HARDWARE-EFFICIENT FAULT-TOLERANT OPERATIONS WITH SUPERCONDUCTING CIRCUITS

摘要

Techniques for providing hardware-efficient fault-tolerant quantum operations are provided. In some aspects a cavity and an ancilla transmon are used to implement a quantum operation by encoding a logical qubit using more than two energy levels of the cavity, encoding information using more than two energy levels of the ancilla transmon, and creating an interaction between the cavity and the ancilla transmon that decouples at least one error type in the ancilla transmon from the cavity.
