PANDA aims to develop a photonic quantum computer using neutral rubidium atoms to enable efficient, deterministic photon-photon interactions for advanced quantum information processing applications.
Projectdetails
Introduction
The quantum properties of photons -- allowing low-loss long-distance transmission, multiplexing large amounts of quantum information into a single channel, and operations in standard, room-temperature settings -- yield great promise for scalable quantum computing (QC). However, low interaction is their great weakness for quantum information processing (QIP), as quantum circuits require photon-photon interactions.
Current Challenges
To date, two-photon interactions have only been facilitated either:
- Probabilistically with low efficiency
- Between individual photons via intermediaries with errors much too large for practical QIP.
Project Goals
PANDA has an ambitious core goal of building the foundation for a photonic quantum computer: an array of neutral rubidium atoms with subwavelength spacing carefully designed to harness collective effects to implement lossless, deterministic photon-photon interactions.
Proposed Solutions
Combined with novel high-efficiency single-photon handling, we will construct a powerful platform for strong, efficient, controllable non-linear operations with many QIP applications. These include:
- Deterministic two-photon quantum gates with unprecedented efficiency and repeat rates.
Focus Areas
We will especially apply our platform to continuous-variable (CV) QIP, particularly Measurement-Based QC, which fully utilizes quantum light field advantages. However, it has been hindered by the lack of deterministic non-Gaussian photon state generation and is not addressed in the Quantum Flagship.
Using our platform for deterministic photon subtraction will address this issue and, with a CV theory roadmap we will develop, pave the way for photonic QC.
Broader Applications
Our two-photon gates will also be applicable to Discrete-Variable QIP, placing PANDA in a complementary position to many possible portfolio projects.
Team Expertise
PANDA incorporates world-class experimentalists and theorists from leading research groups and SMEs with the expertise required to develop core technology that will both yield marketable IPR and fulfill our ambitious objectives.
