TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quantum computers, in particular to a digital modulation module, a measurement and control system and a quantum computer. BACKGROUND
[0002] In quantum computing, quantum bit circuits, transmission lines of measurement and control systems connected thereto, and the like are abnormally sensitive to environmental noise, especially thermal noise, electromagnetic noise and signal noise. The usual method of suppressing thermal noise is to place the quantum chip in a large dilution refrigerator, attach it to the cooling source through a gold-plated copper plate, and reduce the environmental temperature to about 10mK, and maintain excellent thermal contact to remove the heat generated by the quantum chip during operation at any time. The method of suppressing electromagnetic noise is to design a multi-layer complex shielding packaging device around the quantum bit circuit, on the one hand to shield the environmental electromagnetic noise from interfering with the operation of the quantum chip, and on the other hand to shield the crosstalk between different components in the quantum bit circuit.
[0003] The solution to signal noise is more troublesome, not only does it need to reduce the noise of the quantum computer control system as much as possible, but also needs to add multi-stage noise reduction components to the signal lines of the quantum chip, and also needs to consider the additional radiation, noise, thermal power and the like caused by the noise reduction components. It is not easy to reduce the noise of the quantum computer control system, even if all the devices are ideal, the signal fluctuations caused by the Johnson-Nyquist noise (referred to as thermal fluctuation noise) caused by blackbody radiation will enter the quantum chip along with the signal.
[0004] In order to reduce the input of noise, if all the quantum bit state control circuits, quantum bit frequency control circuits, quantum bit state control output circuits, and quantum bit state control feedback input control circuits outside the quantum bit circuit are directly set in the refrigeration equipment, the above-mentioned quantum bit state control circuits and quantum bit state control output circuits all include circuits that need to be modulated, and the existing modulation circuits are not suitable for use in refrigeration equipment.

[0102] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this application. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0103] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0104] To reduce interference from the measurement and control system to the input signal of the quantum processor 60, this application discloses a digital modulation module, which is installed in a cooling device and includes:
[0105] A digital signal generation module is configured to output at least one set of digital signals with a preset frequency;
[0106] A multiplexer configured to select one set of digital signals generated by the digital signal generation module for output;
[0107] The calibrator 116 is configured to calibrate the digital signal selected by the multiplexer as the output signal of the digital modulation module.
[0108] The digital modulation module specifically includes the following five embodiments:
[0109] Example 1
[0110] like Figure 1 As shown: In this application, the digital signal generation module includes:
[0111] A digitally controlled oscillator 111 is configured to output two digital signals with a preset frequency. In this embodiment, the digitally controlled oscillator 111 includes a variable-mode counter and a lookup table. The variable-mode counter calculates the address required by the lookup table to retrieve data from an external memory module based on a frequency control word. The lookup table outputs two orthogonal digital signals with a preset frequency based on the corresponding phase-continuous addresses.
[0112] Phase modulator 112 is configured to output two digital signals with a preset frequency; specifically, in the phase modulator 112 of this embodiment, the two digital signals are respectively added to the phase information by corresponding adders to output two phase-modulated digital signals.
[0113] An amplitude modulator 113 is configured to modulate the amplitude of two phase-modulated digital signals according to the amplitude information. Specifically, in the amplitude modulator 113, the first and second digital signals after phase modulation are multiplied by the amplitude information by corresponding multipliers to finally obtain two digital signals with both amplitude and phase modulation.
[0114] The digitally controlled oscillator 111 generates the frequency and phase shift required by the quantum processor 60, reducing the number of multipliers and adders, significantly lowering power consumption. Furthermore, the digitally controlled oscillator 111 can determine the phase of the qubits, thereby achieving coherent operation. Compared to directly using SRAM to store all modulated waveform files, this reduces the requirements for external memory modules and is more suitable for low-temperature environments. The phase modulator 112 and amplitude modulator 113 can satisfy the pulse variability of the qubits. In this embodiment, the phase modulation is 10 bits, and the envelope modulation is 8 bits.
[0115] In this embodiment, the multiplexer is a first multiplexer 115. The input of the first multiplexer 115 is used to receive two digital signals after amplitude and phase modulation, as well as the amplitude information. The output of the first multiplexer 115 is used to output either the two digital signals or the amplitude information. Using the first multiplexer 115, a 2-to-1 selection between digital signals and amplitude information can be achieved. When digital signals are selected, the digital signals pass through a digital-to-analog converter module and a signal processing module, and the output is used as one input to the quantum processor 60 as a qubit state control signal, and the other input to the quantum processor 60 as a measurement signal. The measurement signal can optionally not use the amplitude and phase information functions in this scheme. When the amplitude information is selected as a DC signal, the amplitude information is converted into an analog amplitude signal by a digital-to-analog converter. The analog amplitude signal can be used as another input to the quantum processor 60 for qubit state control without going through a signal processing module. This signal meets the requirements of special gate processing operations in the quantum controller, such as performing qubit frequency adjustment by a single-qubit gate or a two-qubit gate. It should be noted that the amplitude modulator 113 can be an arbitrary waveform generator, and the use of the first multiplexer 115 can be used to detect whether the envelope signal generated by the arbitrary waveform generator meets the requirements.
