[0081] (First Embodiment)

[0082] Figure 1 This is a schematic top view illustrating the electronic circuit according to the first embodiment.

[0083] like Figure 1 As shown, the electronic circuit 110 involved in the embodiment includes a first qubit 51B, a second qubit 52B, a first coupler 10A, a first readout conductive component 21, and a first filter 31F.

[0084] The first coupler 10A includes a first resonator 11R and a second resonator 12R. The first resonator 11R is capable of coupling to a first qubit 51B. The second resonator 12R is capable of coupling to a second qubit 52B. For example, the first resonator 11R is capable of electromagnetic coupling to the first qubit 51B. For example, the second resonator 12R is capable of electromagnetic coupling to the second qubit 52B. Electromagnetic coupling includes, for example, capacitive coupling. Electromagnetic coupling includes, for example, inductive coupling. The first coupler 10A is, for example, a tunable coupler.

[0085] The first filter 31F includes a first filter section 31P, a first other filter section 31Q, and a first readout section 31R. The first filter section 31P can be coupled to the first resonator 11R. The first other filter section 31Q can be coupled to the second resonator 12R. The first readout section 31R can be coupled to the first readout conductive component 21. The first filter 31F can be, for example, a Purcell filter.

[0086] In this embodiment, the state of the qubit is read out by the first readout conductive member 21 via the first filter 31F. Thus, for example, it is possible to arrange qubits and couplers at a high density.

[0087] For example, in the first reference example, the state of the qubit is read out via a readout resonator. In the first reference example, the area of ​​the readout resonator is large, requiring space. Therefore, it is difficult to arrange multiple qubits at a high density.

[0088] In contrast, in this embodiment, the resonator included in the first coupler 10A is coupled to the first filter 31F. The state of the qubit is read out via the coupler and the first filter 31F. In this embodiment, the readout resonator can be omitted. Space saving is achieved. High-density qubits can be obtained. According to this embodiment, electronic circuitry that improves performance can be provided.

[0089] like Figure 1 As shown, in this example, the first filter 31F includes a first conductive component 41 and a second conductive component 42. The first conductive component 41 includes a first conductive portion 41p and a first other conductive portion 41q. The second conductive component 42 includes a second conductive portion 42p and a second other conductive portion 42q. The first conductive portion 41p can be coupled to the first resonator 11R. The second conductive portion 42p can be coupled to the second resonator 12R. The first other conductive portion 41q can be coupled to the first readout conductive component 21. The second other conductive portion 42q can be coupled to the first readout conductive component 21.

[0090] The first conductive portion 41p corresponds to the first filter portion 31P. The second conductive portion 42p corresponds to the first other filter portion 31Q. At least one of the first other conductive portion 41q and the second other conductive portion 42q corresponds to the first readout portion 31R.

[0091] The first qubit 51B, the second qubit 52B, the first coupler 10A, the first readout conductive component 21, and the first filter 31F can, for example, be formed by a conductive layer 85 disposed on the first surface 81F of the first substrate 81. As will be described later, at least a portion of the conductive layer 85 can also be disposed on different substrates.

[0092] like Figure 1 As shown, the first coupler 10A includes a first coupler Josephson junction 11K. One end of the first coupler Josephson junction 11K is connected to the first resonator 11R. The other end of the first coupler Josephson junction 11K is connected to the second resonator 12R.

[0093] The first resonator 11R includes a first inductor 11L. The second resonator 12R includes a second inductor 12L. In this example, the first resonator Josephson junction 11J is used as the first inductor 11L. In this example, the second resonator Josephson junction 12J is used as the second inductor 12L.

[0094] The first resonator 11R is, for example, a first transmon resonator. The second resonator 12R is, for example, a second transmon resonator. The first coupler 10A is, for example, a dual transmon coupler.

[0095] A first resonator conductive section 11a is provided, which is connected to the first inductor 11L (the first resonator Josephson junction 11J). A second resonator conductive section 12a is provided, which is connected to the second inductor 12L (the second resonator Josephson junction 12J).

[0096] The first filter portion 31P of the first filter 31F can be coupled to the first resonator conductor 11a. The first other filter portion 31Q of the first filter 31F can be coupled to the second resonator conductor 12a. The first resonator conductor 11a and the first inductor 11L (the first resonator Josephson junction 11J) are contained in the first resonator 11R. The second resonator conductor 12a and the second inductor 12L (the second resonator Josephson junction 12J) are contained in the second resonator 12R.

