First Embodiment


FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view illustrating a computing device according to the first embodiment.



FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view illustrating a part of the computing device according to the first embodiment.


As shown in FIG. 1, a computing device 110 according to the embodiment includes an element section 10E. In this example, the computing device 110 further includes a first conductive portion 41, a second conductive portion 42, a first coupling conductive portion 61, and a controller 70.


The element section 10E includes a first structure 11, a second structure 12, and a first coupling structure 21. The first structure 11 includes a first cavity resonator 11H having a first resonance frequency, a first other cavity resonator 11L having a first other resonance frequency, and a first coupler 11C. The first coupler 11C is configured to couple the first cavity resonator 11H and the first other cavity resonator 11L. The first other resonance frequency is lower than the first resonance frequency. The first structure 11 is a resonator pair including two cavity resonators.


The second structure 12 includes a second cavity resonator 12H having a second resonance frequency, a second other cavity resonator 12L having a second other resonance frequency, and a second coupler 12C. The second coupler 12C is configured to couple the second cavity resonator 12H and the second other cavity resonator 12L. The second other resonance frequency is lower than the second resonance frequency. The second structure 12 is another resonator pair including two cavity resonators.


The first coupling structure 21 is configured to couple the first structure 11 and the second structure 12. In this example, the first other cavity resonator 11L is provided between the first cavity resonator 11H and the first coupling structure 21. The second cavity resonator 12H is provided between the first coupling structure 21 and the second other cavity resonator 12L. The first coupling structure 21 is provided between the first other cavity resonator 11L and the second cavity resonator 12H.


For example, the first coupling structure 21 is configured to be coupled to the first other cavity resonator 11L and the second cavity resonator 12H.


The controller 70 is configured to supply a first AC signal Sa1 including an AC component to the first conductive portion 41. The controller 70 is configured to supply a second AC signal Sa2 including an AC component to the second conductive portion 42. A first magnetic field (AC magnetic field) generated from the first conductive portion 41 in response to the first AC signal Sa1 is applied to the first coupler 11C. A second magnetic field (AC magnetic field) generated from the second conductive portion 42 in response to the second AC signal Sa2 is applied to the second coupler 12C. In one example, the first conductive portion 41 and the second conductive portion 42 are coils. The first conductive portion 41 and the second conductive portion 42 may be any conductive member to which a current can be supplied. The conductive member may be provided, for example, on a member (base) on which the coupling structure is provided. The coil may be provided away from a member (base) on which the coupling structure is provided.


The controller 70 is configured to supply a first DC pulse signal Sd1 to the first coupling conductive portion 61. The first coupling magnetic field generated from the first coupling conductive portion 61 is applied to the first coupling structure 21 in response to the first DC pulse signal Sd1.


For example, one of the first cavity resonator 11H and the first other cavity resonator 11L is in a single photon state. The other of the first cavity resonator 11H and the first other cavity resonator 11L is in a zero-photon state (For example, “vacuum state”). For example, a state in which the first cavity resonator 11H is in a single-photon state and the first other cavity resonator 11L is in a vacuum state corresponds to one of “0” and “1 ” (e.g., “0”). For example, a state in which the first cavity resonator 11H is in a vacuum state and the first other cavity resonator 11L is in a single-photon state corresponds to one of “0” and “1” (e.g., “1”). A state other than the above two states corresponds to an error state. The presence of photons in one of the resonators represents a qubit. The first structure 11 functions as a qubit.


Similarly, for example, one of the second cavity resonator 12H and the second other cavity resonator 12L is in a single photon state. The other of the second cavity resonator 12H and the second other cavity resonator 12L is in a zero-photon state (For example, “vacuum state”). The presence of photons in one of the resonators represents a qubit. The second structure 12 functions as another qubit.


