Abstract

In this paper we propose a model of a programmable quantum processing device realizable with existing nano-photonic technologies. It can be viewed as a basis for new high performance hardware architectures. Protocols for physical implementation of device on the controlled photon transfer and atomic transitions are presented. These protocols are designed for executing basic single-qubit and multi-qubit gates forming a universal set. We analyze the possible operation of this quantum computer scheme. Then we formalize the physical architecture by a mathematical model of a Quantum Processing Unit (QPU), which we use as a basis for the Quantum Programming Framework. This framework makes it possible to perform universal quantum computations in a multitasking environment.

We propose a model of a programmable quantum processing device realizable with existing nanophotonic technologies and which can be viewed as a basis for new high performance hardware architectures. We present protocols and their physical implementation on the controlled photon transfer for executing basic single-qubit and multi-qubit gates. The possible operation of this quantum computer scheme is analyzed. The physical architecture is then formalized by a mathematical model of the Quantum Processing Unit (QPU), which is used as a basis for the Quantum Programming Framework that makes it possible to perform universal quantum computations in a multitasking environment.

A programmable qudit-based quantum processor

Jieshan Huang, Yulin Chi, Zhanchuan Zhang +3 more

Controlling and programming quantum devices to process quantum information by the unit of qudit shows great potential to enhance the capabilities of qubit-based quantum technologies. Here, we report a programmable qudit-based quantum processor in silicon-photonic integrated circuits and demonstrate its enhancement of quantum computational parallelism. The processor monolithically integrates all the key functionalities and capabilities of initialisation, manipulation, and measurement of the two-ququart states and multi-value quantum-controlled logic gates with high-level fidelities. We implemented the basic quantum Fourier transform algorithms to benchmark the enhancement of quantum parallelism using qudits, allowing the implementations of more than one million high-fidelity preparations, operations and projections of qudit states in the processor. Our work shows an integrated quantum technology for qudit-based quantum computing with enhanced capacity, accuracy, and efficiency.

Atomic quantum transistor based on swapping operation

Sergey A. Moiseev, Sergey N. Andrianov, E. S. Moiseev

We propose an atomic quantum transistor based on exchange by virtual photons between two atomic systems through the control gate-atom. The quantum transistor is realized in two QED cavities coupled in nano-optical scheme. We have found novel effect in quantum dynamics of coupled three-node atomic system which provides control-SWAP(θ) processes in quantum transistor operation. New possibilities of quantum entanglement in an example of bright and dark qubit states have been demonstrated for quantum transport in the atomic chain. Potentialities of the proposed nano-optical design for quantum computing and fundamental issues of multi-atomic physics are also discussed.

A programmable qudit-based quantum processor

Yulin Chi, Jieshan Huang, Zhanchuan Zhang +19 more

Controlling and programming quantum devices to process quantum information by the unit of quantum dit, i.e., qudit, provides the possibilities for noise-resilient quantum communications, delicate quantum molecular simulations, and efficient quantum computations, showing great potential to enhance the capabilities of qubit-based quantum technologies. Here, we report a programmable qudit-based quantum processor in silicon-photonic integrated circuits and demonstrate its enhancement of quantum computational parallelism. The processor monolithically integrates all the key functionalities and capabilities of initialisation, manipulation, and measurement of the two quantum quart (ququart) states and multi-value quantum-controlled logic gates with high-level fidelities. By reprogramming the configuration of the processor, we implemented the most basic quantum Fourier transform algorithms, all in quaternary, to benchmark the enhancement of quantum parallelism using qudits, which include generalised Deutsch-Jozsa and Bernstein-Vazirani algorithms, quaternary phase estimation and fast factorization algorithms. The monolithic integration and high programmability have allowed the implementations of more than one million high-fidelity preparations, operations and projections of qudit states in the processor. Our work shows an integrated photonic quantum technology for qudit-based quantum computing with enhanced capacity, accuracy, and efficiency, which could lead to the acceleration of building a large-scale quantum computer.

Programmable quantum processor implemented with superconducting circuit

Nian-Quan Jiang, Xi Liang, Mingfeng Wang

Abstract A quantum processor might execute certain computational tasks exponentially faster than a classical processor. Here, using superconducting quantum circuits we design a powerful universal quantum processor with the structure of symmetric all-to-all capacitive connection. We present the Hamiltonian and use it to demonstrate a full set of qubit operations needed in the programmable universal quantum computations. With the device the unwanted crosstalk and ZZ -type couplings between qubits can be effectively suppressed by tuning gate voltages, and the design allows efficient and high-quality couplings of qubits. Within available technology, the scheme may enable a practical programmable universal quantum computer.

Quantum computers will not be that different: A blueprint for quantum computer architecture at scale

Torsten Hoefler, Matthias Troyer

Quantum computers are technologically novel and unusual, but at system scale they should be engineered using many of the same principles that govern classical heterogeneous accelerators. This paper argues that utility-scale quantum architecture is primarily a cost-performance problem across a coupled quantum-classical system, leading to a blueprint for scalable quantum processing unit (QPU) design. Our architecture blueprint is organized around clean logical abstractions, hiding details and complexity of physical qubit modalities below the instruction set architecture (ISA) boundary, and specializes recurring functions aggressively to minimize the cost for utility scale quantum computations. Its low-level implementation through specialized local hardware for control, readout, and quantum error correction (QEC) closely resembles the architecture of high-performance network stacks. One of our main insights is that the design principles and the resulting architecture closely follow established practice from classical computing and networking.