[0097] like Figure 1 As shown, the first qubit 51B includes a first Josephson junction 51J and a first conductive portion 51a. The first conductive portion 51a is connected to the first Josephson junction 51J. The second qubit 52B includes a second Josephson junction 52J and a second conductive portion 52a. The second conductive portion 52a is connected to the second Josephson junction 52J.

[0098] The first conductive part 51a can be coupled to the first resonator conductive part 11a. The second conductive part 52a can be coupled to the second resonator conductive part 12a.

[0099] A ground conductive layer 85G based on the conductive layer 85 can be provided. The ground conductive layer 85G is set to a ground potential GND (e.g., a reference potential). For example, the ground conductive layer 85G can be provided around the conductive layer 85, which serves as the first qubit 51B, the second qubit 52B, the first coupler 10A, the first readout conductive member 21, and the first filter 31F.

[0100] like Figure 1As shown, a readout circuit 70R can be provided. For example, the readout circuit 70R can be included in the electronic circuit 110. The readout circuit 70R can also be provided separately from the electronic circuit 110. The readout circuit 70R is electrically connected to the first readout conductive member 21. The readout circuit 70R can detect the state of the first qubit 51B and the state of the second qubit 52B based on the signal obtained from the first readout conductive member 21. For example, the readout circuit 70R detects the output signal based on the input signal input to the first readout conductive member 21. Thus, the state of the first qubit 51B and the state of the second qubit 52B can be detected. The readout circuit 70R outputs an output signal Sig1 including the detection result.

[0101] Figure 2 This is a circuit diagram illustrating the electronic circuit according to the first embodiment.

[0102] like Figure 2 As shown, the first resonator 11R includes a first inductor 11L and a first capacitor 11C. The first capacitor 11C is connected in parallel with the first inductor 11L. As already explained, in this example, a first resonator Josephson junction 11J is provided as the first inductor 11L. The first capacitor 11C is connected in parallel with the first resonator Josephson junction 11J.

[0103] The second resonator 12R includes a second inductor 12L and a second capacitor 12C. The second capacitor 12C is connected in parallel with the second inductor 12L. As already described, in this example, a second resonator Josephson junction 12J is provided as the second inductor 12L. The second capacitor 12C is connected in parallel with the second resonator Josephson junction 12J.

[0104] The first coupler 10A also includes a first coupler Josephson junction 11K. One end of the first coupler Josephson junction 11K is connected to one end of the first inductor 11L and one end of the first capacitor 11C. The other end of the first coupler Josephson junction 11K is connected to one end of the second inductor 12L and one end of the second capacitor 12C.

[0105] The other end of the first inductor 11L and the other end of the first capacitor 11C are set to ground potential GND. The other end of the second inductor 12L and the other end of the second capacitor 12C are set to ground potential GND.

[0106] The first inductor 11L includes at least one first resonator Josephson junction 11J. The first inductor 11L may also include multiple first resonators Josephson junctions 11J. The second inductor 12L includes at least one second resonator Josephson junction 12J. The second inductor 12L may also include multiple second resonators Josephson junctions 12J.

[0107] The first qubit 51B includes a first Josephson junction 51J and a first capacitor 51C. The first capacitor 51C is connected in parallel with the first Josephson junction 51J. One end of the first Josephson junction 51J and one end of the first capacitor 51C are connected to the first conductor 51a. The first conductor 51a can be coupled to the first resonator conductor 11a. The other ends of the first Josephson junction 51J and the first capacitor 51C are set to ground potential GND.

[0108] The second qubit 52B includes a second Josephson junction 52J and a second capacitor 52C. The second capacitor 52C is connected in parallel with the second Josephson junction 52J. One end of the second Josephson junction 52J and one end of the second capacitor 52C are connected to the second conductor 52a. The second conductor 52a can be coupled to the second resonator conductor 12a. The other ends of the second Josephson junction 52J and the second capacitor 52C are set to ground potential GND.

[0109] Capacitor C1 can be formed by the first conductive part 51a and the first resonator conductive part 11a. Capacitor C2 can be formed by the second conductive part 52a and the second resonator conductive part 12a.

