Fast multiqubit gates through simultaneous two-qubit gates

X Gu, J Fernández-Pendás, P Vikstål, T Abad… - PRX Quantum, 2021 - APS
Near-term quantum computers are limited by the decoherence of qubits to only being able to
run low-depth quantum circuits with acceptable fidelity. This severely restricts what quantum …

NOON states of nine quantized vibrations in two radial modes of a trapped ion

J Zhang, M Um, D Lv, JN Zhang, LM Duan, K Kim - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We develop a deterministic method to generate and verify arbitrarily high NOON states of
quantized vibrations (phonons), through the coupling to the internal state. We experimentally …
