Abstract

In this paper, we present a realistic application of the coherence protection method proposed in the previous article. A qubit of information encoded on the two spin states of a Rubidium isotope is protected from the action of electric and magnetic fields.

Coherence protection by the quantum Zeno effect and nonholonomic control in a Rydberg rubidium isotope

The protection of the coherence of open quantum systems against the influence of their environment is a very topical issue. A scheme is proposed here which protects a general quantum system from the action of a set of arbitrary uncontrolled unitary evolutions. This method draws its inspiration from ideas of standard error correction (ancilla adding, coding and decoding) and the quantum Zeno effect. A demonstration of our method on a simple atomic system---namely, a rubidium isotope---is proposed.

Non-holonomic control III: coherence protection by the quantum zeno effect and non-holonomic control

In this paper, we present a coherence protection method based upon a multidimensional generalization of the Quantum Zeno Effect, as well as ideas from the coding theory. The non-holonomic control technique is employed as a physical tool which allows its effective implementation. The two limiting cases of small and large quantum systems are considered.

Contrôle Quantique et Protection de la Cohérence par effet Zénon, Applications à l'Informatique Quantique

E. Brion

Le contrôle quantique constitue un enjeu majeur de la Physique contemporaine. Après un bref tour d'horizon du domaine, nous présentons une méthode, appelée contrôle non holonôme, qui permet d'imposer à système quantique quelconque une évolution unitaire arbitrairement choisie. Dans le contexte de l'Informatique Quantique, cette technique peut être utilisée pour réaliser n'importe quelle porte quantique : à titre d'exemple, nous montrons comment appliquer une porte CNOT à un système de deux atomes de Césium froids en interaction. L'interaction de l'ordinateur avec son environnement risque de compromettre sa fiabilité. Le développement récent de la correction d'erreurs quantiques, inspirée des techniques classiques, suggère néanmoins que ce danger peut être évité. Après une présentation succincte du cadre général de la correction d'erreurs, nous proposons une méthode de protection de l'information fondée sur l'effet Zénon. Cette méthode est ensuite appliquée à un atome de Rubidium.

Coherence protection by random coding

We show that multidimensional Zeno effect combined with non-holonomic control allows to efficiently protect quantum systems from decoherence by a method similar to classical coding.Contrary to the conventional approach, our method is applicable to arbitrary error-inducing Hamiltonians and general quantum systems.We also propose algorithms of finding encoding that approaches the Hamming upper bound along with methods of practical realizations of the encodings.Two new codes protecting 2 information qubits out of 7 and 4 information qubits out of 9 against a single error with arbitrarily small probability of failure are constructed as an example.

Geometric Phase-Driven Non-Abelian Holonomic Gates in Multivalley Silicon Spin Qubits for Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing

Abstract In this study we propose and numerically validate a protocol for high-fidelity non-Abelian holonomic gates in Si/SiGe spin-valley qubits, leveraging geometric phases for inherent fault tolerance. By combining electrical control of valley state energy splitting with cyclic in-plane magnetic fields, we engineer a protected subspace where quantum information evolves via geometric phases. Our simulations show these gates achieve 99.4% fidelity and maintain robustness against charge noise, outperforming conventional dynamic gates by 15% under realistic conditions. The gate exploits cyclic modulation of in-plane magnetic fields while dynamically tuning valley splitting to maintain Valley-Zeeman matching, yielding a Berry connection that enables non-commutative holonomies. Numerical analysis reveals distinct operational regimes, from hybridized states for phase accumulation to isolated states for initialization, within experimentally accessible parameter ranges. This work establishes spin-valley qubits as a promising platform for geometric quantum computation, combining holonomic operations' noise resilience with silicon's scalability. The demonstrated performance and compatibility with existing architectures suggest a viable path toward large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum processors.
