  • Patent number: 12591798
    Abstract: A quantum system controller configured to perform conditional transport with just-in-time waveform selection is provided. The quantum system controller comprises a processing device configured to generate a set of processed waveform files configured to cause a quantum processor of the quantum computer to perform a quantum circuit; cause the processed waveform files to be preloaded to one or more arbitrary waveform generators; and causing at least one signal to be provided to the one or more arbitrary waveform generators to execute at least one of the preloaded processed waveform files, wherein the signals provided to arbitrary waveform generators to execute at least one of the preloaded waveform files is in response to the quantum system controller evaluating a conditional operation. The signals provided to the arbitrary waveform generators allow for the just-in-time selection a waveform selection not on an expected path of the quantum circuit.

  • Publication number: 20240160985
    Abstract: A controller is configured to control operation of a confinement apparatus comprising one or more radio frequency rails and a plurality of control electrodes. The controller comprises a processing element, non-transitory computer-readable memory storing computer-executable instructions. The computer-executable instructions are configured to, when executed by the processing element, cause the controller to at least identify a manipulatable object transport operation to be performed; obtain a set of voltage signal sequences corresponding to the manipulatable object transport operation to be performed from the voltage signal sequence library; and cause one or more voltage sources to apply respective voltage signal sequences of the set of voltage signal sequences corresponding to the manipulatable object transport operation to respective control electrodes of the plurality of control electrodes via respective filters.

  • Publication number: 20230229956
    Abstract: Quantum computers, systems, apparatuses, and/or the like and corresponding methods for de-exciting coherent motional modes of an atomic object crystal confined by an atomic object confinement apparatus. One or more voltage sources are controlled to cause a waveform to be applied to an array of electrodes of the atomic object confinement apparatus. Application of the waveform to the array of electrodes causes each of the one or more transport operations to be performed on the respective atomic object crystal and causes de-excitation of at least one coherent motional mode of the respective atomic object crystal corresponding to the at least one of the one or more transport operations. The respective shim waveform configured to de-excite the at least one coherent motional mode may be determined based on a parameterized shim waveform and a calibration process for determining parameters corresponding to the atomic object confinement apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10951002
    Abstract: A multi-frequency laser system comprises a master oscillator to generate a master beam and an arm splitter to split the master beam into a first beam and a second beam. The first beam is provided to a primary mode arm for generation of a primary mode beam and the second beam is provided to a sideband mode arm for generation of a sideband mode beam. The sideband beam arm comprises a modulator to modulate the second beam to generate a beam comprising sidebands; a filter to select a particular sideband mode from the beam comprising sidebands; an amplifier cavity to amplify the particular sideband mode and suppress other residual modes; and an acousto-optical modulator to shift the frequency of each mode of an amplified selected sideband beam to generate a sideband mode beam. The primary and sideband mode beams are provided in a coordinated manner to enact a quantum gate.
