Reducing Parasitic Interactions in a Qubit Grid - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18195876 Titled 'Reducing Parasitic Interactions in a Qubit Grid'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method, system, and apparatus for performing an entangling operation on a system of qubits. The system of qubits consists of first qubits and second qubits, which are connected through qubit couplers. The qubits are arranged in a two-dimensional grid. The method involves pairing multiple first qubits with neighboring second qubits and performing an entangling operation on each paired qubit. This operation includes detuning each second qubit in parallel with its corresponding first qubit.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and apparatus for performing an entangling operation on a system of qubits. In one aspect, a method includes operating the system of qubits, wherein the system of qubits comprises: a plurality of first qubits, a plurality of second qubits, a plurality of qubit couplers defining nearest neighbor interactions between the first qubits and second qubits, wherein the system of qubits is arranged as a two dimensional grid and each qubit of the multiple first qubits is coupled to multiple second qubits through respective qubit couplers, and wherein operating the system of qubits comprises: pairing multiple first qubits with respective neighboring second qubits; performing an entangling operation on each paired first and second qubit in parallel, comprising detuning each second qubit in the paired first and second qubits in parallel.
