Architectural considerations in the design of a third-generation superconducting quantum annealing processor
Kelly Boothby, Colin Enderud, Trevor Lanting +46
Early generations of superconducting quantum annealing processors have provided a valuable platform for studying the performance of a scalable quantum computing technology. These s…
Quantum annealing simulation of out-of-equilibrium magnetization in a spin-chain compound
Andrew D. King, Cristian D. Batista, Jack Raymond +5
Geometrically frustrated spin-chain compounds such as Ca3Co2O6 exhibit extremely slow relaxation under a changing magnetic field. Consequently, both low-temperature laboratory expe…
Simulating the Shastry-Sutherland Ising Model using Quantum Annealing
Paul Kairys, Andrew D. King, Isil Ozfidan +4
Frustration represents an essential feature in the behavior of magnetic materials when constraints on the microscopic Hamiltonian cannot be satisfied simultaneously. This gives ris…
Scaling advantage in quantum simulation of geometrically frustrated magnets
Andrew D. King, Jack Raymond, Trevor Lanting +51
The promise of quantum computing lies in harnessing programmable quantum devices for practical applications such as efficient simulation of quantum materials and condensed matter s…
Demonstration of nonstoquastic Hamiltonian in coupled superconducting flux qubits
I. Ozfidan, C. Deng, A. Y. Smirnov +45
Quantum annealing (QA) is a heuristic algorithm for finding low-energy configurations of a system, with applications in optimization, machine learning, and quantum simulation. Up t…
Observation of topological phenomena in a programmable lattice of 1,800 qubits
Andrew D. King, Juan Carrasquilla, Isil Ozfidan +20
The celebrated work of Berezinskii, Kosterlitz and Thouless in the 1970s revealed exotic phases of matter governed by topological properties of low-dimensional materials such as th…
OpenFermion: The Electronic Structure Package for Quantum Computers
Jarrod R. McClean, Kevin J. Sung, Ian D. Kivlichan +32
Quantum simulation of chemistry and materials is predicted to be an important application for both near-term and fault-tolerant quantum devices. However, at present, developing and…
Quantum Annealing amid Local Ruggedness and Global Frustration
James King, Sheir Yarkoni, Jack Raymond +5
A recent Google study [Phys. Rev. X, 6:031015 (2016)] compared a D-Wave 2X quantum processing unit (QPU) to two classical Monte Carlo algorithms: simulated annealing (SA) and quant…
Time-Resolved Imaging of Negative Differential Resistance on the Atomic Scale
Mohammad Rashidi, Marco Taucer, Isil Ozfidan +6
Negative differential resistance remains an attractive but elusive functionality, so far only finding niche applications. Atom scale entities have shown promising properties, but v…
Gapless helical superconductivity on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator
