Surface code quantum communication
Austin G. Fowler, David S. Wang, Charles D. Hill +3
Quantum communication typically involves a linear chain of repeater stations, each capable of reliable local quantum computation and connected to their nearest neighbors by unrelia…
Graphical algorithms and threshold error rates for the 2d colour code
D. S. Wang, A. G. Fowler, C. D. Hill +1
Recent work on fault-tolerant quantum computation making use of topological error correction shows great potential, with the 2d surface code possessing a threshold error rate appro…
Threshold error rates for the toric and surface codes
D. S. Wang, A. G. Fowler, A. M. Stephens +1
The surface code scheme for quantum computation features a 2d array of nearest-neighbor coupled qubits yet claims a threshold error rate approaching 1% (NJoP 9:199, 2007). This res…
