[0001] This specification relates to the field of quantum computing technology, and in particular to a coupling control method, device, equipment and medium for Xmon-type superconducting qubits. Background Technology

[0002] As transistor chips shrink to near their limits, the computational performance of classical computers is also reaching its peak. Quantum computing, as a potential alternative to existing classical computers, has been extensively studied in its principles and related algorithms since the last century. In mathematical problems such as large prime number factorization and global search, quantum computing offers a fundamental speed advantage. Scientists have now established different quantum systems and implemented some simple quantum algorithms, among which superconducting quantum computing is the most promising.

[0003] In quantum computing systems, achieving high-fidelity single-qubit gates and two-qubit CZ gates is of paramount importance. In superconducting quantum computing systems, single-qubit gates in existing Xmon designs have already achieved fidelity exceeding 99.5%, meeting the requirements of many quantum algorithms. However, in existing multi-qubit systems, direct coupling between adjacent qubits easily leads to ZZ crosstalk and magnetic flux noise, thus affecting the fidelity of CZ gates in multi-qubit systems.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a coupling control method for Xmon-type superconducting qubits with improved fidelity. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This specification provides one or more embodiments of a coupling control method, apparatus, device, and medium for Xmon-type superconducting qubits, which addresses the following technical problem: how to provide a coupling control method for Xmon-type superconducting qubits that can improve fidelity.

[0006] One or more embodiments of this specification employ the following technical solutions:

[0020] If the frequency of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit is between the first cavity mode frequency and the second cavity mode frequency, and the first cavity mode frequency is adjusted to the preset frequency value, then the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit is turned off.

[0021] If the frequency of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit is between the first cavity mode frequency and the second cavity mode frequency, and the first cavity mode frequency is not at the preset frequency value, then the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit is activated.

[0029] Based on each of the relationships in the aforementioned relationships, control parameters that meet the requirements are determined through a preset maximization function, and a parameter model containing the relationships between multiple sets of control parameters and the fidelity is established based on the control parameters that meet the requirements.

[0030] Based on the set of relationships and the parameter model, candidate optimal control parameters are obtained from the multiple sets of control parameters;

[0031] If the fidelity corresponding to the candidate optimal control parameter is greater than the fidelity of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit at the current time, then the control parameters of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit are adjusted according to the candidate optimal control parameter.

[0038] This specification provides one or more embodiments of a coupling control device for Xmon-type superconducting qubits, comprising:

[0052] With the aid of a half-wavelength superconducting cavity coupler, the distance between two Xmon-type superconducting qubits can be relatively large, resulting in weaker direct coupling between them. This effectively suppresses ZZ crosstalk-type crosstalk between the qubits. Furthermore, by adjusting the frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting qubits using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQU), the superconducting cavity maintains a high quality factor during qubit gate operations. This allows for the control of interactions between Xmon-type superconducting qubits through indirect coupling via the half-wavelength superconducting cavity without needing to adjust the Xmon qubits themselves.

[0061] This specification provides a coupling control method, apparatus, device, and medium for Xmon-type superconducting qubits.

[0062] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this specification will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this specification, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this specification, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this specification.

[0063] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this specification provides a flowchart illustrating a coupling control method for Xmon-type superconducting qubits. The method includes the following steps:

[0064] S101: The two ends of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity are capacitively coupled to Xmon-type superconducting qubits, and a superconducting quantum interference device is embedded in the middle of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity; wherein the distance between the Xmon-type superconducting qubits is greater than a preset threshold, so that the direct coupling between the Xmon-type superconducting qubits is lower than a preset influence value.

[0065] The fidelity of two-qubit gate operations is crucial for quantum error correction and large-scale unified quantum computing. Currently, the main factors affecting the fidelity of two-qubit gate operations are magnetic flux noise between Xmon-type superconducting qubits and ZZcrosstalk-type crosstalk. Since the main source term of ZZcrosstalk-type crosstalk is proportional to the square of the direct coupling between the two Xmon-type superconducting qubits, reducing the direct coupling strength between the qubits is essential for improving the fidelity of two-qubit gate operations. Therefore, to reduce the direct coupling between the two Xmon-type superconducting qubits, such as... Figure 2 As shown, capacitive coupling is achieved by connecting the two ends of the half-wave superconducting cavity to two Xmon-type superconducting qubits based on capacitors, and as... Figure 3The diagram shows a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) embedded in the middle of a half-wavelength superconducting cavity. This allows the cavity to achieve indirect coupling between two qubits directly through frequency detuning of the cavity mode and the qubits, regulated by the SQUID. Simultaneously, it's understood that because the distance between the two Xmon qubits is greater than a preset threshold, the direct coupling between Xmon-type superconducting qubits is below a preset influence value, and can be ignored. This reduces the ZZ crosstalk type crosstalk between qubits caused by direct coupling. It should be noted that the superconducting quantum interference device is a direct-current superconducting quantum interference device (dc-SQUID).

