The non-adiabatic geometric quantum computation (NGQC) has attracted a lot of attention for noise-resilient quantum control. However, previous implementations of NGQC require long evolutionpaths that make them more vulnerable to incoherent errors than their dynamical this http URL this work, we experimentally realize a universal short-path non-adiabatic geometric gate set (SPNGQC) with a 2-times shorter evolution path on a superconducting quantum processor. Characterizing with both quantum process tomography and randomized benchmarking methods, we report an average single-qubit gate fidelity of 99.86% and a two-qubit gate fidelity of 97.9%. Additionally, we demonstrate superior robustness of single-qubit SP-NGQC gate to Rabi frequency error in some certain parameter space by comparing their performance to those of the dynamical gates and the former NGQC gates.
Measurement for qubits plays a key role in quantum computation. Current methods for classifying states of single qubit in a superconducting multi-qubit system produce fidelities lowerthan expected due to the existence of crosstalk, especially in case of frequency crowding. Here, We make the digital signal processing (DSP) system used in measurement into a shallow neural network and train it to be an optimal classifier to reduce the impact of crosstalk. The experiment result shows the crosstalk-induced readout error deceased by 100% after a 3-second optimization applied on the 6-qubit superconducting quantum chip.
We report on Floquet spectroscopy in a cavity-coupled double quantum dot system. By applying microwave induced consecutive passages, we observe Landau-Zener-Stückelberg-Majorana fringeswhich are split by holes with the shape of crescents. We demonstrate that these crescents represent a universal feature that stems from a depletion of the predominantly occupied Floquet state at avoided crossings of the Floquet spectrum. The emergence of crescents can be controlled electrically via drive frequency and amplitude, which is perfectly consistent with the simulations based on our theoretical model. These results provide insight to the nonequilibrium population of Floquet states.
