Relaxation and Dephasing in a Flux-qubit
P. Bertet, I. Chiorescu, G. Burkard +4
We report detailed measurements of the relaxation and dephasing time in a flux-qubit measured by a switching DC SQUID. We studied their dependence on the two important circuit bias…
Local Fault-tolerant Quantum Computation
Krysta M. Svore, Barbara M. Terhal, David P. DiVincenzo
We analyze and study the effects of locality on the fault-tolerance threshold for quantum computation. We analytically estimate how the threshold will depend on a scale parameter r…
Determination of the tunnel rates through a few-electron quantum dot
R. Hanson, I. T. Vink, D. P. DiVincenzo +4
We demonstrate how rate equations can be employed to find analytical expressions for the sequential tunneling current through a quantum dot as a function of the tunnel rates, for a…
Security Trade-offs in Ancilla-Free Quantum Bit Commitment in the Presence of Superselection Rules
D. P. DiVincenzo, J. A. Smolin, B. M. Terhal
Security trade-offs have been established for one-way bit commitment in quant-ph/0106019. We study this trade-off in two superselection settings. We show that for an `abelian' supe…
Asymmetry and decoherence in a double-layer persistent-current qubit
Guido Burkard, David P. DiVincenzo, P. Bertet +2
Superconducting circuits fabricated using the widely used shadow evaporation technique can contain unintended junctions which change their quantum dynamics. We discuss a supercondu…
Fermionic Linear Optics Revisited
David. P. DiVincenzo, Barbara M. Terhal
We provide an alternative view of the efficient classical simulatibility of fermionic linear optics in terms of Slater determinants. We investigate the generic effects of two-mode…
