We propose a prime factorizer operated in a framework of quantum annealing (QA). The idea is inverse operation of a multiplier implemented with QA-based Boolean logic circuits. We designed the QA machine on an application-specific-annealing-computing architecture which efficiently increases available hardware budgets at the cost of restricted functionality. The invertible operation of QA logic gates consisting of superconducting flux qubits was confirmed by circuit simulation with classical noise sources. The circuits were implemented and fabricated by using superconducting integrated circuit technologies with Nb/AlOx/Nb Josephson junctions. We also propose a 2.5Dimensional packaging scheme of a qubit-chip/interpose /package-substrate structure for realizing practically large-scale QA systems.

We have developed a framework to convert an arbitrary integer factorization problem to an executable Ising model by first writing it as an optimization function and then transforming the k-bit coupling ($kgeq 3$) terms to quadratic terms using ancill ary variables. The method is efficient and uses $mathcal{O}(text{log}^2(N))$ binary variables (qubits) for finding the factors of integer $N$. The method was tested using the D-Wave 2000Q for finding an embedding and determining the prime factors for a given composite number. As examples, we present quantum annealing results for factoring 15, 143, 59989, and 376289 using 4, 12, 59, and 94 logical qubits respectively. The method is general and could be used to factor larger numbers
Quantum annealing machines based on superconducting qubits, which have the potential to solve optimization problems faster than digital computers, are of great interest not only to researchers but also to the general public. Here, we propose a quantu m annealing machine based on a semiconductor floating gate (FG) array. We use the same device structure as that of the commercial FG NAND flash memory except for small differences such as thinner tunneling barrier. We theoretically derive an Ising Hamiltonian from the FG system in its single-electron region. Recent high-density NAND flash memories are subject to several problems that originate from their small FG cells. In order to store information reliably, the number of electrons in each FG cell should be sufficiently large. However, the number of electrons stored in each FG cell becomes smaller and can be countable. So we utilize the countable electron region to operate single-electron effects of FG cells. Second, in the conventional NAND flash memory, the high density of FG cells induces the problem of cell-to-cell interference through their mutual capacitive couplings. This interference problem is usually solved by various methods using a software of error-correcting codes. We derive the Ising interaction from this natural capacitive coupling. Considering the size of the cell, 10 nm, the operation temperature is expected to be approximately that of a liquid nitrogen. If a commercial 64 Gbit NAND flash memory is used, ideally we expect it to be possible to construct 2 megabytes (MB) entangled qubits by using the conventional fabrication processes in the same factory as is used for manufacture of NAND flash memory. A qubit system of highest density will be obtained as a natural extension of the miniaturization of commonly used memories in this society.
Quantum annealing is an optimization technique which potentially leverages quantum tunneling to enhance computational performance. Existing quantum annealers use superconducting flux qubits with short coherence times, limited primarily by the use of large persistent currents $I_mathrm{p}$. Here, we examine an alternative approach, using qubits with smaller $I_mathrm{p}$ and longer coherence times. We demonstrate tunable coupling, a basic building block for quantum annealing, between two flux qubits with small ($sim 50~mathrm{nA}$) persistent currents. Furthermore, we characterize qubit coherence as a function of coupler setting and investigate the effect of flux noise in the coupler loop on qubit coherence. Our results provide insight into the available design space for next-generation quantum annealers with improved coherence.
We study quantum state tomography, entanglement detection, and channel noise reconstruction of propagating quantum microwaves via dual-path methods. The presented schemes make use of the following key elements: propagation channels, beam splitters, l inear amplifiers, and field quadrature detectors. Remarkably, our methods are tolerant to the ubiquitous noise added to the signals by phase-insensitive microwave amplifiers. Furthermore, we analyze our techniques with numerical examples and experimental data, and compare them with the scheme developed in Eichler $et$ $al$ (2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 106 220503; 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 107 113601), based on a single path. Our methods provide key toolbox components that may pave the way towards quantum microwave teleportation and communication protocols.
Topological order is now being established as a central criterion for characterizing and classifying ground states of condensed matter systems and complements categorizations based on symmetries. Fractional quantum Hall systems and quantum spin liqui ds are receiving substantial interest because of their intriguing quantum correlations, their exotic excitations and prospects for protecting stored quantum information against errors. Here we show that the Hamiltonian of the central model of this class of systems, the Toric Code, can be directly implemented as an analog quantum simulator in lattices of superconducting circuits. The four-body interactions, which lie at its heart, are in our concept realized via Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) that are driven by a suitably oscillating flux bias. All physical qubits and coupling SQUIDs can be individually controlled with high precision. Topologically ordered states can be prepared via an adiabatic ramp of the stabilizer interactions. Strings of qubit operators, including the stabilizers and correlations along non-contractible loops, can be read out via a capacitive coupling to read-out resonators. Moreover, the available single qubit operations allow to create and propagate elementary excitations of the Toric Code and to verify their fractional statistics. The architecture we propose allows to implement a large variety of many-body interactions and thus provides a versatile analog quantum simulator for topological order and lattice gauge theories.
