Cavity-mediated long-range interaction for fast multiqubit quantum logic operations

Abstract

Interactions among qubits are essential for performing two-qubit quantum logic operations. However, nature gives us only nearest neighbor interactions in simple and controllable settings. Here we propose a strategy to induce interactions among two atomic entities that are not necessarily neighbors of each other through their common coupling with a cavity field. This facilitates fast multiqubit quantum logic operations through a set of two-qubit operations. Using its explicit position dependence, this interaction can be employed for simulation of quantum spin systems. The ideas presented here are applicable to various quantum-information proposals for atom-based qubits such as trapped ions, atoms trapped in optical cavities, and optical lattices.

Proposal for realizing a multiqubit tunable phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling n target qubits using cavity QED

Chui‐Ping Yang, Qi-Ping Su, Jinming Liu

We propose a way to realize a multiqubit tunable phase gate of one qubit simultaneously controlling $n$ target qubits with atoms in cavity QED. In this proposal, classical pulses interact with atoms outside a cavity only, thus the experimental challenge of applying a pulse to an intracavity single atom without affecting other atoms in the same cavity is avoided. Because of employing a first-order large detuning, the gate can be performed fast when compared with the use of a second-order large detuning. Furthermore, the gate operation time is independent of the number of qubits. This proposal is quite general and can be applied to various superconducting qubits coupled to a resonator, nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to a microsphere cavity, or quantum dots in cavity QED.

Fast two-qubit gates for quantum computing in semiconductor quantum dots using a photonic microcavity

Dmitry Solenov, Sophia E. Economou, T. L. Reinecke

Implementations for quantum computing require fast single- and multiqubit quantum gate operations. In the case of optically controlled quantum dot qubits, theoretical designs for long-range two- or multiqubit operations satisfying all the requirements in quantum computing are not yet available. We have developed a design for a fast, long-range two-qubit gate mediated by a photonic microcavity mode using excited states of the quantum-dot-cavity system that addresses these needs. This design does not require identical qubits, it is compatible with available optically induced single-qubit operations, and it advances opportunities for scalable architectures. We show that the gate fidelity can exceed 90$%$ in experimentally accessible systems.

Switchable Next-Nearest-Neighbor Coupling for Controlled Two-Qubit Operations

Peng Zhao, Peng Xu, Dong Lan +3 more

Minimizing gate depth is important for extending the computational power of a noisy quantum processor, and native multiqubit gates could dramatically reduce the gate depth of generic circuits. To that end, although various approaches have been proposed, practical realization may be hindered by stringent control requirements, or by poor compatibility with existing schemes for one- or two-qubit operations. Here researchers employ a scalable architecture comprising two types of qubits to realize switchable coupling. This allows for a simple control strategy to realize native three-qubit gates, which may become a key element in $e.g.$ quantum chemistry simulations.

Ion-mediated interaction and controlled-phase-gate operation between two atomic qubits

Subhra Mudli, Subhanka Mal, Sinchan Snigdha Rej +2 more

We propose a toy model of ion-atom hybrid quantum system for quantum computing. We show that when two atomic qubits in two largely separated optical tweezers interact with a single trapped ion through Rydberg excitation of the atoms, there exists an ion-mediated atom-atom interaction which exceeds the direct interatomic interaction at large separation. We employ this mediated interaction to demonstrate a two-qubit control phase-gate operation with 97% fidelity by addressing the individual atomic qubits with lasers.

A scheme for quantum logic gate based on coherent-state qubits in cavity QED system

Shi-Qing Tang, Shunlong Luo, Jiayi Xu

A two-qubit quantum swap gate scheme based on coherent state qubit is proposed in cavity quantum electrodynamics system. Our scheme adopt the interaction between the Λ-type atomic ensemble and the two-mode optical cavity, and the swap gate can be realized directly only one step, so as to save a lot of quantum resources and reduce the number of single qubit rotation operations in the actual quantum information processing. It is found that under the condition of large detuning limit, the excited states of atoms are adiabatically eliminated, and the decoherence caused by the spontaneous emission of atoms is effectively suppressed. All atoms in the optical cavity are universally addressed, which reduces the experimental operation difficulty of the scheme. The fidelity of the quantum logic gate is maintained at a very high level when the photon loss of the cavity field is considered. Compared with the single-atom scheme, it is found that the atom-cavity interaction time required by the atomic ensemble scheme is inversely proportional to the number of atoms, so that the speed of the quantum logic gate can be increased by N times. Therefore, in principle, as long as enough atoms interacting with the optical field, an effective coupling of any atom-cavity field can be generated, which is conducive to selecting the appropriate quantum gate operation time in practical operation and effectively avoiding decoherence.

Two-qubit entangling gates between distant atomic qubits in a lattice

Alexandre Cesa, John Martin

Arrays of qubits encoded in the ground-state manifold of neutral atoms trapped in optical (or magnetic) lattices appear to be a promising platform for the realization of a scalable quantum computer. Two-qubit conditional gates between nearest-neighbor qubits in the array can be implemented by exploiting the Rydberg blockade mechanism, as was shown by D. Jaksch et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 2208 (2000)]. However, the energy shift due to dipole-dipole interactions causing the blockade falls off rapidly with the interatomic distance, and protocols based on direct Rydberg blockade typically fail to operate between atoms separated by more than one lattice site. In this work, we propose an extension of the protocol of Jaksch et al. for controlled-$Z$ and controlled-not gates which works in the general case where the qubits are not nearest neighbors in the array. Our proposal relies on the Rydberg excitation hopping along a chain of ancilla noncoding atoms connecting the qubits on which the gate is to be applied. The dependence of the gate fidelity on the number of ancilla atoms, the blockade strength, and the decay rates of the Rydberg states is investigated. A comparison between our implementation of a distant controlled-not gate and one based on a sequence of nearest-neighbor two-qubit gates is also provided.