[0066] As mentioned above, the main factors affecting the fidelity of two-qubit gate operations are ZZ crosstalk type crosstalk and magnetic flux noise between Xmon qubits. Therefore, in order to reduce the magnetic flux noise between two-qubit gate operations, in one or more embodiments of this specification, the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) has a DC bias line. After embedding the SQUID into the middle position of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity, the method further includes the following step: reducing the magnetic flux noise of the Xmon superconducting qubit by adjusting the distance between the DC bias line and the Xmon superconducting qubit to be greater than a preset distance. For example, adjusting the distance between the DC bias line of the DC-SQUID inductor and the Xmon superconducting qubit to be greater than 2 mm reduces the impact of magnetic flux noise on the Xmon superconducting qubit.

[0067] S102: Obtain the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit through a readout cavity connected to each Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit.

[0068] To avoid the problem of indirect coupling and gate operation failure caused by abnormal connections when two Xmon-type superconducting qubits are indirectly coupled at both ends of a half-wavelength superconducting cavity, the method further includes the following steps before obtaining the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting qubit in one or more embodiments of this specification:

[0069] First, the transmission coefficients of the feeder of the Xmon-type superconducting qubit are obtained when it is at high and low power. Then, based on the obtained transmission coefficients, it is determined whether the Xmon-type superconducting qubit causes a shift in the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity, and if the shift direction is the same as the detuning direction. If it causes a shift in the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity, and the shift direction is the same as the detuning direction, then the Xmon-type superconducting qubit is in a normal state. If it causes no shift in the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity, or if the shift direction is inconsistent with the detuning direction, then the Xmon-type superconducting qubit is in an abnormal state. It can be understood that abnormal states of the Xmon-type superconducting qubit can include short circuits, open circuits, etc. After testing that two Xmon-type superconducting qubits are in a normal state, in one or more embodiments of this specification, the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting qubit is obtained through a readout cavity connected to each Xmon-type superconducting qubit. The frequency acquisition process is not limited here.

[0070] S103: Adjust the frequency of the tunable cavity mode of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity according to the preset magnetic flux applied to the superconducting quantum interference device.

[0071] In one or more embodiments of this specification, adjusting the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity according to the preset magnetic flux applied to the superconducting quantum interference device specifically includes the following steps:

[0072] First, by adjusting the current in the DC bias line within the superconducting quantum interference device (SQU), the magnetic flux of the SQU is varied to obtain a preset applied magnetic flux. Then, one of the cavity mode frequencies of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity is controlled to vary according to the preset magnetic flux to obtain the first cavity mode frequency, while the other cavity mode frequency remains constant to obtain the second cavity mode frequency. That is, as follows... Figure 4 As shown, one set of cavity mode frequencies, such as ω3, ω5, and ω7, are controlled to change with magnetic flux, while the other set of cavity mode frequencies, such as ω2, ω4, and ω6, remain fixed and do not change with magnetic flux. It should be noted that the coupler, composed of a superconducting quantum interference device (SQU) and a half-wavelength superconducting cavity, uses only two cavity membranes close to the frequencies of the Xmon-type superconducting qubits. One cavity membrane has an adjustable frequency corresponding to the first cavity mode frequency, while the other has a non-adjustable frequency corresponding to the second cavity mode frequency. One cavity membrane frequency is above the frequencies of the two superconducting qubits, and the other is below the frequencies of the two qubits. The frequency detuning of other cavity membranes with the Xmon qubits is significant, but its impact is negligible.

[0073] S104: By adjusting the frequency difference between the tunable cavity mode of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity and the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit, the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bits is controlled to achieve coupling or disconnection between the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bits.