[0116] The calibrator 116 is configured to calibrate the two digital signals output from the first multiplexer 115. Since the electronic components of the IQ modulator, which serves as the signal processing module at the back end of the digital modulation module, are not perfectly ideal, the amplitude and phase of the two input digital signals may become unbalanced and / or generate DC offset. This imbalance produces image components, and the offset affects the accuracy of the signal. Therefore, this application sets up the calibrator 116 to calibrate the two digital signals. For example, when the calibrator 116 calibrates the signal through image suppression, it is configured with setting parameters for the current state. As another example, when the calibrator 116 calibrates the signal by calibrating DC offset, it can correct DC imbalance and remove unwanted sideband tones. Specifically, it can obtain the DC offset value between the two digital signals. By obtaining the offset value multiple times, the calibrator 116 sets a calibration value, thereby achieving DC offset calibration.
[0117] The number of digital modulation modules can be multiple, for example, the same as the number of qubits, so that frequency signals for multiple qubits can be generated at the same time, thus having rich frequency multiplexing scalability.
[0118] Example 2
[0119] like Figure 2 As shown, the difference from Example 1 is that amplitude modulation is performed first, followed by phase modulation. The detailed process will not be described in detail.
[0120] Example 3
[0121] like Figure 3 As shown, the digital modulation module includes:
[0122] A digital signal generator 121 for modulation is configured to output a digital signal having a preset frequency;
[0123] The first sine / cosine lookup table 114 is configured to determine the sine / cosine function value of the corresponding frequency based on the preset frequency of the digital signal generated by the modulation digital signal generator 121, and output two digital signals corresponding to the sine / cosine function value. The sine / cosine lookup table retrieves data from the external memory module. Each time the modulation digital signal generator 121 sends a lookup address to the first sine / cosine lookup table 114, the sine / cosine lookup table checks whether the corresponding sine or cosine value is stored at the current lookup address in the external memory module. If the corresponding sine or cosine value is stored, the table outputs the stored current sine and current cosine values to form two digital signals of the preset frequency, respectively. If the corresponding sine or cosine value is not stored, the table calculates the corresponding sine or cosine value based on the periodicity of the sine or cosine value, and outputs the calculated current sine and current cosine values to form two digital signals of the preset frequency, respectively.
[0124] The phase modulator 112 and amplitude modulator 113 are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0125] The combined effect of the modulation digital signal generator 121 and the first sine and cosine lookup table 114 is the same as that of the digitally controlled oscillator 111 in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0126] The functions and roles of the multiplexer and calibrator 116 are the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
[0127] The number of digital modulation modules can be multiple, for example, the same as the number of qubits, so that frequency signals for multiple qubits can be generated at the same time, thus having rich frequency multiplexing scalability.
[0128] Example 4
[0129] like Figure 4 As shown, the difference from Example 3 is that amplitude modulation is performed first, followed by phase modulation. The detailed process will not be described in detail.
[0130] Example 5
[0131] like Figure 5 As shown, the digital signal generation module includes multiple digitally controlled oscillators 111, which output multiple sets of digital signals with preset frequencies. In the example, the number of oscillators is consistent with the number of qubits, so that frequency signals for multiple qubits can be generated at the same time, thus providing rich frequency multiplexing scalability. The multiplexer is a second multiplexer 125, which selects one set of digital signals with preset frequencies for output. In this embodiment, the multiplexer selects N*1, where N is the number of input channels and 1 is the number of output channels. The digital modulation module also includes a second sine / cosine lookup table 124, which is configured to determine the sine / cosine function value of the corresponding frequency based on the frequency of the selected set of digital signals with preset frequencies, and output two digital signals corresponding to the sine / cosine function values. The two digital signals are input to the calibrator 116 to calibrate the output. The calibrator 116 has the same effect as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0132] The digital modulation modules in the above five embodiments can all be used in a measurement and control system that is installed in a refrigeration device, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the measurement and control system includes components all connected to the quantum processor 60:

Depending on the different solutions, the measurement and control system is integrated on one or more substrates using CMOS technology.
