Abstract

Superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities provide an excellent platform for storing quantum information as quantum $d$-level systems (qudits) due to their exceptionally long lifetimes and large accessible Hilbert spaces. A common strategy to manipulate the states is to use a nonlinear element like a transmon. There are, however, several challenges to building a 3D SRF architecture while maintaining a long cavity lifetime. We demonstrate our successful integration of transmons with single-cell Nb SRF cavities and the ability to prepare several non-classical states. Finally, we discuss our strategies to improve the coherence times, gate schemes, and extend the system for building a multi-qudit quantum processor.

Advances in SRF cavity architectures for quantum computing

Tanay Roy

Superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities offer an excellent platform for storing and processing quantum information due to their exceptionally long lifetimes and large accessible Hilbert spaces. A common strategy to manipulate the quantum states is to use a nonlinear element like a transmon. Nevertheless, constructing a 3D SRF architecture with sustained cavity lifetimes presents several challenges. In this talk, we present our successful integration of transmons with single-cell Nb SRF cavities, enabling the preparation of several non-classical states. Preliminary results reveal the potential of this platform to build a qudit-based quantum computer, departing from traditional qubit-based architectures. We discuss strategies to enhance coherence times, develop high-fidelity gate schemes, and expand the system for constructing a multi-qudit quantum processor. Furthermore, we explore how this architecture can bolster dark matter detection efficiency through multi-photon quantum state preparation.

Superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities are excellent choices for storing and manipulating quantum information as quantum d-level systems (qudits) due to their exceptionally long lifetimes and large accessible Hilbert spaces. A common strategy to manipulate the states is to use a nonlinear element like a transmon. We present preliminary experimental results obtained with cavity displacements and selective number dependent arbitrary phase gates for universal qudit control, and its application towards High-energy physics (HEP) simulations and beyond. We discuss the advantages and challenges associated with building a 3D SRF architecture while maintaining long cavity lifetimes in the presence of lossy components. We show how the system coherence properties can be preserved by carefully engineering to minimize the participation of the long coherence modes in different loss channels, while ensuring sufficient quantum controllability. We further discuss the path towards building multi-qudit systems.

Towards multi-qudit quantum processor using superconducting RF cavities

Tanay Roy

Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities made using high-purity Niobium can reach single photon lifetimes longer than a second with proper treatment [1]. These resonator cavities are thus an excellent choice for storing higher-dimensional quantum states. However, preparing and manipulating quantum states with larger photon numbers require a nonlinear component, like a transmon, with a sufficiently long coherence time. With the advancement in materials processing enabling coherence times for transmons exceeding hundreds of micro-seconds, one can encode and process quantum information using d-levels (qudit) of the resonators. In this talk, we will present preliminary results showing the control of a single-qudit and our progress toward building multi-qudit architecture using multi-mode SRF cavities.

Exploration of superconducting multi-mode cavity architectures for quantum computing

Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities coupled to transmon circuits have proven to be a promising platform for building high-coherence quantum information processors. An essential aspect of this realization involves designing high quality factor three-dimensional superconducting cavities to extend the lifetime of quantum systems. To increase the computational capability of this architecture, we are exploring a multi-mode approach. This paper presents the design optimization process of a multi-cell SRF cavity to perform quantum computation based on an existing design developed in the scope of particle accelerator technology. We perform parametric electromagnetic simulations to evaluate and optimize the design. In particular, we focus on the analysis of the interaction between a nonlinear superconducting circuit known as the transmon and the cavity. This parametric design optimization is structured to serve as a blueprint for future studies on similar systems.
