IonQ has confirmed a significant milestone in the development of high-speed, mixed-species quantum logic gates for trapped-ion quantum computing and networking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Detailed in a new paper written by IonQ scientists and co-authored with Australian National University, Canberra, the research shows a novel approach to achieving an orders-of-magnitude increase in physical gate speed of two-qubit gates between different atomic species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dean Kassmann, SVP of Engineering and Technology, IonQ, said: \u201cDeveloping high-speed, high-fidelity mixed-species gates with fewer errors is essential for building large-scale quantum networks. This research not only drives faster and more efficient entanglement but also lays the foundation for delivering scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IonQ\u2019s research demonstrates a practical method for executing high-speed, mixed species entangling operations, a key step in linking computational qubits across separate quantum processing nodes via photonic connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The research introduces an industry-first approach using ultrafast state-dependent kicks (SDKs) from nanosecond laser pulses, expected to enable quantum logic gates to operate at much faster megahertz (MHz) speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn addition to being an important milestone for quantum computing, achieving high-speed mixed-species quantum gates is also a crucial step toward scalable and modular quantum networks,\u201d said Dr. Ricardo Viteri, Staff Physicist, IonQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis research paves the way for architectures that can more efficiently interconnect and process information.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IonQ has filed for patent protection on the underlying invention. Forthcoming experimental work will determine when and how these techniques may be incorporated into IonQ\u2019s commercial systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
