Abstract

A solid-state quantum computer scheme Using electron-nucleon double spins is proposed. The addressing of gubit, single gubit operation and the control-not gate between any two gubits are realized by Using an STM tip. The technique involved in this scheme is either current available or very close to the present technical expectation. Thus the scheme may be realized Using existing technologies.

An Electron-Nucleon Double Spin Solid-State Quantum Computer

Long, Gui Lu, Yingjun Ma, Haoming Chen

An electron-nucleon double spin(ENDOS) solid-state quantum computer scheme is proposed. In this scheme, the qubits are the nuclear spins of phosphorus ion implanted on the (111) surface of $^{28}$Si substrate. An $^{13}$C atom on a scanning tunnelling probe tip is used both to complete single qubit and two-qubit control-not operation, and single qubit measurement. The scheme does not require interactions between qubits, and can accomplish two qubits without the use of SWAP gate. This scheme is scalable, and can be implemented with present-day or near-future technologies.

Solid-State Quantum Computer Based on Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

G. P. Berman, Geoffrey W. Brown, M. E. Hawley +1 more

We propose a solid-state nuclear-spin quantum computer based on application of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and well-developed silicon technology. It requires the measurement of tunneling-current modulation caused by the Larmor precession of a single electron spin. Our envisioned STM quantum computer would operate at the high magnetic field (approximately 10 T) and at low temperature approximately 1 K.

One-spin quantum logic gates from the exchange interaction and a global magnetic field

Lian-Ao Wu, Daniel A. Lidar, Mark G. Friesen

The construction of a solid-state quantum computer remains a coveted, yet elusive goal. Among the most promising scalable candidates are the spin-based approaches, where qubits are represented by electron spins in quantum dots, or by donor-atom nuclear or electron spins, or by combinations thereof. It has been widely assumed that one-qubit gates in these systems, which are based on single-spin addressing, suffer from severe technical difficulties, including slow speed of operation, heating, and device and materials complexity, such as g-factor engineering. For this reason a variety of approaches have been suggested to circumvent one-qubit gates, including encoding the state of a qubit into two or more spins. These approaches inevitably introduce substantial overhead. Here we show that one-qubit gates can in fact be generated using only modest and presently feasible technological requirements. Our solution uses only global magnetic fields and controllable Heisenberg exchange interactions, thus circumventing the need for single-spin addressing. We explicitly show how to build up one-qubit gates from these components using simple pulse sequences. This should substantially simplify the implemention of spin-based solid state quantum computers.

Nanoscale solid-state quantum computing

Arzhang Ardavan, Martin Zaltz Austwick, Simon C. Benjamin +19 more

Most experts agree that it is too early to say how quantum computers will eventually be built, and several nanoscale solid-state schemes are being implemented in a range of materials. Nanofabricated quantum dots can be made in designer configurations, with established technology for controlling interactions and for reading out results. Epitaxial quantum dots can be grown in vertical arrays in semiconductors, and ultrafast optical techniques are available for controlling and measuring their excitations. Single-walled carbon nanotubes can be used for molecular self-assembly of endohedral fullerenes, which can embody quantum information in the electron spin. The challenges of individual addressing in such tiny structures could rapidly become intractable with increasing numbers of qubits, but these schemes are amenable to global addressing methods for computation.

Achieving quantum computation with quantum dot spin qubits

Sebastian Mehl, David Peter Divincenzo

A two-level quantum system is the building block of a quantum computer. This pair of quantum states defines the computational unit of a quantum computer, and it is called a quantum bit or qubit in analogy to the bit that is the binary unit of a classical computer. The spin of a single electron naturally defines such a two-level quantum system. A quantum dot can be tuned to the single-electron regime, and an array of singly occupied quantum dots provides a multi-qubit register. This thesis describes the multielectron encoding of a spin qubit using a pair or a trio of quantum dots, and it analyzes the coherence properties and manipulation protocols of this system. The singlet-triplet qubit, coded using the singlet state and the spinless triplet state of a pair of singly occupied quantum dots, can be controlled all electrically when applying voltages to gates close to the quantum dot structure. Rapid, subnanosecond modifications of the double quantum dot's charge configuration have been realized successfully. A small magnetic field gradient across the double quantum dot enables universal qubit control. Two modifications of the normal singlet-triplet encoding are introduced. (1) The six-electron configuration of a double quantum dot encodes a singlet-triplet qubit in the same way as for the two-electron double quantum dot. Two electrons at each quantum dot are irrelevant for the qubit manipulations because they are paired in a singlet state; the remaining two electrons encode the qubit. The qubit's wave function is immune to charge noise at moderate out-of-plane magnetic fields. (2) A singlet-triplet qubit encoded using two quantum dots of different sizes has an orbital state degeneracy of the singlet state and the spinless triplet state at finite out-of-plane magnetic fields. Spin-orbit interactions lift this state degeneracy, while the magnitude of the state coupling is determined by the size difference of the QDs. This setup enables the manipulations of singlet-triplet qubits without the need for magnetic field gradients. Finally, two-qubit gates between singlet-triplet qubits are proposed that use mediated exchange interactions via one quantum state. These operations are well controlled and highly noise insensitive. Orbital interactions alone can control spin qubits coded in a three electron Hilbert space. For example, the exchange-only qubit is encoded using three singly occupied quantum dots. The exchange interactions of two quantum dot pairs need to be modified to manipulate this qubit. The noise sensitivity of the exchange-only qubit is discussed. Alternatively, a three-electron qubit at a double quantum dot can be operated when single electrons are transferred between the quantum dots. Fast, subnanosecond manipulations of the double quantum dot's charge configuration are required to realize single-qubit gates. A novel two-qubit pulse gate for the three-electron double quantum dot qubit is proposed.
