One-step implementation of a deterministic SWAP gate via a shortcut to adiabatic passage

Abstract

Abstract The quantum logic gate is a basic operation in quantum computing. SWAP gates are quite useful as a type of two-qubit logic gate. In this paper, we propose a fast scheme to get a deterministic SWAP gate between two atoms in just one step. In this scheme the experimental parameters, such as evolution time, laser parameters and so on, do not need to be controlled precisely. This greatly simplifies the actual operation. Meanwhile, the strict numerical simulations show that decoherence arising from spontaneous emission and cavity decay may be allowed to some extent. What is more, the idea can be used to generate a SWAP gate between two spatially separate atoms. It is worth noting that our scheme simplifies the complex steps found in some pre-existing schemes.

Deterministic Implementation of SWAP Gates and CSWAP Gates Using Rydberg Atoms Via Transitionless Quantum Driving

Jie Wang, Yan‐Qiang Ji, Ji‐Ping Wang +3 more

Abstract Quantum logic gates are the fundamental operational units in quantum computing. The SWAP gate, as an important two‐qubit logic gate, has long been the focus of scholars for seeking to achieve high‐fidelity implementations. This study proposes a scheme for realizing a SWAP gate using Rydberg atoms. The scheme ingeniously utilizes the interactions between Rydberg atoms to construct the model and combines the “transitionless quantum driving” algorithm to design the control laser. Numerical simulations show that this scheme not only achieves a high‐fidelity SWAP gate but also robust against experimental imperfections such as atomic spontaneous emission. At last, this scheme is extended to realize CSWAP gate.

Robust SWAP gate on two distant atoms through virtual excitations and transitionless quantum driving

Xianghong Ge, Xuehua Zhang, Xingxing Ding +2 more

Abstract We propose a scheme for implementing robust SWAP gate on two distant atoms that are confined in two spatially separated single-mode optical cavities connected by an optical fiber. The SWAP gate cannot be attained by using adiabatic passage for such a physical model, but we achieve it by following transitionless quantum driving, a method of shortcuts to adiabatic passage. In addition, during the execution of the SWAP gate, none of two atoms, two cavities and the fiber is excited, and thus the virtual excitations of the fiber-cavity-atom system make the scheme very robust against the atomic spontaneous radiation and the decay of the cavities and the fiber. Numerical simulations show that the SWAP gate can be attained with high fidelity, and the present scheme is insensitive to the control errors of various parameters. The scheme may have potential applications in distributed quantum computing and quantum information process in a quantum network.

A scheme for quantum logic gate based on coherent-state qubits in cavity QED system

Shi-Qing Tang, Shunlong Luo, Jiayi Xu

A two-qubit quantum swap gate scheme based on coherent state qubit is proposed in cavity quantum electrodynamics system. Our scheme adopt the interaction between the Λ-type atomic ensemble and the two-mode optical cavity, and the swap gate can be realized directly only one step, so as to save a lot of quantum resources and reduce the number of single qubit rotation operations in the actual quantum information processing. It is found that under the condition of large detuning limit, the excited states of atoms are adiabatically eliminated, and the decoherence caused by the spontaneous emission of atoms is effectively suppressed. All atoms in the optical cavity are universally addressed, which reduces the experimental operation difficulty of the scheme. The fidelity of the quantum logic gate is maintained at a very high level when the photon loss of the cavity field is considered. Compared with the single-atom scheme, it is found that the atom-cavity interaction time required by the atomic ensemble scheme is inversely proportional to the number of atoms, so that the speed of the quantum logic gate can be increased by N times. Therefore, in principle, as long as enough atoms interacting with the optical field, an effective coupling of any atom-cavity field can be generated, which is conducive to selecting the appropriate quantum gate operation time in practical operation and effectively avoiding decoherence.

Fast CNOT gate between two spatially separated atoms via shortcuts to adiabatic passage

Yan Liang, Chong Song, Xin Ji +1 more

Quantum logic gate is indispensable to quantum computation. One of the important qubit operations is the quantum controlled-not (CNOT) gate that performs a NOT operation on a target qubit depending on the state of the control qubit. In this paper we present a scheme to realize the quantum CNOT gate between two spatially separated atoms via shortcuts to adiabatic passage. The influence of various decoherence processes on the fidelity is discussed. The strict numerical simulation results show that the fidelity for the CNOT gate is relatively high.

Deterministic SWAP gate using shortcuts to adiabatic passage

Yan Liang, Xin Ji, Hong‐Fu Wang +1 more

We theoretically propose an alternative method to realize a deterministic SWAP gate using shortcuts to adiabatic passage based on the approach of Lewis-Riesenfeld invariants in cavity quantum electronic dynamics (QED). By combining Lewis-Riesenfeld invariants with quantum Zeno dynamics, the SWAP gate can be achieved deterministically. The numerical results show that our scheme presents a fast and robust approach to achieve SWAP gates.

Feasible schemes for quantum swap gates of optical qubits via cavity QED

Deng-Yu Zhang, Shi-Qing Tang, Xin-Wen Wang +2 more

Feasible schemes for implementing quantum swap gates of both coherent-state qubits and photonic qubits are proposed using a Λ-type atomic ensemble trapped in a bimodal optical cavity. In both protocols, the decoherence from atomic spontaneous emission is negligible due to the fact that the excited states of the atoms are adiabatically eliminated under large detuning condition and the swap gates can be created in a single step. In our schemes, the required atoms—cavity interaction time decreases with the increase of the number of atoms, which is very important in view of decoherence. The experimental feasibilities of the schemes are also discussed.