[0074] To avoid the noise effects caused by the direct coupling of Xmon-type superconducting qubits, in the above steps of the embodiments of this specification, a half-wavelength superconducting cavity is added to increase the distance between the two qubits, thereby making the coupling between them very weak. The coupling between the two qubits is an indirect coupling induced by the two modes of the superconducting cavity. In one or more embodiments of this specification, the indirect coupling of Xmon-type superconducting qubits is controlled based on the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity and the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting qubit, specifically including the following steps:

[0075] First, based on the first and second cavity mode frequencies within the half-wavelength superconducting cavity, indirect coupling between adjacent Xmon-type superconducting qubits is induced. The cavity mode frequency at which the coupling terms have opposite signs and the difference in coupling strength is less than a preset threshold is taken as the preset frequency value. If the frequency of the Xmon-type superconducting qubit falls between the first and second cavity mode frequencies, and the second cavity mode frequency is adjusted to the preset frequency value, then the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting qubit is closed. It should be noted that when the frequencies of the two qubits are between the two cavity membranes, the signs of the indirect coupling induced by the two cavity membranes will be opposite. However, when the second cavity mode frequency reaches the preset frequency value, i.e., reaches a specific point, the indirect coupling terms induced by the two cavity modes of the two Xmon-type superconducting qubits are of the same magnitude but opposite in direction, thus closing the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting qubits. If the frequency of an Xmon-type superconducting qubit lies between the first and second cavity mode frequencies, and the second cavity mode frequency is not at the preset frequency value, then the inter-qubit coupling will be enabled, thus activating the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting qubit. This allows for simultaneous operation between two qubit gates. Compared to traditional single-cavity coupling control methods, the coupling of a dual-cavity half-wavelength superconducting cavity is easier to adjust, resulting in a higher quality factor during qubit gate operation. Furthermore, the half-wavelength superconducting cavity allows for a greater distance between two Xmon-type superconducting qubits, thus weakening the direct coupling and effectively reducing ZZ crosstalk-type crosstalk between them.

[0076] To further improve the coupling of the qubit gate, in one or more embodiments of this specification, the indirect coupling of the Xmon-type superconducting qubits is controlled according to the cavity mode frequency of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity and the frequency of each Xmon-type superconducting qubit. After achieving coupling or disconnection between the Xmon-type superconducting qubits, the method further includes the following steps:

[0077] First, measurement data corresponding to different quantum states of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit are obtained, along with the corresponding control parameters. It should be noted that the control parameters include at least the first cavity mode frequency, the second cavity mode frequency, and a preset frequency value. The quantum states include |0> states and |1> states. Then, the fidelity of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit is determined based on the corresponding measurement data. Further, based on the relationship between the fidelity and the control parameters, a set of correlation relationships containing multiple sets of relationships between the control parameters and the fidelity is obtained. Based on each correlation relationship, a preset maximization function is used to determine the required control parameters, and a parameter model containing the correlation relationships between multiple sets of control parameters and the fidelity is established based on these required control parameters. For example, using a preset algorithm, each correlation relationship in the correlation relationship set is used as input to the algorithm. By running the algorithm, multiple sets of required control parameters and their corresponding fidelities are obtained, and the correlation relationships between these multiple sets of required control parameters and their corresponding fidelities are stored in the parameter model.

[0078] Then, based on the correlation set and parameter model, candidate optimal control parameters are obtained from multiple sets of control parameters. For example, the control parameters in the correlation set and the qualified control parameters in the parameter model are used as inputs to a preset learning model to obtain candidate control parameters from multiple sets of control parameters. If the fidelity corresponding to the selected candidate optimal control parameter is greater than the fidelity of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit at the current moment, then the control parameters of the Xmon-type superconducting quantum bit are adjusted according to the candidate optimal control parameter, thereby further improving the fidelity of the quantum bit.

[0080] A module 501 is established to capacitively couple the two ends of a half-wavelength superconducting cavity to Xmon-type superconducting qubits, and to embed a superconducting quantum interference device (QFID) into the middle position of the half-wavelength superconducting cavity; wherein the distance between the Xmon-type superconducting qubits is greater than a preset threshold so that the direct coupling between the Xmon-type superconducting qubits is lower than a preset influence value.
