    Abstract: Systems and methods for a quantum computing include a plurality of photonic processing stages, a plurality of heralding-free connections, and circuitry configured to regulate photon flow between adjacent stages such that decisions about stage settings or flow between adjacent stages are free of input from a previous stage. Each heralding-free connection is located between adjacent photonic processing stages. Each photonic processing stage includes at least two of an optical switch, a beam splitter, a waveguide or a photon generator. Methods include transmitting or receiving a plurality of photons via a plurality of heralding-free connections, and regulating photon flow between adjacent stages such that decisions about stage settings or flow between adjacent stages are free of input from a previous stage.

    Abstract: A quantum computing system, method, and computer readable medium involves initializing a state of a resonator-coupled quantum emitter having at least four levels arranged in an N-configuration, the N-configuration having a first ground state, a second ground state, a first excited state and a second excited state. A frequency of a first transition between the first ground state and the first excited state is tuned, a frequency of a second transition between the second ground state and the second excited state is tuned, and a frequency of a third transition between the second ground state and the first excited state is tuned. A plurality of photons are fed at a frequency corresponding to the frequency of the second transition, thereby entangling the plurality of photons to the resonator-coupled quantum emitter. Likewise, a photon at a frequency corresponding to the frequency of at least one of the first transition or the third transition is fed, thereby mapping a state of the resonator-coupled quantum emitter into a photon.

    Abstract: A quantum computing system, method and computer readable storage medium involve tuning a whispering-gallery mode optical resonator to support a resonance frequency associated with a transition frequency of an atom. Operation of a laser is controlled to cause the atom to be trapped adjacent the optical resonator and within the evanescent field portion. Based on an atom presence signal from an optical atom presence detector, an indication is provided that the atom is trapped adjacent the optical resonator. A frequency of a cooling laser is controlled to cool the atom, and the optical resonator is configured to define a closed loop-like mode including an evanescent field portion. The trapping laser is configured to cause the atom to be trapped adjacent the whispering-gallery mode resonator, and the cooling laser is configured to manipulate a state of the atom to thereby cool the atom.

    Abstract: A quantum computing system, method and computer readable medium involve a vacuum chamber, an atom source input associated with the vacuum chamber, a Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) having an interaction region configured to interact with an atom from the atom source, a coupling location for atom positioning, a trapping laser for trapping the atom in the coupling location, an excitation laser for manipulating an electronic state or a nuclear state of the atom, a waveguide for guiding input light to the coupling location, and an output channel for directing quantum light generated at the coupling location, out of the vacuum chamber as a resource for quantum computing. The coupling location is associated with the PIC, and the interaction region of the PIC is arranged for at least partial exposure to the vacuum.

    Abstract: Generating photonic graph states includes positioning a plurality of quantum emitters at a plurality of coupling sites associated with a plurality of cavities and initializing a state of a quantum emitter qubit associated with each of the plurality of quantum emitters. Photonic qubits are transmitted toward the plurality of the quantum emitters a first instance transmission for generating an entangling gate between the photonic qubits and the quantum emitter qubit in order to entangle the quantum emitter qubit and the photonic qubits. Following the first instance transmission, photonic qubits are transmitted toward the plurality of quantum emitters in a one second instance transmission for generating a SWAP gate between the photonic qubits and the quantum emitter qubits to map the quantum emitter qubits to photonic qubits.
