  • Techniques for error correction of a logical qubit and related systems and methods
    Patent number: 11782779
    Abstract: Techniques for quantum error correction of a multi-level system are provided and described. In some aspects, techniques for encoding a state of a multi-level quantum system include encoding a quantum information in a two-mode state of two quantum mechanical oscillators. Techniques for protecting the two-mode state against dephasing and energy loss are described.
    Type: Grant
