LVC - 3rd Generation Quantum Computer with 2 Logical Qubits
FY 2024-25 · 2025-02-17
Summary
Achieving fault-tolerance through brute-force error correction schemes is expected to require a superconducting quantum processor with millions of physical qubits. While recent experiments have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of error-correction in principle, the hardware overhead seems prohibitive for a commercially relevant machine. In this project, the firm will introduce an alternative pathway to achieve fault-tolerance with superconducting qubits that has the potential to significantly reduce the error-correction overhead.

Description
Achieving fault-tolerance through brute-force error correction schemes is expected to require a superconducting quantum processor with millions of physical qubits. While recent experiments have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of error-correction in principle, the hardware overhead seems prohibitive for a commercially relevant machine. In this project, the firm will introduce an alternative pathway to achieve fault-tolerance with superconducting qubits that has the potential to significantly reduce the error-correction overhead.
Description (French)
La réalisation de la tolérance aux pannes par des schémas de correction d’erreur par force brute devrait nécessiter un processeur quantique supraconducteur avec des millions de qubits physiques. Bien que des expériences récentes aient démontré avec succès la faisabilité de la correction d’erreur en principe, la surcharge matérielle semble prohibitive pour une machine commercialement pertinente. Dans ce projet, l’entreprise introduira une voie alternative pour atteindre la tolérance aux pannes avec des qubits supraconducteurs qui a le potentiel de réduire considérablement la surcharge de correction d’erreur.
