Abstract

Circuit QED based on superconducting circuit structure is similar to the model of interaction between cavity field and atoms, and is solidified on the substrate, so it is more suitable for integration, expansion and control. The circuit QED system consists of resonators and superconducting qubits, the length of the resonators much larger than width, so it can be regarded as a one-dimensional linear planar structure in theory. We propose a theoretical model to realizing two-qubit photonic phase gate, we use two superconducting resonators to couple a magnetic flux qutrit via two capacitors in circuit QED system, and choose an appropriate interaction time, it turns out that a two-qubit photonic phase gate can be realized by one step.

Circuit QED: single-step realization of a multiqubit controlled phase gate with one microwave photonic qubit simultaneously controlling n − 1 microwave photonic qubits

Biaoliang Ye, Zhen-Fei Zheng, Yu Zhang +1 more

We present a novel method to realize a multi-target-qubit controlled phase gate with one microwave photonic qubit simultaneously controlling n - 1 target microwave photonic qubits. This gate is implemented with n microwave cavities coupled to a superconducting flux qutrit. Each cavity hosts a microwave photonic qubit, whose two logic states are represented by the vacuum state and the single photon state of a single cavity mode, respectively. During the gate operation, the qutrit remains in the ground state and thus decoherence from the qutrit is greatly suppressed. This proposal requires only a single-step operation and thus the gate implementation is quite simple. The gate operation time is independent of the number of the qubits. In addition, this proposal does not need applying classical pulse or any measurement. Numerical simulations demonstrate that high-fidelity realization of a controlled phase gate with one microwave photonic qubit simultaneously controlling two target microwave photonic qubits is feasible with current circuit QED technology. The proposal is quite general and can be applied to implement the proposed gate in a wide range of physical systems, such as multiple microwave or optical cavities coupled to a natural or artificial Λ-type three-level atom.

Efficient scheme for realizing a multiplex-controlled phase gate with photonic qubits in circuit quantum electrodynamics

Qi-Ping Su, Yu Zhang, Liang Bin +1 more

We propose an efficient scheme to implement a multiplex-controlled phase gate with multiple photonic qubits simultaneously controlling one target photonic qubit based on circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). For convenience, we denote this multiqubit gate as MCP gate. The gate is realized by using a two-level coupler to couple multiple cavities. The coupler here is a superconducting qubit. This scheme is simple because the gate implementation requires only one step of operation. In addition, this scheme is quite general because the two logic states of each photonic qubit can be encoded with a vacuum state and an arbitrary non-vacuum state ∣ φ 〉 (e.g., a Fock state, a superposition of Fock states, a cat state, or a coherent state, etc.) which is orthogonal or quasi-orthogonal to the vacuum state. The scheme has some additional advantages: because only two levels of the coupler are used, i.e., no auxiliary levels are utilized, decoherence from higher energy levels of the coupler is avoided; the gate operation time does not depend on the number of qubits; and the gate is implemented deterministically because no measurement is applied. As an example, we numerically analyze the circuit-QED based experimental feasibility of implementing a three-qubit MCP gate with photonic qubits each encoded via a vacuum state and a cat state. The scheme can be applied to accomplish the same task in a wide range of physical system, which consists of multiple microwave or optical cavities coupled to a two-level coupler such as a natural or artificial atom.

Shortcut-based quantum gates on superconducting qubits in circuit QED*

Zheng‐Yin Zhao, Run‐Ying Yan, Zhi‐Bo Feng

Construction of optimal gate operations is significant for quantum computation. Here an efficient scheme is proposed for performing shortcut-based quantum gates on superconducting qubits in circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). Two four-level artificial atoms of Cooper-pair box circuits, having sufficient level anharmonicity, are placed in a common quantized field of circuit QED and are driven by individual classical microwaves. Without the effect of cross resonance, one-qubit NOT gate and phase gate in a decoupled atom can be implemented using the invariant-based shortcuts to adiabaticity. With the assistance of cavity bus, a one-step SWAP gate can be obtained within a composite qubit-photon-qubit system by inversely engineering the classical drivings. We further consider the gate realizations by adjusting the microwave fields. With the accessible decoherence rates, the shortcut-based gates have high fidelities. The present strategy could offer a promising route towards fast and robust quantum computation with superconducting circuits experimentally.

One-step implementation of a multi-target-qubit controlled phase gate with cat-state qubits in circuit QED

You-Ji Fan, Zhen-Fei Zheng, Yu Zhang +2 more

We propose a single-step implementation of a muti-target-qubit controlled phase gate with one catstate qubit ( cqubit ) simultaneously controlling n –1 target cqubits . The two logic states of a cqubit are represented by two orthogonal cat states of a single cavity mode. In this proposal, the gate is implemented with n microwave cavities coupled to a superconducting transmon qutrit. Because the qutrit remains in the ground state during the gate operation, decoherence caused due to the qutrit’s energy relaxation and dephasing is greatly suppressed. The gate implementation is quite simple because only a single-step operation is needed and neither classical pulse nor measurement is required. Numerical simulations demonstrate that high-fidelity realization of a controlled phase gate with one cqubit simultaneously controlling two target cqubits is feasible with present circuit QED technology. This proposal can be extended to a wide range of physical systems to realize the proposed gate, such as multiple microwave or optical cavities coupled to a natural or artificial three-level atom.

Universal controlled-phase gate with cat-state qubits in circuit QED

Yu Zhang, Xiong Zhao, Zhen-Fei Zheng +3 more

Cat-state qubits (qubits encoded with cat states) have recently drawn intensive attention due to their enhanced lifetimes with quantum error correction. We here propose a method to implement a universal controlled-phase gate of two cat-state qubits via two microwave resonators coupled to a superconducting transmon qutrit. During the gate operation, the qutrit remains in the ground state; thus decoherence from the qutrit is greatly suppressed. This proposal requires only two basic operations and neither classical pulse nor measurement is needed; therefore the gate realization is simple. Numerical simulations show that high-fidelity implementation of this gate is feasible with current circuit QED technology. The proposal is quite general and can be applied to implement the proposed gate with two microwave resonators or two optical cavities coupled to a single three-level natural or artificial atom.

niSWAP and NTCP gates realized in a circuit QED system

K. Essammouni, A. Chouikh, Taoufik Said +1 more

Based on superconducting qubit coupled to a resonator driven by a strong microwave field, we propose a method to implement two quantum logic gates ([Formula: see text]SWAP and NTCP gates) of one qubit simultaneously controlling [Formula: see text] qubits selected from [Formula: see text] qubits in a circuit QED [Formula: see text] by introducing qubit–qubit interaction. The interaction between the qubits and the circuit QED can be achieved by tuning the gate voltage and the external flux. The operation times of the logic gates are much smaller than the decoherence time and dephasing time. Moreover, the numerical simulation under the influence of the gates operations shows that the scheme could be achieved efficiently with presently available techniques.
