QUBIT LEAKAGE REMOVAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18305174 Titled 'QUBIT LEAKAGE REMOVAL'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes methods, systems, and apparatus for transferring data qubit leakage in quantum computing. It explains that an apparatus is used to transport leakage from a data qubit, which holds logical information, to an ancilla qubit. This is achieved by preparing the ancilla qubit in a known initial state and performing a leakage transport operation using two-qubit gates on both qubits.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems and apparatus for transporting data qubit leakage. In one aspect, an apparatus includes, for a data qubit that has been operated on by a quantum computing system to place the data qubit in a first state, wherein the first state encodes logical information: preparing, by the quantum computing system, an ancilla qubit in a known initial state; and performing, by the quantum computing system, a leakage transport operation using one or more two-qubit gates on the data qubit and the ancilla qubit to transfer leakage from the data qubit to the ancilla qubit.
