Original Abstract Submitted
a computing system including a quantum computing device. the quantum computing device includes a majorana island at which majorana zero modes (mzms) are instantiated. the quantum computing device further includes a quantum dot electrically connectable to an mzm, a capacitance sensor capacitively coupled to the quantum dot, and a controller. the controller is configured to set a majorana island gate voltage of the majorana island and a quantum dot gate voltage of the quantum dot to a candidate resonance majorana island voltage and a candidate resonance quantum dot voltage. the controller is further configured to receive a capacitance measurement of the quantum dot and the majorana island and determine whether resonance occurs based on the capacitance measurement. the controller is further configured to reset the gate voltages. the controller is further configured to output a quasiparticle poisoning value indicated by the one or more determinations of whether resonance occurs.
