    Extensible Technology for a Medium-Scale Superconducting Quantum Processor

    Summary

     

    Superconducting quantum bits, or qubits, use circuits made from superconducting materials to harness quantum mechanical states. These devices contain many atoms, but can behave as simple, controllable qubits. We are building technologies for the control and measurement of superconducting qubits to enable the first demonstration of an extensible, medium-scale quantum processor. Our approach includes the development of multilayer architectures where qubit and wiring circuitry are fabricated on different chips that are bonded together by means of thermocompression bonding technologies. This will make it possible to address qubits on a two-dimensional lattice on the order of 100 qubits. Implementing a two-dimensional array of superconducting qubits will allow for the realization of quantum-error correction, a critical step on the way to a fully scalable architecture. Through this work we also hope to study the loss mechanisms that limit the coherence time of superconducting qubits.

    Cryo-CMOS to Control and Operate 2D Fault-Tolerant Qubit Network

    Summary   Large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computation requires precise and stable control of individual qubits. This project will use complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology to provide a cost-effective scalable platform for reliable and high-density control infrastructure for silicon spin qubits. We will use sub-micron CMOS technology to address device and circuit-level challenges and explore the integration of […]

    Novel Infrared Camera Based on Quantum Sensors for Biomedical Applications

    Summary  In this project we develop a novel infrared camera with low noise and high detection efficiency for biomedical applications of optical coherence tomography (OCT) using quantum materials. OCT is a technique used to image the back of the eye and allow for the diagnosis of detrimental eye conditions, for e.g., macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy […]

    Quantum State Tomography with Machine Learning

    Summary   An important challenge in building a quantum computer is quantifying the level of control obtained in the preparation of a quantum state. The state of a quantum device is characterized from experimental measurements, using a procedure known as tomography. Exact tomography requires a vast amount of computer resources, making it prohibitive for quantum […]

    Quantum Sensing with Small Quantum Systems

    Summary   There are small quantum systems over which we have very good control and which have long lifetimes. Examples include the phosphorous (P) defect in silicon (Si) and the nitrogen vacancy (NV) defect in diamond. With P defect in Si, we focus on improving our understanding of the hyperpolarization mechanism to better enable engineering of […]
