First, several types of scalable solid state quantum bits were developed, which demonstrated controlled quan- tum coherence in artificial mesoscopic structures [–] and eventually led to the devel- opment of structures, which contain hundreds of qubits and show signatures of global quantum coherence (see [, ] and references therein).

  • Redefining Metrics in Near-Term Devices for Quantum Information
    Mo01 Redefining metrics in near-term devices for quantum information processing Antonio C´orcoles IBM E-mail: [email protected] The outstanding progress in experimental quantum computing over the last couple of decades has pushed multi-qubit gate error rates in some platforms well below 1%. How- ever, as the systems have grown in size and complexity so has the richness of the inter- actions within them, making the meaning of gate fidelity fade when taken isolated from its environment. In this talk I will discuss this topic and offer alternatives to benchmark the performance of small quantum processors for near-term applications.

While non-Clifford noise is ubiquitous in experiments, the error threshold under non-Clifford noise cannot be efficiently treated with known approaches. We construct an efficient scheme for estimating the error threshold of one-dimensional quantum repetition code under non-Clifford noise[1].

  • Magnetically Induced Transparency of a Quantum Metamaterial Composed of Twin flux Qubits

Besedin2, S. Butz1, O.V. Astafiev2,3,6, U. Hübner 4 & A.V. Ustinov1,2 Quantum theory is expected to govern the electromagnetic properties of a quantum metamaterial, an artificially fabricated medium composed of many quantum objects acting as 1234567890():,; artificial atoms. Propagation of electromagnetic waves through such a medium is accompanied by excitations of intrinsic quantum transitions within individual meta-atoms and modes corresponding to the interactions between them. Here we demonstrate an experiment in which an array of double-loop type superconducting flux qubits is embedded into a microwave transmission line. We observe that in a broad frequency range the transmission coefficient through the metamaterial periodically depends on externally applied magnetic field. Field-controlled switching of the ground state of the meta-atoms induces a large suppression of the transmission. Moreover, the excitation of meta-atoms in the array leads to a large resonant enhancement of the transmission. We anticipate possible applications of the observed frequency-tunable transparency in superconducting quantum networks. 1 Physikalisches Institut, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, D-76131 Karlsruhe, Germany. 2 Russian Quantum Center, National University of Science and Technology MISIS, Moscow, 119049, Russia. 3 Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Dolgoprudny, 141700 Moscow region, Russia. 4 Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology, PO Box 100239, D-07702 Jena, Germany. 5 Center for Theoretical Physics of Complex Systems, Institute for Basic Science, Daejeon, 34051, Republic of Korea.

We map the system on the Tavis-Cummings model accounting for the disorder in frequencies of the qubits. The complex transmittance is calculated with the parameters taken from state-of-the-art experiments. We demonstrate that photon phase shift measurements allow to distinguish individual resonances in the metamaterial with up to 100 qubits, in spite of the decoherence spectral width being remarkably larger than the effective coupling constant.

  • Quantum Engineering
    QUANTUM ENGINEERING Quantum engineering – the design and fabrication of quantum coherent structures – has emerged as a field in physics with important potential applications. This book provides a self-contained presentation of the theoretical methods and experimental results in quantum engineering. The book covers such topics as the quantum theory of electric circuits; theoretical methods of quantum optics in application to solid-state circuits; the quantum theory of noise, decoherence and measurements; Landauer formalism for quantum trans- port; the physics of weak superconductivity; and the physics of a 2-dimensional electron gas in semiconductor heterostructures. The theory is complemented by up-to-date experimental data to help put it into context. Aimed at graduate students in physics, the book will enable readers to start their own research and apply the theoretical methods and results to their current experimental situation. a. m. zagoskin is a Lecturer in Physics at Loughborough University, UK.

