Jincheng Zhang
Abstract
This paper explores the potential of utilizing non-spin qubits, such as superconducting quantum rings or quantum photons, for building fault-tolerant quantum computers through topological encoding. Traditional topological quantum computing relies heavily on spin qubits, presenting limitations in material requirements and scalability. This research investigates a novel topological encoding scheme leveraging the intrinsic properties of non-spin qubits to encode and transmit quantum information, ultimately aiming for robust quantum computation. The core concept involves exploiting the unique topological features inherent in these systems, offering a pathway to circumvent the challenges associated with spin-based approaches. We present a theoretical framework outlining the design principles and potential advantages of such an approach. The key focus is on demonstrating how the inherent robustness of topological encoding can be applied to non-spin qubits, paving the way for more practical and scalable quantum computing architectures.
