Demonstration of a Logical Architecture Uniting Motion and In-Place Entanglement

We demonstrate a logical neutral atom architecture that integrates atom motion with in-place entanglement to achieve lower overheads than entangling-zone approaches. Using a 114-qubit device, we perform three proof-of-principle logical-qubit experiments. First, we implement a pre-compiled, non-scalable variant of Shor's algorithm, observing improved logical-over-physical performance, including with loss correction and leakage detection, achieving up to a 2x reduction in TVD. Second, we construct constant-depth logical CX ladders; on current hardware these execute with serial entangling operations, yet still yield 2-4x lower error for 8 and 12 logical qubits. Third, we prepare the [[16,4,4]] code and perform single-round decoding with post-processed error correction, achieving 8x improvement on logical vs physical. These results demonstrate how combining motion with in-place entanglement offers lower overhead than entangling-zone approaches.

Design Tradeoffs in Photonically Linked Qubit Networks

Quantum networking can be realized by distributing pairs of entangled qubits between remote quantum processing nodes. Devoted communication qubits within each node can naturally interface with photons which bus quantum information between nodes. With the introduction of CQED to enhance interactions between communication qubits and photons, advanced protocols capable of achieving high entanglement distribution rates with high fidelity become feasible. In this paper, we consider two such protocols based on trapped ion communication qubits strongly coupled to small optical cavities. We study the rate and fidelity performance of these protocols as a function of critical device parameters and the photonic degree of freedom used to carry the quantum information. We compare the performance of these protocols with the traditional two-photon interference scheme, subjecting all protocols to the same experimentally relevant constraints. We find that adoption of the strong-coupling protocols could provide substantial distribution rate improvements of $30-75\%$ while maintaining the high-fidelities $\mathcal{F}\gtrsim99\%$ of the traditional scheme.
