One- and two-dimensional cluster states for topological phase simulation and measurement-based quantum computation

Quantum entanglement is a fundamental resource for quantum information processing and serves as a critical benchmark for quantum hardware performance. Cluster states are a special class of entangled states that serve as universal resources for measurement-based quantum computation and possess an intrinsic symmetry-protected topological order, which confers robustness against symmetry-respecting noise. Here we report the scalable preparation and verification of genuine multipartite cluster states on the 105-qubit Zuchongzhi 3.1 superconducting processor. We achieve one-dimensional cluster states of up to 95 qubits and two-dimensional cluster states of up to 72 qubits. The symmetry-protected topological cluster states exhibit input-state-dependent robustness under symmetry-breaking perturbations due to an operational parity structure that enhances the performance of measurement-based quantum computation. Furthermore, we use our two-dimensional cluster states to implement the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm within the measurement-based quantum computation framework, achieving higher output-state fidelity compared with traditional circuit-based models and a query efficiency advantage over classical approaches. Our work establishes a scalable platform that combines large-scale entanglement generation, symmetry-protected topological order and practical quantum algorithms to enable robust, fault-tolerant measurement-based quantum computation.

Surface code logical operations on a superconducting quantum processor

Fault-tolerant quantum computation requires logical operations that manipulate encoded information while preserving quantum error-correction protection. In planar surface-code architectures, code deformation and lattice surgery provide a local, measurement-based route to such operations. Here we experimentally realize key elements of patch-based surface-code logical processing on a 107-qubit superconducting quantum processor. We first implement a reusable primitive layer comprising merge and split, patch expansion and shrinkage, and deformations mediated by domain walls and twist defects. We then compose these primitives to realize logical state routing, the logical controlled-NOT gate, and the single-qubit Hadamard and phase gates, which together form a Clifford-generating set. All operations are implemented on distance-three rotated surface-code patches with multi-round syndrome extraction and neural-network decoding, without post-selection. Our results advance superconducting surface-code experiments from protected logical memory to active, patch-based fault-tolerant logical operations.

Establishing a New Benchmark in Quantum Computational Advantage with 105-qubit Zuchongzhi 3.0 Processor

In the relentless pursuit of quantum computational advantage, we present a significant advancement with the development of Zuchongzhi 3.0. This superconducting quantum computer prototype, comprising 105 qubits, achieves high operational fidelities, with single-qubit gates, two-qubit gates, and readout fidelity at 99.90%, 99.62% and 99.18%, respectively. Our experiments with an 83-qubit, 32-cycle random circuit sampling on Zuchongzhi 3.0 highlight its superior performance, achieving one million samples in just a few hundred seconds. This task is estimated to be infeasible on the most powerful classical supercomputers, Frontier, which would require approximately $6.4\times 10^9$ years to replicate the task. This leap in processing power places the classical simulation cost six orders of magnitude beyond Google's SYC-67 and SYC-70 experiments [Nature 634, 328(2024)], firmly establishing a new benchmark in quantum computational advantage. Our work not only advances the frontiers of quantum computing but also lays the groundwork for a new era where quantum processors play an essential role in tackling sophisticated real-world challenges.

A universal deep learning strategy for designing high-quality-factor photonic resonances

Resonance is instrumental in modern optics and photonics for novel phenomena such as cavity quantum electrodynamics and electric-field-induced transparency. While one can use numerical simulations to sweep geometric and material parameters of optical structures, these simulations usually require considerably long calculation time (spanning from several hours to several weeks) and substantial computational resources. Such requirements significantly limit their applicability in understanding and inverse designing structures with desired resonance performances. Recently, the introduction of artificial intelligence allows for faster predictions of resonance with less demanding computational requirements. However, current end-to-end deep learning approaches generally fail to predict resonances with high quality-factors (Q-factor). Here, we introduce a universal deep learning strategy that can predict ultra-high Q-factor resonances by decomposing spectra with an adaptive data acquisition (ADA) method while incorporating resonance information. We exploit bound states in the continuum (BICs) with an infinite Q-factor to testify this resonance-informed deep learning (RIDL) strategy. The trained RIDL strategy achieves high-accuracy prediction of reflection spectra and photonic band structures while using a considerably small training dataset. We further develop an inverse design algorithm based on the RIDL strategy for a symmetry-protected BIC on a suspended silicon nitride photonic crystal (PhC) slab. The predicted and measured angle-resolved band structures show minimum differences. We expect the RIDL strategy to apply to many other physical phenomena which exhibit Gaussian, Lorentzian, and Fano resonances.
