Abstract

We propose a fast scheme involving atoms fixed in an optical cavity to directly implement the universal controlled-unitary gate. The present technique based on adiabatic passage uses dark states well suited for the controlled-rotation operation. We show that these dark states allow the robust implementation of a gate that is a generalization of the controlled-unitary gate to the case where the control qubit can be selected to be an arbitrary state. This gate has potential applications to the rapid implementation of quantum algorithms such as the projective measurement algorithm. This process is decoherence-free since excited atomic states and cavity modes are not populated during the dynamics.

Multiqubit controlled unitary gate by adiabatic passage with an optical cavity

Hayato Goto, Kouichi Ichimura

A new implementation of quantum gates by adiabatic passage with an optical cavity is proposed. This implementation allows one to perform not only elementary gates, such as one-qubit gates and a controlled-NOT gate, but also multiqubit controlled unitary gates. Some quantum gates are numerically simulated. From the simulation results, it is concluded that this implementation of the three-qubit controlled gates is more efficient than decomposing into the elementary gates.

Robust and fast geometric quantum computation with multiqubit gates in cavity QED

Gongwei Lin, Xu‐Bo Zou, Xiu‐Min Lin +1 more

A scheme is proposed for realizing geometric quantum computation with one-qubit unitary gates and $N$-qubit $(N\ensuremath{\ge}2)$ phase gates in cavity QED. In the scheme, the cavity field and excited states are virtually excited by controlling appropriately atom-field couplings and engineering adiabatic passage; thus the gate operations are insensitive to the cavity decay and the atomic spontaneous emission. Furthermore, the $N$-qubit $(N\ensuremath{\ge}2)$ geometric phase gates can be realized just by one step and the required time does not increase with the number of qubits, which can significantly reduce complexity of physical realization of practical quantum computation and quantum algorithms.

Fast CNOT gate via shortcuts to adiabatic passage

Zhe Wang, Yan Xia, Ye‐Hong Chen +1 more

Based on the shortcuts to adiabatic passage, we propose a scheme for directly implementing a controlled-not (CNOT) gate in a cavity quantum electrodynamics system. Moreover, we generalize the scheme to realize a CNOT gate in two separate cavities connected by an optical fiber. The strictly numerical simulation shows that the schemes are fast and insensitive to the decoherence caused by atomic spontaneous emission and photon leakage. In addition, the schemes can provide a theoretical basis for the manipulation of the multiqubit quantum gates in distant nodes of a quantum network.

Fast quantum logical gate by adiabatic passage

Nicolas Sangouard, X. Lacour, S. Guérin +1 more

We present a process for the construction of quantum logical gates which does not require a composition of elementary gates from a universal set. We propose to employ direct techniques adapted to the preparation of specific gates. We illustrate the method by the creation of a SWAP gate by adiabatic passage with an optical cavity. The mechanism constitutes a decoherence-free method in the sense that spontaneous emission and cavity damping are avoided.

Quantum information transfer via adiabatic passage

Yinchun Liu

We propose a relatively robust scheme to implement quantum information transfer via adiabatic passage.When a Λ-type atom interacts with laser and cavity fields adiabatically,the state of the system evolves in a dark state.By the adiabatic passage,we can implement quantum information transfer of all the atomic states.Similarly,the scheme can be used to transfer a cavity mode state.The proposal is robust to restrain the atomic spontaneous emission noise,and transfers quantum information successfully.

Multiple-qubit controlled unitary quantum gate for Rydberg atoms using shortcut to adiabaticity and optimized geometric quantum operations

Meng Li, F.-Q. Guo, Z. Jin +3 more

Multiple-qubit quantum logic gates are an important element in the implementation of quantum computers. The direct construction of multiple-qubit quantum logic gates in an efficient way has important values compared to the construction of multiple-qubit gates using a series of two-qubit and single-qubit gates. We propose a scheme to construct a multiple-qubit ${\mathrm{C}}_{k}\mathrm{U}$ gate ($k$ denotes the number of control qubits and U means the arbitrary universal operation performed on the target qubit) in a neutral atom platform through the Rydberg blockade effect by successively exciting them to Rydberg states. This scheme takes advantage of the shortcut to adiabaticity of inverse engineering, geometric quantum operations, as well as optimized control theory. The geometric quantum computation considered in this manuscript guarantees the robustness to operational errors. Meanwhile, inverse engineering-based shortcut to adiabaticity provides a further advantage in terms of the speed of the system evolution compared to adiabatic processes. An additional feature of our multiple-qubit quantum logic gate is that arbitrary operation on the target atom can be realized by adjusting the amplitude and phase of the laser fields. Numerical simulation of the master equation based on the full Hamiltonian demonstrates the high fidelity of the proposed scheme and its robustness to operational errors and spontaneous emission.
