We present an experimental proof-of-principle for the generation and detection of pure two-qubit states that have been encoded in degrees of freedom that are common to both classical-light beams and single photons. Our protocol requires performing polarization tomography on a single qubit from a qubit pair. The degree of entanglement in the qubit pair is measured by concurrence, which can be directly extracted from intensity measurements-or photon counting-entering single-qubit polarization tomography.

Article Synopsis
  • Concurrence is an important measure in quantum theory that quantifies the degree of entanglement between qubits, and local unitary invariants can effectively describe quantum states' properties.
  • This paper proposes using local unitary invariants with advanced statistical methods (like multiple regression and neural networks) to predict concurrence in 2-qubit quantum states, which can be more efficient than traditional quantum state tomography.
  • The study achieves a high prediction accuracy of 98.5% for concurrence across various two-qubit quantum states by deriving a functional formula based on the correlation of data from pure states and Werner states.

Quantum control techniques are one of the most efficient tools for attaining high-fidelity quantum operations and a convenient approach for quantum sensing and quantum noise spectroscopy. In this work, we investigate dynamical decoupling while processing an entangling two-qubit gate based on an Ising-xx interaction, each qubit affected by pure dephasing classical correlated 1/f-noises. To evaluate the gate error, we used the Magnus expansion introducing generalized filter functions that describe decoupling while processing and allow us to derive an approximate analytic expression as a hierarchy of nested integrals of noise cumulants.

Towards Two Bloch Sphere Representation of Pure Two-Qubit States and Unitaries.

We extend Bloch sphere formalism to pure two-qubit systems. Combining insights from Geometric Algebra and the analysis of entanglement in different conjugate bases we identify two Bloch sphere geometry that is suitable for representing maximally entangled states. It turns out that the relative direction of the coordinate axes of the two Bloch spheres may be used to describe the states.

High-fidelity spin qubit operation and algorithmic initialization above 1 K.

The encoding of qubits in semiconductor spin carriers has been recognized as a promising approach to a commercial quantum computer that can be lithographically produced and integrated at scale. However, the operation of the large number of qubits required for advantageous quantum applications will produce a thermal load exceeding the available cooling power of cryostats at millikelvin temperatures. As the scale-up accelerates, it becomes imperative to establish fault-tolerant operation above 1 K, at which the cooling power is orders of magnitude higher.

Qubit gate operations in elliptically trapped polariton condensates.

Key Laboratory for Quantum Materials of Zhejiang Province, School of Science, Westlake University, Hangzhou, 310024, China.

We consider bosonic condensates of exciton-polaritons optically confined in elliptical traps. A superposition of two non-degenerated p-type states of the condensate oriented along the two main axes of the trap is represented by a point on a Bloch sphere, being considered as an optically tunable qubit. We describe a set of universal single-qubit gates resulting in a controllable shift of the Bloch vector by means of an auxiliary laser beam.
