Abstract

Quantum operation based on CMOS technology has suddenly become popular. Among key challenges for the design and optimization of such structures operating in the quantum regime are the ability to simulate the quantum behavior and to integrate the quantum core with the rest of surrounding (classical) circuity. In this paper, we develop a quantum library for semiconductor position-based qubits and further discuss the appropriate physical formalism and methodology. The resulting toolbox implements a Hadamard quantum gate established through a Python-Verilog interface.

Quantum logic gates are fundamental building blocks of quantum computing, enabling the manipulation of quantum bits (qubits) for computations and communications. This paper presents a novel approach to implementing the SWAP gate, a crucial two-qubit quantum operation, using Python programming. The SWAP gate facilitates the exchange of quantum states between two qubits and plays a significant role in qubit routing and circuit optimization. The implementation leverages Python's quantum computing libraries, such as Qiskit, to simulate and validate the functionality of the SWAP gate. Numerical simulations demonstrate the successful operation of the gate and its integration into larger quantum circuits. The paper provides a comprehensive guide for Python-based SWAP gate development, contributing to the advancement of quantum algorithm design and for different applications in quantum computing.

CMOS Quantum Computing: Toward A Quantum Computer System-on-Chip

Gholamreza Nikandish, Elena Blokhina, Robert Bogdan Staszewski

Quantum computing is experiencing the transition from a scientific to an engineering field with the promise to revolutionize an extensive range of applications demanding high-performance computing. Many implementation approaches have been pursued for quantum computing systems, where currently the main streams can be identified based on superconducting, photonic, trapped-ion, and semiconductor qubits. Semiconductor-based quantum computing, specifically using CMOS technologies, is promising as it provides potential for the integration of qubits with their control and readout circuits on a single chip. This paves the way for the realization of a large-scale quantum computing system for solving practical problems. In this paper, we present an overview and future perspective of CMOS quantum computing, exploring developed semiconductor qubit structures, quantum gates, as well as control and readout circuits, with a focus on the promises and challenges of CMOS implementation.

Quantum-Chiplet: A Novel Python-Based Efficient and Scalable Design Methodology for Quantum Circuit Verification and Implementation

Kao, Yu-Ting, Haoyu Lu, Yeong-Jar Chang +1 more

Analysis and verification of quantum circuits are highly challenging, given the exponential dependence of the number of states on the number of qubits. For analytical derivation, we propose a new quantum polynomial representation (QPR) to facilitate the analysis of massively parallel quantum computation and detect subtle errors. For the verification of quantum circuits, we introduce Quantum-Chiplet, a hierarchical quantum behavior modeling methodology that facilitates rapid integration and simulation. Each chiplet is systematically transformed into quantum gates. For circuits involving n qubits and k quantum gates, the design complexity is reduced from "greater than O(2^n)" to O(k). This approach provides an open-source solution, enabling a highly customized solution for quantum circuit simulation within the native Python environment, thereby reducing reliance on traditional simulation packages. A quantum amplitude estimation example demonstrates that this method significantly improves the design process, with more than 10x speed-up compared to IBM Qiskit at 14 qubits.

Compact Quantum Dot Models for Analog Microwave co-Simulation

Lorenzo Peri, Alberto Gomez-Saiz, Christopher J. B. Ford +1 more

Scalable solid-state quantum computers will require integration with analog and digital electronics. Efficiently simulating the quantum-classical electronic interface is hence of paramount importance. Here, we present Verilog-A compact models with a focus on quantum-dot-based systems, relevant to semiconductor- and Majorana-based quantum computing. Our models are capable of faithfully reproducing coherent quantum behavior within a standard electronic circuit simulator, enabling compromise-free co-simulation of hybrid quantum devices. In particular, we present results from co-simulations performed in Cadence Spectre, showcasing coherent quantum phenomena in circuits with both quantum and classical components using an industry-standard electronic design and automation tool. Our work paves the way for a new paradigm in the design of quantum systems, which leverages the many decades of development of electronic computer-aided design and automation tools in the semiconductor industry to now simulate and optimize quantum processing units, quantum-classical interfaces, and hybrid quantum-analog circuits.

In this paper, we develop a new classical simulation of quantum bit (qubit) by use of analog components in order to be able to simulate the quantum properties such as the superposition of states. As part of this new approach, we have also implemented many logical gates (Pauli-X, Hadamard, and Conditional phase-shift gates). Simulation of Hadamard and Conditional phase-shift gates using Proteus Design Suite is also presented and discussed in this work.
