Quantum systems displaying many accessible levels could be very powerful units of forthcoming quantum computing architectures. Indeed, the large number of available states could significantly simplify the actual implementation of several algorithms. Here we show that artificial molecular spins are particularly suitable to realize such a platform. In particular, multispin molecules with competing interactions provide a large number of low-energy multiplets in which decoherence is strongly suppressed compared to a single spin $S$ and does not increase with the system size. This feature, combined with the proper connectivity between the multiplets, enables the implementation of complex operations with remarkable fidelity, thus fully unleashing the potential of the molecular approach. We demonstrate the power of this approach by numerically simulating the implementation of one- and two-qudit gates on realistic molecular systems.Quantum systems displaying many accessible levels could be very powerful units of forthcoming quantum computing architectures.

Blueprint of a Molecular Spin Quantum Processor

A. Chiesa, S. Roca, S. Chicco +6 more

The implementation of a universal quantum processor still poses fundamental issues related to error mitigation and correction, which demand to investigate also platforms and computing schemes alternative to the main stream. A possibility is offered by employing multi-level logical units (qudits), naturally provided by molecular spins. Here we present the blueprint of a Molecular Spin Quantum Processor consisting of single Molecular Nanomagnets, acting as qudits, placed within superconducting resonators adapted to the size and interactions of these molecules to achieve a strong single spin to photon coupling. We show how to implement a universal set of gates in such a platform and to readout the final qudit state. Single-qudit unitaries (potentially embedding multiple qubits) are implemented by fast classical drives, while a novel scheme is introduced to obtain two-qubit gates via resonant photon exchange. The latter is compared to the dispersive approach, finding in general a significant improvement. The performance of the platform is assessed by realistic numerical simulations of gate sequences, such as Deutsch-Josza and quantum simulation algorithms. The very good results demonstrate the feasibility of the molecular route towards a universal quantum processor.The implementation of a universal quantum processor still poses fundamental issues related to error mitigation and correction, which demand to investigate also platforms and computing schemes alternative to the main stream.
