Descriptions of quantum algorithms, communication etc. protocols assume the existence of closed quantum system. However, real life quantum systems are open and are highly sensitive to errors. Hence error correction is of utmost importance…
The ultimate goal of quantum error correction is to create logical qubits with very low error rates (e.g. 1e-12) and assemble them into large-scale quantum computers capable of performing many (e.g. billions) of logical gates on many (e.g.…
Stability of ultra-low-voltage SRAM bitcells in retention mode is threatened by two types of uncertainty: process variability and intrinsic noise. While variability dominates the failure probability, noise-induced bit flips in weakened…
Quantum bits (qubits) are prone to several types of errors due to uncontrolled interactions with their environment. Common strategies to correct these errors are based on architectures of qubits involving daunting hardware overheads. A…
The article describes an attempt to solve at once three basic problems arising at testing a complex digital equipment for defects: 1) the problem of an exponential increasing of the complexity of testing the equipment with the complexity of…
The errors caused by the transitions with large frequency offsets (nonresonant transitions) are calculated analytically for a scalable solid-state quantum computer based on a one-dimensional spin chain with Ising interactions between…
Constructing a quantum computer requires immensely precise control over a quantum system. A lack of precision is often quantified by gate-error metrics, such as the average infidelity or the diamond distance. However, usually such…
The Contextuality-by-Default theory is illustrated on contextuality analysis of the idealized double-slit experiment. The experiment is described by a system of contextually labeled binary random variables each of which answers the…
The surface code, one of the leading candidates for quantum error correction, is known to protect encoded quantum information against stochastic, i.e., incoherent errors. The protection against coherent errors, such as from unwanted gate…
The CMOS integrated chips at advanced technology nodes are becoming more vulnerable to various sources of faults like manufacturing imprecisions, variations, aging, etc. Additionally, the intentional fault attacks (e.g., high power…
Coin-flipping is a fundamental task in two-party cryptography where two remote mistrustful parties wish to generate a shared uniformly random bit. While quantum protocols promising near-perfect security exist for weak coin-flipping -- when…
Quantum computers promise to solve certain problems exponentially faster than possible classically but are challenging to build because of their increased susceptibility to errors. Remarkably, however, it is possible to detect and correct…
Achieving high-fidelity entangling operations between qubits consistently is essential for the performance of multi-qubit systems and is a crucial factor in achieving fault-tolerant quantum processors. Solid-state platforms are particularly…
The assessment of noise margins and the related probability of failure in digital cells has growingly become essential, as nano-scale CMOS and FinFET technologies are confronting reliability issues caused by aging mechanisms, such as NBTI,…
In this work, we propose an algorithm to simulate rare events for electronic circuit design. Our approach heavily relies on a smart use of importance sampling, which enables us to tackle probabilities of the magnitude 10 --10. Not only can…
Many physical systems considered promising qubit candidates are not, in fact, two-level systems. Such systems can leak out of the preferred computational states, leading to errors on any qubits that interact with leaked qubits. Without…
Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) is pervasive in computer systems. Cell vulnerabilities caused by unintended phenomena (forced retention failure, latency alteration, rowhammer and rowpress) lead to unintended bit flips in memory. These…
The fundamental gates of linear optics quantum computation are realized by using single photons sources, linear optics and photon counters. Success of these gates is conditioned on the pattern of photons detected without using feedback.…
The behavior of real quantum hardware differs strongly from the simple error models typically used when simulating quantum error correction. Error processes are far more complex than simple depolarizing noise applied to single gates, and…
Noisy quantum computers suffer from readout or measurement error. It is a classical bit-flip error due to which state "1" is read out as "0" and vice-versa. The probability of readout error shows a state dependence i.e., flipping…
