Qubit decoherence in a nuclear magnetic resonance-like quantum processor with trapped particles
No full textTrapped electrons in vacuum for a scalable quantum processor
Full text linkWe describe in detail a theoretical scheme to trap and manipulate an arbitrary number of electrons in vacuum for universal quantum computation. The particles are confined in a linear array of Penning traps by means of a combination of static electric and magnetic fields. Two-electron operations are realized by controlling the Coulomb interaction between neighboring particles. The performances of such a device are evaluated in terms of clock speed, fidelity, and decoherence rates
Spin chains with electrons in Penning traps
Full text linkWe demonstrate that spin chains are experimentally feasible using electrons confined in micro-Penning traps, supplemented with local magnetic field gradients. The resulting Heisenberg-like system is characterized by coupling strengths showing a dipolar decay. These spin chains can be used as a channel for short-distance quantum communication. Our scheme offers high accuracy in reproducing an effective spin chain with relatively large transmission rate
Spin chains with trapped electrons
No full textWe propose to use a linear array of singly trapped electrons to implement a spin chain for quantum communication. The effective spin-spin interaction is realized by means of a magnetic field gradient, which couples the electron spin to the motional degrees of freedom. Then the Coulomb repulsion between the particles transmits this coupling throughout the array. The resulting system can be described in terms of a Heisenberg model with long-range interactions showing a dipolar decay. We estimate the fidelity of the system in reproducing an ideal spin chain by taking into account the influence of the electron spatial motion