[0110] The first conductive component 41 can be considered, for example, as a parallel-connected LC circuit. The first conductive component 41 corresponds, for example, to the first filter resonator 41f. The second conductive component 42 can be considered, for example, as a parallel-connected LC circuit. The second conductive component 42 corresponds, for example, to the second filter resonator 42f. These LC circuits are waveguide resonators.

[0111] In one example, the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B is approximately 8.3 GHz. The resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B is approximately 9.0 GHz. The resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R is approximately 11.0 GHz. The resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R is approximately 11.7 GHz. The frequencies of the first resonator 11R and the second resonator 12R are different. The resonant frequencies of the first resonator 11R and the second resonator 12R are read out via the first filter 31F. The resonant frequencies of the first qubit 51B and the second qubit 52B are substantially cut off by the first filter 31.

[0112] In one implementation, for example, the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R is higher than the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B. The resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R is higher than the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B.

[0113] like Figure 2As shown, a ring 10LP is provided in the first coupler 10A. The ring 10LP includes a conductive path containing the first coupler Josephson junction 11K, a conductive path containing the first resonator Josephson junction 11J, and a conductive path containing the second resonator Josephson junction 12J. For example, by controlling the magnetic flux Φ within the ring 10LP, the coupling strength between the first qubit 51B and the second qubit 52B can be controlled. The magnetic flux Φ within the ring 10LP can be controlled by the magnetic flux control unit 60 described later.

[0114] For example, the coupling between the first qubit 51B and the second qubit 52B can be substantially cut off. This state is, for example, an idling state. In the idling state, the first resonator 11R can be considered as a resonator strongly coupled to the first qubit 51B. The first resonator 11R can function as a readout resonator. In this implementation, a separately formed readout resonator is not required. This results in a space-saving electronic circuit.

[0115] For example, transducers are used instead of linear resonators as the first filter resonator 41f and the second filter resonator 42f. In this case, the transducer input is sufficiently attenuated. Strong coupling between the first resonator 11R and the first qubit 51B results in a large state-dependent frequency shift. For example, through strong coupling, the state-dependent frequency shift is approximately 30 MHz, enabling readout of the qubit's state.

[0116] For example, with approximately 50% loss in the output signal, a readout error probability of less than 1% can be obtained during a 200ns readout period.

[0117] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the characteristics of the electronic circuit according to the first embodiment.

[0118] Figure 3 The pass characteristics of the first filter 31F are illustrated. Figure 3 The horizontal axis represents the frequency fr1. The vertical axis represents the throughput Tr. As already explained, the first filter 31F may include a first filter resonator 41f and a second filter resonator 42f. Figure 3 The following example illustrates the pass characteristics of the first filter resonator 41f and the second filter resonator 42f. (See example...) Figure 3As shown, the first filter 31F includes a passband 50p, a first non-passband 50r, and a second non-passband 50s. The frequency fr1 of the passband 50p is higher than the frequency fr1 of the first non-passband 50r. The frequency fr1 of the passband 50p is lower than the frequency fr1 of the second non-passband 50s. The non-passbands (e.g., the first non-passband 50r) correspond to the reflection band of the first filter 31F. The passbands of the first filter resonator 41f and the second filter resonator 42f are contained within the passband 50p.

[0119] exist Figure 3 The resonant frequency f10A of the first coupler 10A is illustrated. The resonant frequency f10A of the first coupler 10A includes the resonant frequencies of the first resonator 11R and the second resonator 12R. The passband 50p of the first filter 31F includes the resonant frequencies of the first resonator 11R and the second resonator 12R.

[0120] exist Figure 3 The frequency f50 of the qubit is illustrated. The frequency f50 of the qubit includes the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B. The reflection band of the first filter 31F includes the frequency f50 of the qubit (the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B).

[0121] In this embodiment, the first filter 31F allows the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R in its unloaded state to pass through. The first filter 31F substantially does not allow the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B to pass through. This first filter 31F is coupled to the first readout conductor 21. The first readout conductor 21 functions as a readout line. In this embodiment, high-speed readout is possible. In this embodiment, good qubit coherence time (high gate fidelity) can be obtained.

[0122] In an implementation, for example, the passband of the first filter 31F includes the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R when the first coupling strength is substantially zero.

