The present invention relates generally to the field of quantum computing, and more particularly, to a quantum computing device and method including qubit arrays of entangled atomic states using negative refractive index lenses. In addition, a three-dimensional architecture is provided.
Quantum information processing covers a variety of fields where quantum mechanical effects are used to process information in applications such as computation and communications.
Quantum computation involves manipulation of data in the form of quantum bits or "qubits." In contrast to classical computation, where a bit of information is used to represent only one of two possible logic states, namely a "1" or a "0," in quantum computation, a qubit can represent both logical states simultaneously as a superposition of quantum states. This property gives rise to powerful computational parallelism. Algorithms that exploit this parallelism have been developed, e.g., for efficiently factorizing large composite integers.
Since the concept and advantages of quantum computing were introduced in the 1990's, a large number of concepts for qubits have been proposed and tried with limited success. Proposed concepts have included systems based on moving quasi-particles around lattices, semiconductor-based systems having quantum wells and optical-resonator-based systems. The development of quantum computing brings about a need for physical qubits that are easily entangled, but individually addressable and initializable.
A generally recognized problem is that quantum computation, and indeed any system involving sensitive information processing, requires a quiet electromagnetic environment to operate. If the system interacts with the environment, it may lose coherence and quantum parallelism may be destroyed.
According to the present invention, a quantum computing system includes qubits that can be controlled and entangled with minimum interaction with external sources. The quantum computing system includes qubits that include at least a pair of atoms and a negative index lens disposed between the pair of atoms. Negative index metamaterials and perfect lenses may be used to provide entanglement in neutral atoms.
One aspect of the disclosed technology relates to a quantum computing system comprising a plurality of qubits. Each qubit includes a pair of atoms and a negative index lens disposed between the pair of atoms. The quantum computing system further comprises: control circuitry operatively connected to the negative index lenses, the control circuitry being operable to switch the negative index lenses between a negative index state and a positive index state; atomic state reading circuitry configured to determine atomic spin states of the atoms; and an excitation source configured to excite the atoms.
According to another aspect, the negative index lens is arranged to entangle states of the pair of atoms.
According to another aspect, each qubit further includes a second negative index lens disposed adjacent to one of the pair of atoms and a third atom disposed adjacent to the second negative index lens.
According to another aspect, a qubit array includes a plurality of qubits.
According to another aspect, the plurality of qubits is arranged in a two-dimensional architecture.
According to another aspect, the plurality of qubits is arranged in a three-dimensional architecture.
Another aspect of the disclosed technology relates to a quantum computing method that includes disposing pairs of neutral atoms on opposite sides of negative index lenses, selectively exciting the atoms using an excitation source, selectively energizing and de-energizing the negative index lenses using control circuitry operatively connected to said negative index lenses, the selectively energizing and de-energizing causing the negative index lenses to switch between a positive index state and a negative index state respectively, thereby facilitating entanglement of states of the atoms, and determining the state of at least one of the neutral atoms using atomic state reading circuitry.
According to another aspect, the control circuitry is operatively coupled to the excitation source, and the control circuitry and the excitation source cooperate to entangle the qubits.
To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, the invention comprises the features hereinafter fully described and particularly pointed out in the claims. The following description and the annexed drawings set forth in detail certain illustrative embodiments of the invention. These embodiments are indicative, however, of but a few of the various ways in which the principles of the invention may be employed. Other objects, advantages and novel features of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the invention when considered in conjunction with the drawings.
Features that are described and/or illustrated with respect to one embodiment may be used in the same way or in a similar way in one or more other embodiments and/or in combination with or instead of the features of the other embodiments.
In the detailed description that follows, like components have been given the same reference numerals regardless of whether they are shown in different embodiments of the present invention. To illustrate the present invention in a clear and concise manner, the drawings may not necessarily be to scale and certain features may be shown in somewhat schematic form.
One aspect of the disclosed technology includes a quantum computing device having quantum bits ("qubits") that can be controlled and entangled with minimum interaction with external sources. As is described in more detail below, the quantum computing device makes use of a negative index material ("NIM") to construct a negative index lens. The negative index lens is disposed between pairs of neutral atoms to provide entanglement or otherwise controllably couple the neutral atom qubits.
Aspects of the invention are operational with numerous other general purpose or special purpose computing system environments or configurations. Examples of such computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for use with aspects of the invention include, but are not limited to, personal computers, server computers, hand held or laptop devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set top boxes, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, distributed computing environments that include any suitable system component or device, and the like.
With reference to
In the illustrated embodiment, conventional memory 14 may be representative of the overall hierarchy of memory devices containing software and data used to implement the functionality of the computer 10. The memory may include, for example, RAM or other volatile solid-state memory, and/or other nonvolatile solid-state memory, a magnetic storage medium such as a hard disc drive, a removable storage medium or other suitable storage media. As illustrated, the memory 14 may store drivers 20, e.g., I/O device drivers, application programs 22, an operating system 24 and application program data 26.
In addition, user input interface(s) 30 may couple a variety of user input devices 32, e.g., a mouse, a keyboard, a microphone, a gamepad or the like, to the processing unit 12 via the bus 18. In addition, a display such as a monitor 34 or other suitable display device may be connected to the system bus 18 via an interface, such as a video interface. In addition to the monitor, the computer may also include other peripheral output devices, which may be connected through an output peripheral interface 38.

In a preferred embodiment, the negative lens is comprised of a negative index material ("NIM"), thereby being constructed as a NIM "perfect lens." One example of a suitable perfect lens, as well as a description of the operative properties, may be found in
Further, the distance between the two focal points of the negative index lens is d(1 - n), where n is the refractive index of the negative index lens. It will be appreciated that the thickness d of the negative index lens will depend on a variety of factors, including, the negative index material from which the negative index lens is constructed, e.g., the index of refraction associated with the given negative index material, the types of atoms used in the qubit and the like.
In a preferred embodiment, the negative index lens 52 is constructed from a suitable negative index material, e.g., a metamaterial. It will be appreciated that metamaterials are understood to include materials or objects that gain (electromagnetic) material properties from their structure rather than inheriting then directly from the material of which it is composed. Metamaterials often are associated with material properties not found in naturally-formed substances.
In a preferred embodiment, the qubit 50 will include or otherwise make use of neutral cesium (Cs) atoms. One advantage associated with the use of Cesium atoms stems from the fact that the Cs atom has a pair of states that are separated by a transition energy equivalent to a 9.2 GHz (GigaHertz) photon. Of course, each qubit may include or otherwise make use of other atoms, e.g., other neutral atoms, alkaline atoms, exotic atoms and the like. Nonlimiting examples of suitable atoms include hydrogen, rubidium and positronium.

At functional block 105, the negative index lenses are activated or otherwise energized, for example, using a suitable lens control source, such as an array of lasers and mirrors positioned to controllably and selectively activate or deactivate the negative index lenses and mirrors.
At functional block 110, the negative index lenses are deactivated or otherwise returned to their negative index material properties thereby entangling the states of the qubits within the qubit array. At functional block 115, the qubits or atoms within the qubit array may be probed or otherwise interrogated to determine their current state, e.g., a spin-up state, a spin-down state, or some superposition of a spin-up state and a spin-down state.
Stated more simply, operation of the qubit array disclosed herein includes placing the atoms within the qubit array within a set of states, e.g., in accordance with a predetermined programming algorithm, using selective activation of the negative index lenses to initiate a type of quantum evolutionary calculation, and probing or interrogating atoms within the qubit array after a certain amount of time to obtain a result.
