Designing optimal control pulses that drive a noisy qubit to a target state is a challenging and crucial task for quantum engineering. In a situation where the properties of the quantum noise affecting the system are dynamic, a periodic characterization procedure is essential to ensure the models are updated. As a result, the operation of the qubit is disrupted frequently. In this paper, we propose a protocol that addresses this challenge by making use of a spectator qubit to monitor the noise in real-time. We develop a quantum machine-learning-based quantum feature engineering approach for designing the protocol. The complexity of the protocol is front-loaded in a characterization phase, which allow real-time execution during the quantum computations. We present the results of numerical simulations that showcase the favorable performance of the protocol.

The ability to use quantum technology to achieve useful tasks, be they scientific or industry related, boils down to precise quantum control. In general it is difficult to assess a proposed solution due to the difficulties in characterising the quant um system or device. These arise because of the impossibility to characterise certain components in situ, and are exacerbated by noise induced by the environment and active controls. Here we present a general purpose characterisation and control solution making use of a novel deep learning framework composed of quantum features. We provide the framework, sample data sets, trained models, and their performance metrics. In addition, we demonstrate how the trained model can be used to extract conventional indicators, such as noise power spectra.
We show that specific quantum noise, acting as an open-system reservoir for non-locally entangled atoms, can serve to preserve rather than degrade joint coherence. This creates a new type of long-time control over hiding and recovery of quantum entanglement.
Performing efficient quantum computer tuneup and calibration is essential for growth in system complexity. In this work we explore the link between facilitating such capabilities and the underlying architecture of the physical hardware. We focus on t he specific challenge of measuring (``mapping) spatially inhomogeneous quasi-static calibration errors using spectator qubits dedicated to the task of sensing and calibration. We introduce a novel architectural concept for such spectator qubits: arranging them spatially according to prescriptions from optimal 2D approximation theory. We show that this insight allows for efficient reconstruction of inhomogeneities in qubit calibration, focusing on the specific example of frequency errors which may arise from fabrication variances or ambient magnetic fields. Our results demonstrate that optimal interpolation techniques display near optimal error-scaling in cases where the measured characteristic (here the qubit frequency) varies smoothly, and we probe the limits of these benefits as a function of measurement uncertainty. For more complex spatial variations, we demonstrate that the NMQA formalism for adaptive measurement and noise filtering outperforms optimal interpolation techniques in isolation, and crucially, can be combined with insights from optimal interpolation theory to produce a general purpose protocol.
Protecting superconducting qubits from low-frequency noise is essential for advancing superconducting quantum computation. Based on the application of a periodic drive field, we develop a protocol for engineering dynamical sweet spots which reduce th e susceptibility of a qubit to low-frequency noise. Using the framework of Floquet theory, we prove rigorously that there are manifolds of dynamical sweet spots marked by extrema in the quasi-energy differences of the driven qubit. In particular, for the example of fluxonium biased slightly away from half a flux quantum, we predict an enhancement of pure-dephasing by three orders of magnitude. Employing the Floquet eigenstates as the computational basis, we show that high-fidelity single- and two-qubit gates can be implemented while maintaining dynamical sweet-spot operation. We further confirm that qubit readout can be performed by adiabatically mapping the Floquet states back to the static qubit states, and subsequently applying standard measurement techniques. Our work provides an intuitive tool to encode quantum information in robust, time-dependent states, and may be extended to alternative architectures for quantum information processing.
Label-free biosensors are important tools for clinical diagnostics and for studying biology at the single molecule level. The development of optical label-free sensors has allowed extreme sensitivity, but can expose the biological sample to photodama ge. Moreover, the fragility and complexity of these sensors can be prohibitive to applications. To overcome these problems, we develop a quantum noise limited exposed-core fiber sensor providing robust platform for label-free biosensing with a natural path toward microfluidic integration. We demonstrate the detection of single nanoparticles down to 25 nm in radius with optical intensities beneath known biophysical damage thresholds.
