Large-scale quantum silicon photonic devices can represent a viable route to the generation of large entangled quantum states (graph states)[1], exploiting the generation of multiple pairs of photons on chip. Graph state applications are diverse, spanning from measurement-based quantum computing to quantum error correction and quantum communication [2]. Silicon photonics represents a promising platform for its stability, reconfigurability, high-density and high-performance optical components.

Programmable four-photon graph states on a silicon chip

Jeremy C. Adcock, Caterina Vigliar, Raffaele Santagati +2 more

Future quantum computers require a scalable architecture on a scalable technology-one that supports millions of high-performance components. Measurement-based protocols, using graph states, represent the state of the art in architectures for optical quantum computing. Silicon photonics technology offers enormous scale and proven quantum optical functionality. Here we produce and encode photonic graph states on a mass-manufactured chip, using four on-chip-generated photons. We programmably generate all types of four-photon graph state, implementing a basic measurement-based protocol, and measure high-visibility heralded interference of the chip's four photons. We develop a model of the device and bound the dominant sources of error using Bayesian inference. The combination of measurement-based quantum computation, silicon photonics technology, and on-chip multi-pair sources will be a useful one for future scalable quantum information processing with photons.

Measurement-Based Quantum Computing on a Photonic Chip

Jeldrik Huster, Louis L. Hohmann, Kevin Edelmann +1 more

Integrated photonics provides a scalable platform for quantum information processing. In this context, measurement-based quantum computing (MBQC) offers an attractive approach in which quantum computation is realised by adaptive measurements on highly entangled graph states, circumventing the need for deterministic photon-photon interactions. Here, we demonstrate MBQC on an integrated silicon photonic chip capable of generating photonic graph states with up to four qubits. We achieve fidelities of $F_{Star} = (83.5 \pm 1.8)\,\%$ and $F_{Lin} = (75.6 \pm 1.1)\,\%$ for four-photon star and linear graph states, respectively. We use these resource states to implement MBQC-based single- and two-qubit gates and to demonstrate Grover's search algorithm and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. These results establish the feasibility of reconfigurable four-photon MBQC on an integrated photonic platform and provide a foundation for future larger-scale implementations.

A Programmable Photonic Chip for High-dimensional Quantum Computing

Jieshan Huang, Yulin Chi, Zhanchuan Zhang +3 more

Controlling and programming quantum devices to process quantum information by the unit of 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 high-dimensional quantum processor in a silicon-photonic in-tegrated circuit, which monolithically integrates all the key functionalities and capabilities of initialisation, manipulation, and measurement of the two quantum quart (ququart) states, and demonstrate its enhancement of quantum computational paral-lelism. By reprogramming the processor, we implemented the basic quantum Fourier transform algorithms, all in quaternary, to benchmark the enhancement of quantum parallelism using qudits. 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.

Large-scale full-programmable quantum walk and its applications

Yizhi Wang, Yingwen Liu, Junwei Zhan +22 more

With photonics, the quantum computational advantage has been demonstrated on the task of boson sampling. Next, developing quantum-enhanced approaches for practical problems becomes one of the top priorities for photonic systems. Quantum walks are powerful kernels for developing new and useful quantum algorithms. Here we realize large-scale quantum walks using a fully programmable photonic quantum computing system. The system integrates a silicon quantum photonic chip, enabling the simulation of quantum walk dynamics on graphs with up to 400 vertices and possessing full programmability over quantum walk parameters, including the particle property, initial state, graph structure, and evolution time. In the 400-dimensional Hilbert space, the average fidelity of random entangled quantum states after the whole on-chip circuit evolution reaches as high as 94.29$\pm$1.28$\%$. With the system, we demonstrated exponentially faster hitting and quadratically faster mixing performance of quantum walks over classical random walks, achieving more than two orders of magnitude of enhancement in the experimental hitting efficiency and almost half of the reduction in the experimental evolution time for mixing. We utilize the system to implement a series of quantum applications, including measuring the centrality of scale-free networks, searching targets on Erdös-Rényi networks, distinguishing non-isomorphic graph pairs, and simulating the topological phase of higher-order topological insulators. Our work shows one feasible path for quantum photonics to address applications of practical interests in the near future.
