quantum error correction for superconducting circuits

Joachim Cohen, Mazyar Mirrahimi

Quantum error correction (QEC) is a crucial step towards long coherence times required for efficient quantum information processing. One major challenge in this direction concerns the fast real-time analysis of error syndrome measurements and the associated feedback control. Recent proposals on autonomous QEC (AQEC) have opened new perspectives to overcome this difficulty. Here, we design an AQEC scheme based on quantum reservoir engineering adapted to superconducting qubits. We focus on a three-qubit bit-flip code, where three transmon qubits are dispersively coupled to a few low- $Q$ resonator modes. By applying only continuous-wave drives of fixed but well-chosen frequencies and amplitudes, we engineer an effective interaction Hamiltonian to evacuate the entropy created by eventual bit-flip errors. We provide a full analytical and numerical study of the protocol while introducing the main limitations on the achievable error correction rates.Quantum error correction (QEC) is a crucial step towards long coherence times required for efficient quantum information processing.
