Pseudo-digital quantum bits

Mark G. Friesen, Robert Joynt, M. A. Eriksson

Quantum computers are analog devices; thus they are highly susceptible to accumulative errors arising from classical control electronics. Fast operation—as necessitated by decoherence—makes gating errors very likely. In most current designs for scalable quantum computers, it is not possible to satisfy both the requirements of low decoherence errors and low gating errors. Here, we introduce a hardware-based technique for pseudo-digital gate operation. We perform self-consistent simulations of semiconductor quantum dots, finding that pseudo-digital techniques reduce operational error rates by more than two orders of magnitude, thus facilitating fast operation.

Towards Scalable Quantum Key Distribution: A Machine Learning-Based Cascade Protocol Approach

Hasan Abbas Al-Mohammed, Saif M. Al-Kuwari, Hashir Kuniyil +1 more

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is a pivotal technology in the quest for secure communication, harnessing the power of quantum mechanics to ensure robust data protection. However, scaling QKD to meet the demands of high-speed, real-world applications remains a significant challenge. Traditional key rate determination methods, dependent on complex mathematical models, often fall short in efficiency and scalability. In this paper, we propose an approach that involves integrating machine learning (ML) techniques with the Cascade error correction protocol to enhance the scalability and efficiency of QKD systems. Our ML-based approach utilizes an autoencoder framework to predict the Quantum Bit Error Rate (QBER) and final key length with over 99\% accuracy. This method significantly reduces error correction time, maintaining a consistently low computation time even with large input sizes, such as data rates up to 156 Mbps. In contrast, traditional methods exhibit exponentially increasing computation times as input sizes grow, highlighting the superior scalability of our ML-based solution. Through comprehensive simulations, we demonstrate that our method not only accelerates the error correction process but also optimizes resource utilization, making it more cost-effective and practical for real-world deployment. The Cascade protocol's integration further enhances system security by dynamically adjusting error correction based on real-time QBER observations, providing robust protection against potential eavesdropping. Our research establishes a new benchmark for scalable, high-throughput QKD systems, proving that machine learning can significantly advance the field of quantum cryptography. This work continues the evolution towards truly scalable quantum communication.

Decoherence Control in Open Quantum Systems for Scalable Quantum Technologies

Muhammad Saleem Samejo, Sibghatullah Khoso, Ihsan Ahmed +1 more

Quantum communication provides essentially secure transmission of information and quantum sensing provides measurement sensitivities better than classical. These powers come because of unique quantum processes, especially superposition and entanglement. Although there is a significant theoretical and experimental development, the phenomenon of decoherence is still one of the main limiting factors in performance and scalability of quantum devices. The importance of this study is that it considers an active approach to decoherence as one of the key impediments to scalable quantum technologies. Although the research on the noise sources and error mechanisms has been done extensively, the characterization is not enough to be applied to the real world. This study makes use of a theoretical and computation effort to explore scalable quantum technologies integrated decoherence control strategies. The research paper is based on the open quantum systems framework, in which quantum systems are represented as finite-dimensional systems that interact with the external environment. The findings of the study highlight that active decoherence control plays an important role in enhancing performance of open quantum systems. Without any control, the simulated quantum system is characterized by a fast decoherence time, coherence times are short, about 20 u ms, and the physical error rate is about 2.5%. The hybrid strategy is a feasible way to achieve fault-tolerant quantum operation and the transition point between theory-based control architectures and experimental hardware limitations, thus speeding up the development of reliable large-scale quantum technologies. The findings affirm that each of the isolated methods like dynamical decoupling, quantum error correction, or reservoir engineering can only be a partial solution when used alone. Adaptive and real-time control schemes responding dynamically to changing noise environments also require further research to develop them.
