US 2021/0279628 A1 · TRANSPORT-BASED QUBIT-ARRAY LOADING

Abstract

When a molecule is lost from a site of a qubit array, the site can be identified as a “target” site. A target site can be reloaded by transporting a molecule from a reservoir at least two millimeters to the target site. Alternatively, in response to the identifying, a molecule that has been transferred from the reservoir to a qubit-array region including the qubit array can be transferred to the target site. Quantum-logic language (QLL) programs can continue qubit operations on the array during transfers from the reservoir to the qubit region. Such operations can also continue during transfer from within the qubit region to a target site; in some cases, these latter operations are limited to sections of the qubit array not including a target site.

Dependent claims

A qubit-array system comprising:

a qubit array trap including a qubit-site array of qubit sites and configured to trap cold molecules in respective ones of the qubit sites so as to define a qubit array, the qubit-array trap being located in a qubit-array region;
a reservoir trap located outside the qubit-array region and configured to trap a molecules;
a site identifier configured to identify a proper target subset of a set of qubit sites in the qubit-site array, the target subset including one or more target sites;
and
a transport module configured to, in response to the identifying:
transport molecules at least two millimeters from the reservoir trap to a target site, or
transport a molecule that has been transported from the reservoir trap into the qubit-array region to a respective one of the target sites.
