Spinchainbased full quantum computation by accessing only two spins

چکیده
We apply quantum control techniques to a long spin chain by acting only on two qubits at one of its ends, thereby implementing universal quantum computation by a combination of quantum gates on these qubits and indirect SWAP operations across the chain. It is shown that the control sequences can be computed and implemented efficiently.We discuss the application of these ideas to physical systems such as superconducting qubits in which full control of long chains is challenging.

Geometric quantum computation
We describe in detail a general strategy for implementing a conditional geometric phase between two spins. Combined with single-spin operations, this simple operation is a universal gate for quantum computation, in that any unitary transformation can be implemented with arbitrary precision using only single-spin operations and conditional phase shifts. Thus quantum geometrical phases can form t...
متن کاملUniversal quantum computation using exchange interactions and measurements of single- and two-spin observables
We show how to construct a universal set of quantum logic gates using control over exchange interactions and singleand two-spin measurements only. Single-spin unitary operations are teleported between neighboring spins instead of being executed directly, thus potentially eliminating a major difficulty in the construction of several of the most promising proposals for solid-state quantum computa...
متن کاملFew-body spin couplings and their implications for universal quantum computation
Electron spins in semiconductor quantum dots are promising candidates for the experimental realization of solid-state qubits. We analyse the dynamics of a system of three qubits arranged in a linear geometry and a system of four qubits arranged in a square geometry. Calculations are performed for several quantum dot confining potentials. In the three-qubit case, three-body effects are identifie...
متن کاملOn the experimental violation of Mermin's inequality with imperfect measurements
We investigate theoretically the feasibility of an experimental test of the Bell-type inequality derived by Mermin for correlated spins larger than 1/2. Using the Schwinger representation, we link the output fields of two two-mode squeezers in order to create correlated effective spins between two observers. Spin measurements will be performed by photon-number-resolved photodetection, which has...
متن کاملDesign of Gates for Quantum Computation: the Three-spin Xor Gate in Terms of Two-spin Interactions
We propose to design multispin quantum gates in which the input and output two-state systems (spins) are not necessarily identical. We describe the motivations for such studies and then derive an explicit general two-spin interaction Hamiltonian which accomplishes the quantum XOR gate function for a system of three spins: two input and one output.
