摘要:

量子纠错为以低错误率执行量子计算提供了一条有前景的路径。尽管量子算法的完全容错执行尚未实现,但近期的实验进展以及控制电子学的改进,正使得对应用量子纠错所需操作的日益先进的演示成为可能。在此,我们在重六角格上连接的超导量子比特上执行量子纠错。整个处理器可以编码一个距离为三的逻辑量子比特,并执行多轮容错综合征测量,从而能够纠正电路中的任何单一故障。此外,通过在我们的综合征提取协议中使用动态电路和经典计算,我们可以利用实时反馈来减少能量弛豫错误对综合征的影响,并对量子比特进行标记。我们表明,逻辑错误会因使用完美匹配解码器与最大似然解码器而有所不同。我们观察到,对于匹配解码器,每轮综合征测量的逻辑错误低至约0.04;对于最大似然解码器,则低至约0.03。我们的结果表明,随着量子硬件已进入向完全容错操作发展的新阶段,解码器的更显著改进很可能即将到来。

英文摘要:

Quantum error correction offers a promising path for performing quantum computations with low errors. Although a fully fault-tolerant execution of a quantum algorithm remains unrealized, recent experimental developments, along with improvements in control electronics, are enabling increasingly advanced demonstrations of the necessary operations for applying quantum error correction. Here, we perform quantum error correction on superconducting qubits connected in a heavy-hexagon lattice. The full processor can encode a logical qubit with distance three and perform several rounds of fault-tolerant syndrome measurements that allow the correction of any single fault in the circuitry. Furthermore, by using dynamic circuits and classical computation as part of our syndrome extraction protocols, we can exploit real-time feedback to reduce the impact of energy relaxation error in the syndrome and flag qubits. We show that the logical error varies depending on the use of a perfect matching decoder compared to a maximum likelihood decoder. We observe a logical error per syndrome measurement round as low as $\sim0.04$ for the matching decoder and as low as $\sim0.03$ for the maximum likelihood decoder. Our results suggest that more significant improvements to decoders are likely on the horizon as quantum hardware has reached a new stage of development towards fully fault-tolerant operations.
