High Fidelity Universal Gates Performed On A Continuously-Decoupled Coherence Enhanced Transmon Qubit, Michael Senatore Nov 2022

High Fidelity Universal Gates Performed On A Continuously-Decoupled Coherence Enhanced Transmon Qubit, Michael Senatore

Decoherence is the primary limiting factor for the utility of modern qubits and qubit networks; most chiefly, pure dephasing which limits the operational time any gate-sequence can produce a high-fidelity result. In this dissertation, I present the results of my experiment, performing fast, high fidelity, universal single-qubit gates, on a qubit which has been decoupled from pure dephasing resulting from environmental noise. This technique can expand operational ranges of qubits–such as allowing the high-coherence operation of a flux-tunable qubit far away from its flux-insensitive sweet-spot; broadening our selection of viable qubits by making otherwise low-coherence qubits operable with high coherence, …


Quantum Computational Simulations For Condensed Matter Systems, Trevor Alan Keen Aug 2022

Quantum Computational Simulations For Condensed Matter Systems, Trevor Alan Keen

Doctoral Dissertations

In condensed matter physics, and especially in the study of strongly correlated electron systems, numerical simulation techniques are crucial to determine the properties of the system including interesting phases of matter that arise from electron-electron interactions. Many of these interesting phases of matter, including but not limited to Mott-insulating materials and possibly high-temperature superconducting systems, can be modeled by the Hubbard model. Although it is one of the simplest models to include electron-electron interactions, it cannot be solved analytically in more than one dimension and thus numerical techniques must be employed. Although there have been great strides in classical numerical …
