Abstract

We consider a one-dimensional chain of many superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), serving as charge qubits. Each SQUID is coupled to its nearest neighbor through constant capacitances. We study the quantum logic operations and implementation of entanglement in this system. Arrays with two and three qubits are considered in detail. We show that the creation of entanglement with an arbitrary number of qubits can be implemented, without systematic errors, even when the coupling between qubits is not small. A relatively large coupling constant allows one to increase the clock speed of the quantum computer. We analytically and numerically demonstrate the creation of the entanglement for this case, which can be a good test for the experimental implementation of a relatively simple quantum protocol with many qubits. The logic operations in a system with long-range interaction are not universal. We discuss a possible application of our approach for implementing universal quantum logic for more complex algorithms by decreasing the coupling constant and, correspondingly, decreasing the clock speed. The errors introduced by the long-range interaction for the universal logic gates are estimated analytically and calculated numerically. Our results can be useful for experimental implementation of quantum algorithms using controlled magnetic fluxes and gate voltages applied to the SQUIDs. The algorithms discussed in this paper can be implemented using already existing technologies in superconducting systems with constant interqubit coupling.

Creation of entanglement in a scalable spin quantum computer with long-range dipole-dipole interaction between qubits

D. I. Kamenev, G. P. Berman, V. I. Tsifrinovich

Creation of entanglement is considered theoretically and numerically in an ensemble of spin chains with dipole-dipole interaction between the spins. The unwanted effect of the long-range dipole interaction is compensated by the optimal choice of the parameters of radio-frequency pulses implementing the protocol. The errors caused by (i) the influence of the environment, (ii) nonselective excitations, (iii) influence of different spin chains on each other, (iv) displacements of qubits from their perfect locations, and (v) fluctuations of the external magnetic field are estimated analytically and calculated numerically. For the perfectly entangled state the $z$ component $M$ of the magnetization of the whole system is equal to zero. The errors lead to a finite value of $M$. If the number of qubits in the system is large, $M$ can be detected experimentally. Using the fact that $M$ depends differently on the parameters of the system for each kind of error, varying these parameters would allow one to experimentally determine the most significant source of errors and to optimize correspondingly the quantum computer design in order to decrease the errors and $\ensuremath{\mid}M\ensuremath{\mid}$. Using our approach one can benchmark the quantum computer, decrease the errors, and prepare the quantum computer for implementation of more complex quantum algorithms.

Quantum Entanglement and Controlled Logical Gates Using Coupled SQUID Flux Qubits

Zhongyuan Zhou, Shih‐I Chu, Siyuan Han

We present an approach to realize universal two-bit quantum gates using two SQUID flux qubits. In this approach the basic unit consists of two inductively coupled SQUIDs with realistic device parameters. Quantum logical gates are implemented by applying resonant microwave pulse to the qubits. This procedure is demonstrated by realizing a controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate and the maximally entangled states of the coupled qubits through highly accurate numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation of the system. This coupling scheme is simple and can be readily extended to many-qubit circuits required for scalable quantum information processing.

We report the simulations of the dynamics of quantum-logic operations with large number of qubits (up to 1000). A nuclear-spin chain in which selective excitations of spins are provided by the gradient of the external magnetic field is considered. The spins interact with their nearest neighbors. We simulate the quantum controlled-NOT (CN) gate implementation for remote qubits, which provides the long-distance entanglement. Our approach can be applied to any implementation of quantum-logic gates involving a large number of qubits.

Implementation of quantum logic operations and creation of entanglement in a silicon-based quantum computer with constant interaction

G. P. Berman, Brown, G. W., M. E. Hawley +2 more

We describe how to implement quantum logic operations in a silicon-based quantum computer with phosphorus atoms serving as qubits. The information is stored in the states of nuclear spins and the conditional logic operations are implemented through the electron spins using nuclear-electron hyperfine and electron-electron exchange interactions. The electrons in our computer should stay coherent only during implementation of one Control-Not gate. The exchange interaction is constant and selective excitations are provided by a magnetic field gradient. The quantum logic operations are implemented by rectangular radio-frequency pulses. This architecture is scalable and does not require manufacturing nanoscale electronic gates. As shown in this paper parameters of a quantum protocol can be derived analytically even for a computer with a large number of qubits using our perturbation approach. We present the protocol for initialization of the nuclear spins and the protocol for creation of entanglement. All analytical results are tested numerically using a two-qubit system.

Perturbation Theory and Numerical Modeling of Quantum Logic Operations with a Large Number of Qubits

G. P. Berman, G. D. Doolen, D. I. Kamenev +2 more

The perturbation theory is developed based on small parameters which naturally appear in solid state quantum computation. We report the simulations of the dynamics of quantum logic operations with a large number of qubits (up to 1000). A nuclear spin chain is considered in which selective excitations of spins are provided by having a uniform gradient of the external magnetic field. Quantum logic operations are utilized by applying resonant electromagnetic pulses. The spins interact with their nearest neighbors. We simulate the creation of the long-distance entanglement between remote qubits in the spin chain. Our method enables us to minimize unwanted non-resonant effects in a controlled way. The method we use cannot simulate complicated quantum logic (a quantum computer is required to do this), but it can be useful to test the experimental performance of simple quantum logic operations. We show that: (a) the probability distribution of unwanted states has a ``band'' structure, (b) the directions of spins in typical unwanted states are highly correlated, and (c) many of the unwanted states are high-energy states of a quantum computer (a spin chain). Our approach can be applied to simple quantum logic gates and fragments of quantum algorithms involving a large number of qubits.
