This paper proposes a residual network (ResNet)-based convolutional neural network (CNN) model to improve multi-qubit state measurements using an electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD). The CNN model is developed to simultaneously use the intensity of pixel values and the shape of ion images in determining the quantum states of ions. In contrast, conventional methods use only the intensity values. In our experiments, the proposed model achieved a 99.53±0.14% mean individual measurement fidelity (MIMF) of 4 trapped ions, reducing the error by 46% when compared to the MIMF of maximum likelihood estimation method of 99.13±0.08%. In addition, it is experimentally shown that the model is also robust against the ion image drift, which was tested by intentionally shifting the ion images.

Practical quantum networks will require multi-qubit quantum nodes. This in turn will increase the complexity of the photonic circuits needed to control each qubit and require strategies to multiplex memories. Integrated photonics operating at visible to near-infrared (VNIR) wavelength range can provide solutions to these needs.

Quantum computation holds the promise of solving computational problems which are believed to be classically intractable. However, in practice, quantum devices are still limited by their relatively short coherence times and imperfect circuit-hardware mapping. In this work, we present the parallelization of pre-calibrated pulses at the hardware level as an easy-to-implement strategy to optimize quantum gates.

Optical atomic clocks, the current state of the art in frequency precision, are a rapidly emerging area of focus for entanglement-enhanced metrology. Augmenting tweezer-based clocks featuring microscopic control and detection with the high-fidelity entangling gates developed for atom-array information processing offers a promising route towards making use of highly entangled quantum states for improved optical clocks.

Characterizing the interactions and dynamics of quantum mechanical systems is an essential task in developing quantum technologies. We propose an efficient protocol based on the estimation of the time-derivatives of few qubit observables using polynomial interpolation for characterizing the underlying Hamiltonian dynamics and Markovian noise of a multi-qubit device. For finite range dynamics, our protocol exponentially relaxes the necessary time-resolution of the measurements and quadratically reduces the overall sample complexity compared to previous approaches.
