Single-qubit rotations in two-dimensional optical lattices with multiqubit addressing

Abstract

Optical lattices with one atom on each site and interacting via cold controlled collisions provide an efficient way to entangle a large number of qubits with high fidelity. It has already been demonstrated experimentally that this approach is especially suited for the generation of cluster states [O. Mandel et al., Nature 425, 937 (2003)] which reduce the resource requirement for quantum computing to the ability to perform single-qubit rotations and qubit read out. In this paper, we describe how to implement these rotations in one-dimensional and two-dimensional optical lattices without having to address the atoms individually with a laser field.

One-way quantum computing in optical lattices with many-atom addressing

Tim Friesen, David L. Feder

One of the fundamental conditions for one-way quantum computation (1WQC) is the ability to make sequential measurements on isolated qubits that comprise the highly entangled resource for 1WQC, the cluster state. This has been a significant impediment in the implementation of 1WQC with ultracold atoms confined in optical lattices, because the width of the measuring lasers is generally much greater than the atomic (qubit) spacing. We demonstrate that deterministic 1WQC is nevertheless possible, with a polynomial increase in the number of operations, as long as the center of the beams can be positioned with high accuracy and the beam width is reproducible. Extending the number of cluster atoms, the scheme is also able to compensate for accidental measurements of an arbitrary number of nearby qubits.

Quantum Computation with a One-Dimensional Optical Lattice

Jiannis K. Pachos, P. L. Knight

We present an economical dynamical control scheme to perform quantum computation on a one-dimensional optical lattice, where each atom encodes one qubit. The model is based on atom tunneling transitions between neighboring sites of the lattice. They can be activated by external laser beams resulting in a two-qubit phase gate or in an exchange interaction. A realization of the Toffoli gate is presented, which requires only a single laser pulse and no individual atom addressing.

Scalability of quantum computation with addressable optical lattices

Travis Roland Beals, Jiří Vala, K. Birgitta Whaley

We make a detailed analysis of error mechanisms, gate fidelity, and scalability of proposals for quantum computation with neutral atoms in addressable (large lattice constant) optical lattices. We have identified possible limits to the size of quantum computations, arising in three-dimensional (3D) optical lattices from current limitations on the ability to perform single-qubit gates in parallel and in 2D lattices from constraints on laser power. Our results suggest that 3D arrays as large as $100\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}100\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}100$ sites (i.e., $\ensuremath{\sim}{10}^{6}$ qubits) may be achievable, provided two-qubit gates can be performed with sufficiently high precision and degree of parallelizability. The parallelizability of long-range interaction-based two-qubit gates is qualitatively compared to that of collisional gates. Different methods of performing single-qubit gates are compared, and a lower bound of $1\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}5}$ is determined on the error rate for the error mechanisms affecting $^{133}\text{C}\text{s}$ in a blue-detuned lattice with Raman-transition-based single-qubit gates, given reasonable limits on experimental parameters.

Quantum computation in optical lattices via global laser addressing

Alastair Kay, Jiannis K. Pachos

A scheme for globally addressing a quantum computer is presented along with its realization in an optical lattice set-up of one, two or three dimensions. The required resources are mainly those necessary for performing quantum simulations of spin systems with optical lattices, circumventing the necessity for single qubit addressing. We present the control procedures, in terms of laser manipulations, required to realize universal quantum computation. Error avoidance with the help of the quantum Zeno effect is presented and a scheme for globally addressed error correction is given. The latter does not require measurements during the computation, facilitating its experimental implementation. As an illustrative example, the pulse sequence for the factorization of the number 15 is given.

Site-Specific and Coherent Manipulation of Individual Qubits in a 1D Optical Lattice with a 532-nm Site Separation

Hyok Sang Han, Hyun Gyung Lee, D. Cho

We demonstrate gate operations on a single qubit at a specific site without perturbing the coherence of an adjacent qubit in a 1D optical lattice when the site separation is only 532 nm. Three types of spin rotations are performed on the target qubit with fidelities between 0.88±0.05 and 0.99±0.01, whereas the superposition state of the adjacent one is preserved with fidelities between 0.93±0.04 and 0.97±0.04. The qubit is realized by a pair of Zeeman-sensitive ground hyperfine states of a ^{7}Li atom, and each site is identified by its resonance frequency in a magnetic field gradient of 1.6 G/cm. We achieve the site-specific resolving power in the frequency domain by using magic polarization for the lattice beam that allows a Fourier-limited transition linewidth as well as by highly stabilizing the lattice parameters and the ambient conditions. We also discuss a two-atom entanglement scheme using a blockade by cold collisional shifts in a 1D superlattice, for which a coherent manipulation of individual qubits is a prerequisite.

One-way quantum computation with two-photon multiqubit cluster states

Giuseppe Vallone, Enrico Pomarico, F. De Martini +1 more

We describe the application of four-qubit cluster states, built on the simultaneous entanglement of two photons in the degrees of freedom of polarization and linear momentum, for the realization of a complete set of basic operations of one-way quantum computation. These consist of arbitrary single-qubit rotations, either probabilistic or deterministic, and simple two-qubit gates, such as a controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate for equatorial qubits and a universal controlled-phase gate (controlled-$Z$ or CZ) gate acting on arbitrary target qubits. Other basic computation operations, such as the Grover's search and the Deutsch's algorithms, have been realized by using these states. In all the cases we obtained a high value of the operation fidelities. These results demonstrate that cluster states of two photons entangled in many degrees of freedom are good candidates for the realization of more complex quantum computation operations based on a larger number of qubits.
