Quantum logic gates by adiabatic passage
2006
International audience; We present adiabatic passage techniques for the realisation of one and two-qubit quantum Gates. These methods use evolution along dark-states of the system, avoiding decoherence effects such as spontaneous emission. The advantage of these methods is their robustness: they are insensitive to the fluctuations of the parameters and to partial knowledge of the system.
COMPLEXITY, NOISE AND QUANTUM INFORMATION ON ATOM CHIPS
2008
The realization of quantum logic gates with neutral atoms on atom chips is investigated, including realistic features, such as noise and actual experimental setups.
Characterisation of Cooper Pair Boxes for Quantum Bits
2001
We have fabricated and measured single Cooper pair boxes (SCB) using superconducting single electron transistors (SET) as electrometers. The box storage performance for Cooper pairs was measured by observing the changes in the SCB island potential. We are also fabricating niobium structures, which are expected to have less problems with quasiparticle contamination than similar aluminium based devices because of the high critical temperature. The use of niobium may also reduce decoherence and thereby increase the time available for quantum logic operations.
Quantum Information by Adiabatic Passage : Quantum Gates and Decoherence
2007
The first part of this thesis is about adiabatic quantum processes designed for the implementation of quantum logic gates, the elementary components of quantumcomputers, by the interaction of pulsed laser fields with atoms. The adiabaticmethods allow robust processes, i.e. which are not sensitive to the fluctuationsof experimental parameters. The processes described in this thesis only requireaccurate control of the polarisations and the relative static phases of thelaser fields. These processes allow the implementation of a universal set ofquantum gates, which make possible the implementation of all the other quantumgates by combinations.The second part of this thesis concerns the effects …
