Simultaneous Gate Set Tomography

ORAL

Abstract

Crosstalk is a leading source of failure in multiqubit quantum information processors. It can arise from a wide range of disparate physical phenomena, and can introduce subtle correlations in the errors experienced by a device. Several hardware characterization protocols are able to detect the presence of crosstalk, but few provide sufficient information to distinguish various crosstalk errors from one another. In this talk we introduce simultaneous gate set tomography, a protocol for detailed characterization of crosstalk errors. We demonstrate our methods by performing tomographic reconstructions on a two-qubit trapped ion system and a three-qubit superconducting qubit system. The results are consistent with expectations from simple physical models of these devices, but we also identify a number additional, unanticipated forms of crosstalk. SNL is managed and operated by NTESS under DOE NNSA contract DE-NA0003525.
