    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for encoding two-qubit interactions. A quantum circuit comprises first and second logical qubits, each comprising a Bacon-Shor code block. A first edge of each logical qubit contains physical qubits each coupled to at least one neighboring physical qubit along the first edge along a first axis of the Bloch sphere and a second edge of each logical qubit contains physical qubits each coupled to at least one neighboring physical qubit along the second edge along a second axis of the Bloch sphere. A set of couplers couple the first and second logical qubits along the first axis of the Bloch sphere, with each of the set of couplers coupling a physical qubit along the second edge of the first logical qubit to a corresponding physical qubit along the second edge of the second logical qubit along the first axis of the Bloch sphere.

    摘要: One example includes a current device readout system. The system includes a tunable resonator having a resonant frequency that is associated with a current state of a current device. The tunable resonator can be configured to receive a tone signal having a predetermined frequency from a feedline to determine the current state of the current device. The system also includes an isolation device inductively interconnecting the tunable resonator and the current device. The isolation device can be tunable to isolate the current device in a first state and to facilitate the determination of the current state of the current device in a second state.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for a ZZZ coupler. A first tunable coupler is coupled to the first qubit and tunable via a first control signal. A second tunable coupler is coupled to the first tunable coupler to direct a flux of the first qubit into a tuning loop of the second tunable coupler, such that when a first coupling strength associated with the first tunable coupler is non-zero, a second coupling strength, associated with the second tunable coupler, is a function of a second control signal applied to the second tunable coupler and a state of the first qubit. The second qubit and the third qubit are coupled to one another through the second tunable coupler, such that, when the second coupling strength is non-zero it is energetically favorable for the states of the first and second qubits to assume a specific relationship with respect to the Z-axis.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for coupling two flux qubits. A quantum circuit assembly includes a first flux qubit, having at least two potential energy minima, and a second flux qubit, having at least two potential energy minima. A system formed by the first and second qubits has at least four potential energy minima prior to coupling, each of the four potential energy minima containing at least one eigenstate of a system comprising the first flux qubit and the second flux qubit. A coupler creates a first tunneling path between a first potential energy minimum of the system and a second potential energy minimum of the system, and a second tunneling path between a third potential energy minimum of the system and a fourth potential energy minimum of the system. The coupler creates the first and second tunneling paths between potential energy minima representing states of equal bit parity.
