Empirical determination of dynamical decoupling operations

چکیده
Strong and fast ‘‘bang-bang’’ ~BB! pulses have been recently proposed as a means for reducing decoherence in a quantum system. So far theoretical analysis of the BB technique relied on model Hamiltonians. Here we introduce a method for empirically determining the set of required BB pulses, that relies on quantum process tomography. In this manner an experimenter may tailor his or her BB pulses to the quantum system at hand, without having to assume a model Hamiltonian. In addition, the previous work has been extended to a general noiseless evolution via the stabilizer formalism.

Protected quantum computing: interleaving gate operations with dynamical decoupling sequences.
Implementing precise operations on quantum systems is one of the biggest challenges for building quantum devices in a noisy environment. Dynamical decoupling attenuates the destructive effect of the environmental noise, but so far, it has been used primarily in the context of quantum memories. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a general scheme for combining dynamical decoupling with quantum l...
متن کاملOptimal characteristics determination of engine mounting system using TRA mode decoupling with emphasis on frequency responses
It is possible to improve vehicle vibration by tuning the parameters of engine mounting system. By optimization of mount characteristics or finding the optimal position of mounts, vibration of the engine and transmitted force from the engine to the chassis can be reduced. This paper examines the optimization of 6-degree-of-freedom engine mounting system based on torque roll axis (TRA) mode deco...
متن کاملRigorous bounds on the performance of a hybrid dynamical-decoupling quantum-computing scheme
We study dynamical decoupling in a multiqubit setting, where it is combined with quantum logic gates. This is illustrated in terms of computation using Heisenberg interactions only, where global decoupling pulses commute with the computation. We derive a rigorous error bound on the trace distance or fidelity between the desired computational state and the actual time-evolved state, for a system...
متن کاملDistinguishing decoherence from alternative quantum theories by dynamical decoupling
A long standing challenge in the foundations of quantum mechanics is the verification of alternative collapse theories despite their mathematical similarity to decoherence. To this end, we suggest a novel method based on dynamical decoupling. Experimental observation of non-zero saturation of the decoupling error in the limit of fast decoupling operations can provide evidence for alternative qu...
متن کاملCoherent control of quantum dynamics with sequences of unitary phase-kick pulses.
Coherent-optical-control schemes exploit the coherence of laser pulses to change the phases of interfering dynamical pathways and manipulate dynamical processes. These active control methods are closely related to dynamical decoupling techniques, popularized in the field of quantum information. Inspired by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, dynamical decoupling methods apply sequences of ...
