Publication number: 20220147266Abstract: Techniques for implementing a QRAM by routing quantum information through multiple modes of a bosonic system are described. According to some aspects, a single bosonic system may be configured to maintain quantum information in a large number of independent modes at the same time. Suitable operations upon these modes may allow a quantum address value to be routed to modes associated with respective bits such that the only modes altered by the operations are those associated with the addresses being accessed. These modes may be operated upon based on the stored values then extracted to obtain the desired correlated superposition of the stored bit values in the addresses. The bits stored at the address locations may be classical bits, or may be qubits.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2020Publication date: May 12, 2022Applicant: Yale UniversityInventors: Connor Hann, Changling Zou, Yiwen Chu, Yaxing Zhang, Robert J.
