  • Fault tolerant quantum error correction with linear codes
    Patent number: 11700020
    Abstract: This disclosure focuses on example embodiments of a classical approach to the problem of quantum error correction in the presence of faults. Linear codes equipped with faulty parity measurements are disclosed. Example definitions of fault tolerance are introduced and embodiments of a fault tolerant scheme are disclosed that reduce the number of parity measurements required compared with Shor method. Such schemes are well suited to be implemented in the classical control device of a quantum computer in order to ensure quantum fault tolerance.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: July 11, 2023
    Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC
    Inventors: Nicolas Delfosse, Krysta Svore, Benjamin W. Reichardt
