We present a derivation and numerous applications of a compact explicit formula for the average fidelity of a quantum operation on a finite dimensional quantum system. The formula can be applied to averages over particularly relevant subspaces; it is easily generalized to multi-component systems, and as a special result, we show that when the same completely positive trace-preserving map is applied to a large number of qubits with one-bit fidelity F close to unity, the average fidelity of the operation on the full K-bit register scales as $F^{3K/2}$.
A simple formula for the average gate fidelity of a quantum dynamical operation
本文提出了一个简单的公式,用于计算酉量子门和量子点上的一般量子操作之间的平均保真度,推广了Bowman等人[Phys. Lett. A 294,258(2002)]。该公式可用于实验测定平均门保真度。我们还给出了Horodecki等人[Phys. Rev. A 60,1888(1999)]的一个公式的简化证明,该公式将平均门保真度与纠缠保真度联系起来。
Fidelity of remote state preparation can be enhanced by local operation
远程态制备(Remote State Preparation,RSP)是一种量子信息协议,它允许在一个预先共享的非经典资源态和一个经典信道的帮助下,在一个遥远的位置制备一个量子态。成功完成此任务的效率可以通过资源状态的RSP-fidelity来表示。在本文中,我们研究的影响,通过施加一定的本地操作的资源状态上的RSP-fidelity。我们证明了对任何单位局部操作,RSP保真度都不会增加。然而,对于非单位的本地操作,如本地振幅阻尼信道,我们发现,一些资源状态可以被增强,以增加的RSP保真度。给出了对称局部幅度阻尼信道增强贝尔对角资源状态的最佳参数。此外,我们还证明了在局域退相干的情况下,响应面保真度会突然变化甚至瞬间消失。
Quantum information processing is in real systems often limited by dissipation, stemming from remaining uncontrolled interaction with microscopic degrees of freedom. Given recent experimental progress, we consider weak dissipation, resulting in a small error probability per operation. Here, we find a simple formula for the fidelity reduction of any desired quantum operation. Interestingly, this reduction is independent of the specific operation; it depends only on the operation time and the dissipation. Using our formula, we investigate the situation where dissipation in different parts of the…
Most implementations of quantum gate operations rely on external control fields to drive the evolution of the quantum system. Generating these control fields requires significant efforts to design the suitable control Hamiltonians. Furthermore, any error in the control fields reduces the fidelity of the implemented control operation with respect to the ideal target operation. Achieving sufficiently fast gate operations at low error rates remains therefore a huge challenge. In this work, we present a novel approach to overcome this challenge by eliminating, for specific gate operations, the tim…
Superconducting qubits provide a promising path toward building large-scale quantum computers. The simple and robust transmon qubit has been the leading platform, achieving multiple milestones. However, fault-tolerant quantum computing calls for qubit operations at error rates significantly lower than those exhibited in the state of the art. Consequently, alternative superconducting qubits with better error protection have attracted increasing interest. Among them, fluxonium is a particularly promising candidate, featuring large anharmonicity and long coherence times. Here, we engineer a fluxo…
Optimal Clock Speed of Single-Qubit Operations on Open Quantum Systems
量子算法的有效实现需要具有高保真度的单或多量子比特门。在这份报告中,我们报告说,在开放量子系统上的单量子比特门操作的保真度有一个最大值对应的驱动振幅的最佳值的存在下,驱动诱导的退相干。为了证明这一点,我们使用了之前报道的波动调节量子主方程[Phys. Rev. A 97,063837(2018)]。保真度被发现是一个函数的驱动引起的耗散项以及所产生的量子位环境耦合的弛豫项,因此,它的行为与驱动振幅的非单调。最佳驱动振幅的存在意味着开放量子系统上的单量子比特操作将具有最佳时钟速度。
Silicon spin qubits satisfy the necessary criteria for quantum information processing. However, a demonstration of high fidelity state preparation and readout combined with high fidelity single- and two-qubit gates, all of which must be present for quantum error correction, has been lacking. We use a two qubit Si/SiGe quantum processor to demonstrate state preparation and readout with fidelity over 97%, combined with both single- and two-qubit control fidelities exceeding 99%. The operation of the quantum processor is quantitatively characterized using gate set tomography and randomized benchm…

Quantum computers based on silicon are promising candidates for long term universal quantum computation due to the long coherence times of electron and nuclear spin states. Furthermore, the continuous progress of micro- and nano- electronics, also related to the scaling of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) systems, makes possible to control the displacement of single dopants thus suggesting their exploitation as qubit holders. Flip-flop qubit is a donor based qubit (DQ) where interactions between qubits are achievable for distance up to several hundred nanometers. In this work, a linear array of…
In our work, we compare three teleportation protocols: the original protocol, the photon subtraction protocol, and the protocol with a cubic phase gate. We evaluate the fidelity of each protocol using the example of teleportation of the squeezed state and the Schrodinger's cat state. We show that, under equal conditions, the teleportation scheme with a cubic phase gate achieves significantly higher fidelity than the other protocols considered.
