Frequency-Multiplexed Parallel Gates for Quantum LDPC Codes in a Two-Dimensional Ion Crystal
Abstract
Quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes admit high encoding rates but require nonlocal entangling gates for syndrome measurement. Instead of physically moving the qubits which slows down with the increasing qubit number, here we propose to achieve parallel nonlocal entangling gates on a two-dimensional (2D) ion crystal using frequency-multiplexing. Adiabatic conditions ensure the suppression of gate infidelity and crosstalk error, as well as their robustness against slow drift in the trap frequency which is a leading error source in ion trap. We consider a numerical example of a $[[248,10,18]]$ bivariate bicycle code on a 2D crystal of 512 ions. By optimizing the mapping of the qubits and the assignment of the frequency bands for multiplexing, we show that a moderate laser power is sufficient for parallelism, and that a logical error rate of 10−12 can be achieved under realistic noise parameters.
