Programmable Quantum Processor with Quantum Dot Qubits

Abstract

The realization of controllable couplings between any two qubits and among any multiple qubits is the critical problem in building a programmable quantum processor (PQP). We present a design to implement these types of couplings in a double-dot molecule system, where all the qubits are connected directly with capacitors and the couplings between them are controlled via the voltage on the double-dot molecules. A general interaction Hamiltonian of n qubits is presented, from which we can derive the Hamiltonians for performing operations needed in building a PQP, such as gate operations between arbitrary two qubits and parallel coupling operations for multigroup qubits. The scheme is realizable with current technology.