  • Perfect Quantum Metamaterial
    Perfect Quantum Metamaterial Scientists have devised a way to build a "quantum metamaterial"—an engineered material with exotic properties not found in nature—using ultracold atoms trapped in an artificial crystal composed of light. The theoretical work represents a step toward manipulating atoms to transmit information, perform complex simulations or function as powerful sensors. [11] An optical chip developed at INRS by Prof. Roberto Morandotti's team overcomes a number of obstacles in the development of quantum computers, which are expected to revolutionize information processing. An international research team has demonstrated that on-chip quantum frequency combs can be used to simultaneously generate multiphoton entangled quantum bit (qubit) states. [10] Optical photons would be ideal carriers to transfer quantum information over large distances. Researchers envisage a network where information is processed in certain nodes and transferred between them via photons. [9] While physicists are continually looking for ways to unify the theory of relativity, which describes large-scale phenomena, with quantum theory, which describes small-scale phenomena, computer scientists are searching for technologies to build the quantum computer using Quantum Information. In August 2013, the achievement of "fully deterministic" quantum teleportation, using a hybrid technique, was reported. On 29 May 2014, scientists announced a reliable way of transferring data by quantum teleportation. Quantum teleportation of data had been done before but with highly unreliable methods. The accelerating electrons explain not only the Maxwell Equations and the Special Relativity, but the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation, the Wave-Particle Duality and the electron’s spin also, building the Bridge between the Classical and Quantum Theories.

  • Renninger's Gedankenexperiment, the Collapse of the Wave Function in a Rigid Quantum Metamaterial and the Reality of the Quant
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE www.nature.com/scientificreportsprovided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository OPEN Renninger’s Gedankenexperiment, the collapse of the wave function in a rigid quantum metamaterial and Received: 14 August 2015 Accepted: 6 June 2018 the reality of the quantum state Published: xx xx xxxx vector Sergey E. Savel’ev 1 & Alexandre M. Zagoskin1,2 A popular interpretation of the “collapse” of the wave function is as being the result of a local interaction (“measurement”) of the quantum system with a macroscopic system (“detector”), with the ensuing loss of phase coherence between macroscopically distinct components of its quantum state vector. Nevetheless as early as in 1953 Renninger suggested a Gedankenexperiment, in which the collapse is triggered by non-observation of one of two mutually exclusive outcomes of the measurement, i.e., in the absence of interaction of the quantum system with the detector. This provided a powerful argument in favour of “physical reality” of (nonlocal) quantum state vector. In this paper we consider a possible version of Renninger’s experiment using the light propagation through a birefringent quantum metamaterial. Its realization would provide a clear visualization of a wave function collapse produced by a “non-measurement”, and make the concept of a physically real quantum state vector more acceptable. Te central element of the transition from quantum to classical behaviour (e.g., during the measurement) is the loss of phase coherence between the components of the wave function corresponding to macroscopically dis- tinguishable states of the system1.

  • Quantum Information Processing with Superconducting Circuits: a Review
    Quantum Information Processing with Superconducting Circuits: a Review G. Wendin Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience - MC2, Chalmers University of Technology, SE-41296 Gothenburg, Sweden Abstract. During the last ten years, superconducting circuits have passed from being interesting physical devices to becoming contenders for near-future useful and scalable quantum information processing (QIP). Advanced quantum simulation experiments have been shown with up to nine qubits, while a demonstration of Quantum Supremacy with fifty qubits is anticipated in just a few years. Quantum Supremacy means that the quantum system can no longer be simulated by the most powerful classical supercomputers. Integrated classical-quantum computing systems are already emerging that can be used for software development and experimentation, even via web interfaces. Therefore, the time is ripe for describing some of the recent development of super- conducting devices, systems and applications. As such, the discussion of superconduct- ing qubits and circuits is limited to devices that are proven useful for current or near future applications. Consequently, the centre of interest is the practical applications of QIP, such as computation and simulation in Physics and Chemistry.

We introduce a single-photon detector design operating in the microwave domain, based on a weakly nonlinear metamaterial where the nonlinearity is provided by a large number of Josephson junctions. The combination of weak nonlinearity and large spatial extent circumvents well-known obstacles limiting approaches based on a localized Kerr medium. Using numerical many-body simulations we show that the single-photon detection fidelity increases with the length of the metamaterial to approach one at experi- mentally realistic lengths.
