SYSTEMS AND DEVICES FOR QUANTUM PROCESSOR TOPOLOGY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338584 titled 'SYSTEMS AND DEVICES FOR QUANTUM PROCESSOR TOPOLOGY

The abstract of the patent application describes topologies for analog processors that involve cells containing qubits and couplers, which may be shared or extend across multiple cells. Each cell may consist of four sets of partial qubits that can form whole qubits with partial qubits in adjacent cells. The first and second sets of partial qubits extend parallel to each other along a first direction, while the third and fourth sets extend parallel to each other along a second direction. Each partial qubit in the first and second sets may cross, and be orthogonal to, at least one partial qubit from each of the third and fourth sets. Additionally, a cell may include intra-cell couplers and partial couplers that form inter-cell couplers with adjacent cells.

  • Cells in analog processors contain qubits and couplers
  • Qubits and couplers can be shared or extend across multiple cells
  • Each cell consists of four sets of partial qubits
  • Partial qubits in adjacent cells can form whole qubits
  • Sets of partial qubits extend parallel to each other in different directions
  • Cells include intra-cell and inter-cell couplers

Original Abstract Submitted

topologies for analog processors may include cells comprising at least portions of qubits and couplers. qubits and couplers may be shared among or extend across multiple cells. a cell may include four sets of partial qubits, and partial qubits may form whole qubits with partial qubits in adjacent cells. first and second sets of partial qubits may include partial qubits that extend substantially parallel to one another and along a first direction. third and fourth sets may include partial qubits that extend substantially parallel to one another and along a second direction. each partial qubit in the first and second sets may cross, and be substantially orthogonal to, at least one partial qubit from each of the third and fourth sets. a cell may include first and second sets of intra-cell couplers, and partial couplers that form inter-cell couplers with partial couplers in adjacent cells.
