  • Quantum computing for combinatorial optimization problems using programmable atom arrays
    Patent number: 12165004
    Abstract: Systems and methods relate to selectively arranging a plurality of qubits into a spatial structure to encode a quantum computing problem. Exemplary arrangement techniques can be applied to encode various quantum computing problems. The plurality of qubits can be driven according to various driving techniques into a final state. The final state can be measured to identify an exact or approximate solution to the quantum computing problem.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 30, 2019
    Date of Patent: December 10, 2024
    Assignee: President and Fellows of Harvard College
    Inventors: Hannes Pichler, Shengtao Wang, Leo Xiangyu Zhou, Soonwon Choi, Mikhail D. Lukin
