Abstract: A package-level, integrated high-vacuum ion-chip enclosure having improved thermal characteristics is disclosed. Enclosures in accordance with the present invention include first and second chambers that are located on opposite sides of a chip carrier, where the chambers are fluidically coupled via a conduit through the chip carrier. The ion trap is located in the first chamber and disposed on the chip carrier. A source for generating an atomic flux is located in the second chamber. The separation of the source and ion trap in different chambers affords thermal isolation between them, while the conduit between the chambers enables the ion trap to receive the atomic flux.

Abstract: An apparatus, method and system for resolving an n-number of photons from an optical source multiphoton event, the apparatus includes a cryostat includes a single-pixel superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) configured to receive an optical signal and therefrom produce a corresponding electrical signal, and a current bias source configured to supply a bias current to the SNSPD. The apparatus further includes a low-noise amplifier configured to produce a low-noise amplified electrical signal from the electrical signal, a signal processing circuit configured to receive the low-noise amplified electrical signal having a waveform rising edge of an n-number photon event to produce either a time-differentiated electrical signal by processing the waveform rising edge with a differentiating circuit to generate a differentiated peak corresponding to the n-number photon event, or a time-to-amplitude electrical signal by processing the waveform rising edge with a precision timing circuit to generate a rise time measurement corresponding to the n-number photon event. The apparatus further includes an amplitude discriminating device configured to determine an integer n-number photon event based on measuring a value of the n-number photon event.

Abstract: A modular quantum computer architecture is developed with a hierarchy of interactions that can scale to very large numbers of qubits. Local entangling quantum gates between qubit memories within a single modular register are accomplished using natural interactions between the qubits, and entanglement between separate modular registers is completed via a probabilistic photonic interface between qubits in different registers, even over large distances. This architecture is suitable for the implementation of complex quantum circuits utilizing the flexible connectivity provided by a reconfigurable photonic interconnect network. The subject architecture is made fault-tolerant which is a prerequisite for scalability. An optimal quantum control of multimode couplings between qubits is accomplished via individual addressing the qubits with segmented optical pulses to suppress crosstalk in each register, thus enabling high-fidelity gates that can be scaled to larger qubit registers for quantum computation and simulation.

Abstract: An ion-trap system having a trapping location that is controllable with nanometer-scale precision in three dimensions is disclosed. The ion-trap system includes an ion trap that includes a pair of RF driver electrodes, a pair of tuning electrodes operably coupled with the RF driver electrodes to collectively generate an RF field having an RF null that defines the trapping location, as well as a plurality of DC electrodes that are operably coupled with the RF driver electrodes and the tuning electrodes. Each tuning electrode is driven with an RF signal whose amplitude and phase is independently controllable. By controlling the amplitudes of the RF signals applied to the tuning electrodes, the height of the trapping location above the mirror is controlled. The position of the tuning location along two orthogonal lateral directions is controlled by controlling a plurality of DC voltages applied to the plurality of DC electrode pads.

Abstract: The disclosure describes various aspects of a software-defined quantum computer. For example, a software-defined quantum computing architecture for allocating qubits is described that includes an application programming interface (API); a quantum operating system (OS) on which the API executes, with the quantum OS including a resource manager and a switch; and a plurality of quantum cores connected by the switch of the quantum resource OS. Moreover, the resource manager of the quantum resource OS determines an allocation of a plurality of qubits in the plurality of quantum cores.

Abstract: The disclosure describes various aspects of techniques for elliptical beam design using cylindrical optics that may be used in different applications, including in quantum information processing (QIP) systems. In an aspect, the disclosure describes an optical system having a first optical component having a first focal length, a second optical component having a second focal length and aligned with a first direction, and a third optical component having a third focal length and aligned with a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The optical system is configured to receive one or more optical beams (e.g., circular or elliptical) and apply different magnifications in the first direction and the second direction to the one or more optical beams to image one or more elliptical Gaussian optical beams. A method for generating elliptical optical beams using a system as the one described above is also disclosed.

Abstract: A multiscale imaging system including microcameras having controllable focus, dynamic range, exposure, and magnification is disclosed. The objective lens forms a three-dimensional image field of a scene. Image regions of the image field are relayed by the microcameras onto their respective focal-plane arrays, which collectively provide a plurality of digital sub-images of the scene. The digital sub-images can then be used to form a composite digital image of the scene that can have enhanced depth-of-field, enhanced dynamic range, parallax views of the scene, or three-dimensionality.