[0123] In one example, the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R and the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B can be greater than the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R and the resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R. Similarly, the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B can be greater than the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R and the resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R.

[0124] In one example, the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B can be smaller than the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first resonator 11R and the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B. The absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the first qubit 51B and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B can be smaller than the absolute value of the difference between the resonant frequency of the second resonator 12R and the resonant frequency of the second qubit 52B.

[0125] Figure 4 This is a schematic top view illustrating the electronic circuit according to the first embodiment.

[0126] like Figure 4 As shown, the electronic circuit 111 involved in the embodiment includes a first qubit 51B, a second qubit 52B, a first coupler 10A, a first readout conductive component 21, and a first filter 31F. The structure of the first filter 31F in electronic circuit 111 is different from the structure of the first filter 31F in electronic circuit 110. Other than this, the structure in electronic circuit 111 can be the same as the structure of electronic circuit 110.

[0127] In electronic circuit 111, the first filter 31F includes a first conductive component 41, a second conductive component 42, and at least one third conductive component 43. The third conductive component 43 is disposed between the first conductive component 41 and the second conductive component 42. Multiple third conductive components 43 may be provided. In this example, three third conductive components 43 are disposed between the first conductive component 41 and the second conductive component 42. The third conductive component 43 is capable of coupling with both the first conductive component 41 and the second conductive component 42.

[0128] The first conductive component 41 includes a first conductive portion 41p and a first other conductive portion 41q. The first conductive portion 41p is capable of coupling with the first resonator 11R. The second conductive component 42 is capable of coupling with the second resonator 12R. The first other conductive portion 41q is capable of coupling with the first readout conductive component 21. The second conductive component 42 includes a second conductive portion 42p and a second other conductive portion 42q. The second conductive portion 42p is capable of coupling with the second resonator 12R.

[0129] The first conductive portion 41p corresponds to the first filter portion 31P. The second conductive component 42 (the second conductive portion 42p) corresponds to the first other filter portion 31Q. The first other conductive portion 41q corresponds to the first readout portion 31R.

[0130] In the first filter 31F of electronic circuit 111, the steepness of the change in transmittance Tr between the passband 50p and the non-passband can be improved. For example, the readout speed is improved. For example, performance is improved with respect to the coherence time of the qubit (high gate fidelity).

[0131] For example, filter 31F allows the resonant frequencies of the first resonator 11R and the second resonator 12R in the unloaded state to pass. Filter 31F essentially does not allow the frequencies of the qubits to pass over a wide bandwidth. A steep bandpass filter can be obtained.

[0132] Figure 5 This is a schematic top view illustrating the electronic circuit according to the first embodiment.

[0133] like Figure 5 As shown, the electronic circuit 112 involved in the embodiment includes a first qubit 51B, a second qubit 52B, a first coupler 10A, a first readout conductive member 21, and a first filter 31F. The structure of the first filter 31F in electronic circuit 112 is different from the structure of the first filter 31F in electronic circuit 110. Other than this, the structure in electronic circuit 112 can be the same as the structure of electronic circuit 110.

[0134] In electronic circuit 112, the first filter 31F includes a first conductive component 41, a second conductive component 42, and a third conductive component 43.

The third readout section 33R is capable of coupling to the third readout conductive member 23. For example, the readout circuit 70R can be electrically connected to the third readout conductive member 23.

[0182] In electronic circuit 121, the state of the second qubit 52B can be read out via the third coupler 10C and the third filter 33F. The state of the fourth qubit 54B can also be read out via the third coupler 10C and the third filter 33F. This achieves space saving.

[0183] In electronic circuits 120 and 121, "Q" corresponds to a qubit. "T" corresponds to a transonic. "F" corresponds to a filter (e.g., a Purcell filter).

[0184] In electronic circuit 121, the state of the second qubit 52B can be read out through a first set of circuits, a second set of circuits, and a third set of circuits.

[0187] The signal processing unit 70P can compare a first readout value V1 related to a first readout signal Sr1, a second readout value V2 related to a second readout signal Sr2, and a third readout value V3 related to a third readout signal Sr3. The signal processing unit 70P can output a value Sig2, which is the smallest difference between the first readout value V1, the second readout value V2, and the third readout value V3 and the other readout values. For example, a more accurate determination can be made through a majority decision principle.
