    Abstract: Methods and systems for performing a surface code error detection cycle. In one aspect, a method includes initializing and applying Hadamard gates to multiple measurement qubits; performing entangling operations on a first set of paired qubits, wherein each pair comprises a measurement qubit coupled to a neighboring data qubit in a first direction; performing entangling operations on a second set of paired qubits, wherein each pair comprises a measurement qubit coupled to a neighboring data qubit in a second or third direction, the second and third direction being perpendicular to the first direction, the second direction being opposite to the third direction; performing entangling operations on a third set of paired qubits, wherein each pair comprises a measurement qubit coupled to a neighboring data qubit in a fourth direction, the fourth direction being opposite to the first direction; applying Hadamard gates to the measurement qubits; and measuring the measurement qubits.

    Abstract: Interconnections for connecting flex circuit boards in classical and/or quantum computing systems can include a first flex circuit board having a removed portion that exposes one or more signal lines and a second flex circuit board having a removed portion that exposes one or more other signal lines. The flex circuit boards can be aligned at the removed portions to form a signal trace gap near the exposed signal lines. Exposed signal lines of the first flex circuit board can be coupled with exposed signal lines of the second flex circuit board. A ground support layer can be coupled to the first flex circuit board and the second flex circuit board along the same side. An isolation plate at least partially covering the signal trace gap can be coupled to the first flex circuit board and/or the second flex circuit board on a side opposite of the ground support layer.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for nonlinear calibration of quantum computing apparatus. In one aspect, elements in a set of experimental data correspond to a respective configuration of control biases for the quantum computing apparatus. An initial physical model comprising one or more model parameters of the quantum computing apparatus is defined. The model is iteratively adjusted to determine a revised physical model, where at each iteration: a set of predictive data corresponding to the set of experimental data is generated, and elements in the predictive data represent a difference between the two smallest eigenvalues of a Hamiltonian characterizing the system qubits for the previous iteration, and are dependent on at least one model parameter of the physical model for the previous iteration; and the model for the previous iteration is adjusted using the obtained experimental data and the generated set of predictive data for the iteration.
