    barium benchmarking computation electronics error correction grand challenge hardware open physics & astronomy qudits simulation trapped ions

    Summary

    Trapped ions are one of the most advanced technologies for quantum computing, offering multi-qubit control in a universal quantum computing architecture and the ability to perform calculations with unprecedented precision. In this project we construct a shared trapped-ion quantum computing platform, QuantumIon, that will enable a broader and interdisciplinary scientific community to access an advanced quantum computing platform, thereby accelerating the discovery of new methods and applications of quantum computing.To this end, we build appropriate control electronics, test the suitability of our chosen barium isotope for multi-qubit operations, and construct a 10-qubit processor and benchmark its performance in collaboration with Joseph Emerson. We then demonstrate quantum algorithms from a variety of applications areas: quantum simulation by Rajibul Islam in collaboration with Christine Muschik, quantum error correction in collaboration with Raymond Laflamme, and characterization of multi-level qudits by Crystal Senko in collaboration with Joseph Emerson and Joel Wallman. The QuantumIon will make trapped ion hardware more automated and accessible to users, opening up a range of new experiments from quantum optics to multi-level qudit manipulation to quantum error correction.

    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 […]

    Plasmon Control of Quantum States in Semiconductor Nanocrystals

    Summary   Thanks to the light-induced collective oscillations of free charges at the boundary between a conducting material and a dielectric, known as surface plasmon resonance, metallic nanostructures can exhibit strong light absorption and scattering. The sensitivity of these resonances to the local environment and shape of the metallic structures allows them to be used, […]

    Spin-transfer Torque Magnetic Random Access Memory for On-chip Spin Information Storage

    Summary   Leakage power in semiconductor memories, such as Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) and Static Random Access Memory (SRAM), can be substantial and is one of the limits for scalability of classical electronics. This is attributed to the fact that the information stored is volatile, requiring constant refreshing, as well as reprogramming upon powering […]
