Quantum sensing and computation can be realized with superconducting microwave circuits. Qubits are engineered quantum systems of capacitors and inductors with non-linear Josephson junctions. They operate in the single-excitation quantum regime, photons of $27 mu$eV at 6.5 GHz. Quantum coherence is fundamentally limited by materials defects, in particular atomic-scale parasitic two-level systems (TLS) in amorphous dielectrics at circuit interfaces.[1] The electric fields driving oscillating charges in quantum circuits resonantly couple to TLS, producing phase noise and dissipation. We use coplanar niobium-on-silicon superconducting resonators to probe decoherence in quantum circuits. By selectively modifying interface dielectrics, we show that most TLS losses come from the silicon surface oxide, and most non-TLS losses are distributed throughout the niobium surface oxide. Through post-fabrication interface modification we reduced TLS losses by 85% and non-TLS losses by 72%, obtaining record single-photon resonator quality factors above 5 million and approaching a regime where non-TLS losses are dominant.

Weyl semimetals for their exotic topological properties have drawn considerable attention in many research fields. When in combination with s-wave superconductors, the supercurrent can be carried by their topological surface channels, forming junctio ns mimic the behavior of Majorana bound states. Here, we present a transmon-like superconducting quantum intereference device (SQUID) consists of lateral junctions made of Weyl semimetal Td-MoTe2 and superconducting leads niobium nitride (NbN). The SQUID is coupled to a readout cavity made of molybdenum rhenium (MoRe), whose response at high power reveal the existence of the constituting Josephson junctions (JJs). The loop geometry of the circuit allows the resonant frequency of the readout cavity to be tuned by the magnetic flux. We demonstrate a JJ made of MoTe2 and a flux-tunable transmon-like circuit based on Weyl materials. Our study provides a platform to utilize topological materials in SQUID-based quantum circuits for potential applications in quantum information processing.

Generative adversarial learning is one of the most exciting recent breakthroughs in machine learning---a subfield of artificial intelligence that is currently driving a revolution in many aspects of modern society. It has shown splendid performance i n a variety of challenging tasks such as image and video generations. More recently, a quantum version of generative adversarial learning has been theoretically proposed and shown to possess the potential of exhibiting an exponential advantage over its classical counterpart. Here, we report the first proof-of-principle experimental demonstration of quantum generative adversarial learning in a superconducting quantum circuit. We demonstrate that, after several rounds of adversarial learning, a quantum state generator can be trained to replicate the statistics of the quantum data output from a digital qubit channel simulator, with a high fidelity ($98.8%$ on average) that the discriminator cannot distinguish between the true and the generated data. Our results pave the way for experimentally exploring the intriguing long-sought-after quantum advantages in machine learning tasks with noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices.

We present a method that outputs a sequence of simple unitary operations to prepare a given quantum state that is a generalized coherent state. Our method takes as inputs the expectation values of some relevant observables on the state to be prepared . Such expectation values can be estimated by performing projective measurements on $O(M^3 log(M/delta)/epsilon^2)$ copies of the state, where $M$ is the dimension of an associated Lie algebra, $epsilon$ is a precision parameter, and $1-delta$ is the required confidence level. The method can be implemented on a classical computer and runs in time $O(M^4 log(M/epsilon))$. It provides $O(M log(M/epsilon))$ simple unitaries that form the sequence. The number of all computational resources is then polynomial in $M$, making the whole procedure very efficient in those cases where $M$ is significantly smaller than the Hilbert space dimension. When the algebra of relevant observables is determined by some Pauli matrices, each simple unitary may be easily decomposed into two-qubit gates. We discuss applications to quantum state tomography and classical simulations of quantum circuits.

We propose a superconducting circuit architecture suitable for digital-analog quantum computing (DAQC) based on an enhanced NISQ family of nearest-neighbor interactions. DAQC makes a smart use of digital steps (single qubit rotations) and analog bloc ks (parametrized multiqubit operations) to outperform digital quantum computing algorithms. Our design comprises a chain of superconducting charge qubits coupled by superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). Using magnetic flux control, we can activate/deactivate exchange interactions, double excitation/de-excitations, and others. As a paradigmatic example, we present an efficient simulation of an $elltimes h$ fermion lattice (with $2<ell leq h$), using only $2(2ell+1)^2+24$ analog blocks. The proposed architecture design is feasible in current experimental setups for quantum computing with superconducting circuits, opening the door to useful quantum advantage with fewer resources.

Simulating quantum physics with a device which itself is quantum mechanical, a notion Richard Feynman originated, would be an unparallelled computational resource. However, the universal quantum simulation of fermionic systems is daunting due to thei r particle statistics, and Feynman left as an open question whether it could be done, because of the need for non-local control. Here, we implement fermionic interactions with digital techniques in a superconducting circuit. Focusing on the Hubbard model, we perform time evolution with constant interactions as well as a dynamic phase transition with up to four fermionic modes encoded in four qubits. The implemented digital approach is universal and allows for the efficient simulation of fermions in arbitrary spatial dimensions. We use in excess of 300 single-qubit and two-qubit gates, and reach global fidelities which are limited by gate errors. This demonstration highlights the feasibility of the digital approach and opens a viable route towards analog-digital quantum simulation of interacting fermions and bosons in large-scale solid state systems.
