IQP Seminar: Photon-atom gates, and atom-mediated, fault-tolerant photonic quantum computing

by Dr Barak Dayan (Weizmann)

Wednesday 8 May 2024, 13:30 → 15:00 Europe/Berlin

ZOQ and/or Zoom

Abstract: The photonic approach is the only technology originally designed to achieve the massive scaling required for fault-tolerant universal quantum computation (over a million physical qubits). In my talk, I will describe the photonic approach, which combines topological error correction and measurement-based quantum computation in a modular and scalable manner. I will then explain how cavity-QED-based photon-atom gates with single atoms can dramatically simplify this effort, address its main bottleneck, and enhance its scaling to even larger numbers of physical qubits.
