Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the current frontier in quantum computing for computational sciences, evaluating the technical requirements to translate theoretical asymptotic speedups into practical utility in the areas of chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science. We review foundational algorithms, including the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT), Quantum Phase Estimation (QPE), and the quantum […]
Abstract: Engineering quantum circuits that use minimal resource requirements is essential for suppressing noise-induced errors and enhancing the performance of quantum processors. Here, we propose minimal-complexity hardware constructions of Clifford circuits for implementing new two-qubit Clifford gates, effectively expanding the available Clifford circuit library. The circuits are realized through engineered coherent phonon-mediated interactions between two […]
Abstract: Hole spin qubits in silicon nanostructures offer fast, all-electrical control through electric-dipole spin resonance (EDSR), yet their performance strongly depends on device geometry. In this work, optimization criteria of Rabi frequency of single-hole spin qubits in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) quantum dots are identified by combining electrostatic and kk⋅pp simulations with a perturbative model of the […]
Abstract: We propose a novel design of Ge1-xSnx-on-Si single-photon avalanche photodiodes (SPADs) that aim to enhance the fill factor (FF) and minimize noise at room temperature. The device consists of a n+/i-well dot structure designed to eliminate the need for guard rings and multi-dot or array configurations typically used to enhance the active area. This […]
Abstract: The scalability of neutral-atom quantum computing is increasingly limited by a compiler–architecture challenge: logical circuits must be mapped onto dynamically reconfigurable atom arrays while controlling crosstalk, transport overhead, and hardware constraints. To address this problem, we present ZAP, a co-designed zoned architecture and deterministic compiler for field-programmable atom arrays. ZAP partitions the array into […]
Abstract: Most existing quantum teleportation schemes do not consider the memory effect of noise, which is becoming increasingly serious in practical quantum communication. In this paper, we propose two quantum teleportation protocols for noisy memory channels: one based on pre-flipping (PF) and another incorporating pre-flipping with environment-assisted measurement (PF-EAM). In the PF protocol, a pre-flipping […]
Abstract: Pauli Check Sandwiching (PCS) is an error detection scheme that protects quantum circuits by inserting pairs of parity checks and discarding runs that signal errors. However, each additional check introduces noise and exponentially increases sampling costs. To address these limitations, we propose Pauli Check Extrapolation (PCE), an error mitigation technique that obtains measured expectation […]
Abstract: We introduce a framework for entanglement-assisted quantum error correcting codes that unifies the three original frameworks for such codes called entanglement-assisted quantum error correction, entanglement-assisted operator quantum error correction, and entanglement-assisted classical enhanced quantum error correction under a single umbrella. As a consequence, new types of entanglement-assisted codes are identified and constructed. The unification […]
Abstract: Noisy and Intermediate-Scale Quantum, or NISQ, processors are sensitive to noise, prone to quantum decoherence, and are not yet capable of continuous quantum error correction for fault-tolerant quantum computation. Hence, quantum algorithms designed in the pre-fault-tolerant era cannot neglect the noisy nature of the hardware, and investigating the relationship between quantum hardware performance and […]
Abstract: When full-parameter updates are impractical for large language models (LLMs), parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) is commonly employed to reduce the number of trainable parameters. Classical PEFT methods, such as low-rank adaptation (LoRA), are limited to linear transformations and may not capture complex, high-order feature interactions under stringent parameter constraints. In contrast, parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) […]