As described above, in the embodiment, an alternating magnetic field is applied to the first coupler 11C. Thereby, the state of the first structure 11 (qubit) can be controlled. An alternating magnetic field is applied to the second coupler 12C. Thereby, the state of the second structure 12 (qubit) can be controlled. That is, a one-qubit gate operation is performed.


As described above, in the embodiment, a DC pulse magnetic field is applied to the first coupling structure 21. Thereby, two-qubit gates are executed on the first structure 11 (qubit) and the second structure 12 (qubit).


In embodiments, for example, a qubit gate operation can be easily performed. The qubit gate operation can be performed at high speed. It is easy to scale up. According to the embodiment, a computing device capable of improving characteristics can be provided.


The first coupler 11C, the second coupler 12C, and the first coupling structure 21 are, for example, a frequency-tunable transmon coupler.


In the embodiment, cavity resonators are used. The cavity resonator is, for example, a three-dimensional superconducting microwave resonator. In the cavity resonator, the coherence time is long. Two cavity resonators (resonator pairs) are used as a qubit. A qubit is represented by whether there is one photon in one of the two cavity resonators. The one-qubit gate operation can be performed by controlling an alternating magnetic field (alternating magnetic flux) to a frequency-tunable transmon coupler that couples two cavity resonators of a resonator pair (modulation of the frequency of the transmon). A plurality of qubits are coupled by a frequency-tunable transmon coupler. For example, by controlling the DC magnetic field (DC magnetic flux) (changing the transmon frequency) for a frequency-tunable transmon coupler that couples two cavity resonators belonging to different qubits (resonator pairs), a two-qubit gate operation can be executed.


In the embodiment, the controller 70 is configured to control the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the first structure 11 can be executed. The controller 70 is configured to control the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the second structure 12 can be performed.


For example, the controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1 to a value based on the first resonance frequency and the first other resonance frequency. For example, the controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2 to a value based on the second resonance frequency and the second other resonance frequency.


In one example, the controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1 to a first difference between the first resonance frequency and the first other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the first structure 11 can be performed. The controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2 to a second difference between the second resonance frequency and the second other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the second structure 12 can be performed. For example, the controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1 to a value of not less than 0.5 times and not more than 2 times the first difference. For example, the controller 70 may set the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2 to a value of not less than 0.5 times and not more than 2 times the second difference.


In another example, the controller 70 is configured to set the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1 to a first sum of the first resonance frequency and the first other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the first structure 11 can be performed. The controller 70 is configured to set the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2 to a second sum of the second resonance frequency and the second other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the second structure 12 can be performed.


In another example, the controller 70 is configured to set the frequency of the AC component of the first AC signal Sa1 to a first value between twice the first resonance frequency and twice the first other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the first structure 11 can be performed. The controller 70 is configured to set the frequency of the AC component of the second AC signal Sa2 to a second value between twice the second resonance frequency and twice the second other resonance frequency. Thereby, the one-qubit gate operation in the second structure 12 can be executed.


For example, a first state is before the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied to the first coupling conductive portion 61. In a second state, the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied to the first coupling conductive portion 61.


For example, a difference between a first state resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 in the first state and a first other resonance frequency is larger than a difference between a second state resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 in the second state and a first other resonance frequency.


For example, before the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 is greatly detuned from the first other resonance frequency. When the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 approaches the first other resonance frequency. After the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 is largely detuned from the first other resonance frequency and returned to its original state.


For example, a difference between the first state resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 in the first state and the second resonance frequency is larger than a difference between the second state resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 in the second state and the second resonance frequency.


For example, before the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 is greatly detuned from the second resonance frequency. When the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 approaches the second resonance frequency. After the first DC pulse signal Sd1 is supplied, the resonance frequency of the first coupling structure 21 is largely detuned from the second resonance frequency and returned to its original state. Such an operation executes a two-qubit gate operation. The two-qubit gate operation by such an operation is based on, for example, a ZZ coupling (See, e.g., H. Goto, Physical Review Applied 18, 034038 (2022)).
