Optical multiqubit gate operations on an excitation-blockaded atomic quantum register
(2023) In Physical Review Research 5(1).- Abstract
We consider a multiqubit system of atoms or ions with two computational ground states and an interacting excited state in the so-called blockade regime, such that only one qubit can be excited at any one time. Examples of such systems are rare-earth-ion-doped crystals and neutral atoms trapped in tweezer arrays. We present a simple laser excitation protocol that yields a complex phase factor on any desired multiqubit product state, and which can be used to implement multiqubit gates such as the n-bit Toffoli gates. The operation is performed using only two pulses, where each pulse simultaneously address all qubits involved in the operation. By relying on the well-established complex hyperbolic secant pulse shape, our scheme is also... (More)

The operation is performed using only two pulses, where each pulse simultaneously address all qubits involved in the operation. By relying on the well-established complex hyperbolic secant pulse shape, our scheme is also robust and permits complete transfers to and from the excited states despite variations in Rabi frequencies and transition frequencies. A detailed analysis of the multiqubit gate performance is provided.
