| Outline of Research at the Start |
In analogy to the bits in modern computers, 'qubits' are the fundamental building block of quantum computers. In this research, we look for ways to improve the measurement of qubits made from superconducting circuits. This contributes to the development of more powerful quantum technologies that can benefit society.
|
| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Our research has focused on advancing fast, high-fidelity readout in superconducting quantum computers. Achievements include designing and patenting a novel ‘Purcell’ filter, integrating the design into the superconducting circuit architecture being pursued at RIKEN, and demonstrating state-of-the-art high-fidelity readout surpassing previous benchmarks. Our readout results pave the way for effective implementation of quantum error correction in the superconducting circuits under development at RIKEN.

Current Status of Research Progress
1: Research has progressed more than it was originally planned.
Reason
At the current stage, I have designed and measured a device that sets a new record for performing accurate readout using superconducting qubits. Myself and the coauthors are writing a manuscript about this device which we plan to submit to an APS journal such as Physical Review Applied. The device features a new design of ‘Purcel filter’ that protects the qubit from losing its energy through the measurement line. We have filed a patent application for this design. I have also developed theoretical results along with coauthor Shuhei Tamate on the behavior of periodic quantum circuits at large-scale. We aim to prepare a manuscript on these results.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
The current plan is as follows:
-Finish measuring the current device and demonstrate state-of-the-art readout performance. Submit a manuscript based on these measurements.
-Write a separate manuscript based on modelling the behavior of periodic quantum circuits at large-scale.
-Contribute to a collaboration with University of Oxford researchers on improved superconducting qubit readout state discrimination using a novel machine-learning approach.
I anticipate it will be possible to compete this plan before the end of the JSPS fellowship on 21st November 2024.
