• Abstract summary: We study a systematic perturbative expansion in miscalibrated parameters of the Molmer-Sorensen entangling gate. We compute the gate evolution operator which allows us to obtain relevant key properties.

• Abstract: A major challenge for the realisation of useful universal quantum computers is achieving high fidelity two-qubit entangling gate operations. However, calibration errors can affect the quantum gate operations and limit their fidelity. To reduce such errors it is desirable to have an analytical understanding and quantitative predictions of the effects that miscalibrations of gate parameters have on the gate performance. In this work, we study a systematic perturbative expansion in miscalibrated parameters of the Molmer-Sorensen entangling gate, which is widely used in trapped ion quantum processors. Our analytical treatment particularly focuses on systematic center line detuning miscalibrations. Via a unitary Magnus expansion, we compute the gate evolution operator which allows us to obtain relevant key properties such as relative phases, electronic populations, quantum state purity and fidelities. These quantities, subsequently, are used to assess the performance of the gate using the fidelity of entangled states as performance metric. We verify the predictions from our model by benchmarking them against measurements in a trapped-ion quantum processor. The method and the results presented here can help design and calibrate high-fidelity gate operations of large-scale quantum computers.

We evaluate the fluctuations of the output quantum state for identity and SWAP gate operations in two-qubit operations across various input states. Our results reveal that as the coupling strength between the quantum system and its environment increases, so does the QEM cost function.

  We present a study of crosstalk errors in a quantum-computing architecture based on a single string of ions confined by a radio-frequency trap, and manipulated by individually-addressed laser beams. This type of errors affects spectator qubits that, ideally, should remain unaltered during the application of single- and two-qubit quantum gates addressed at a different set of active qubits. We microscopically model crosstalk errors from first principles and present a detailed study showing the importance of using a coherent vs incoherent error modelling and, moreover, discuss strategies to actively suppress this crosstalk at the gate level.
