• Abstract summary: Large-scale quantum computers will inevitably need quantum error correction (QEC) to protect information against decoherence. AQEC schemes work by transforming error states into excitations that can be efficiently removed through engineered dissipation. The recently proposed AQEC scheme by Li et al., called the Star code, can autonomously correct or suppress all single qubit error channels using two transmons as encoders with a tunable coupler and two lossy resonators as a cooling source.

• Abstract: Large-scale quantum computers will inevitably need quantum error correction (QEC) to protect information against decoherence. Given that the overhead of such error correction is often formidable, autonomous quantum error correction (AQEC) proposals offer a promising near-term alternative. AQEC schemes work by transforming error states into excitations that can be efficiently removed through engineered dissipation. The recently proposed AQEC scheme by Li et al., called the Star code, can autonomously correct or suppress all single qubit error channels using two transmons as encoders with a tunable coupler and two lossy resonators as a cooling source. The Star code requires only two-photon interactions and can be realized with linear coupling elements, avoiding experimentally challenging higher-order terms needed in many other AQEC proposals, but needs carefully selected parameters to achieve quadratic improvements in logical states' lifetimes. Here, we theoretically and numerically demonstrate the optimal parameter choices in the Star Code. We further discuss adapting the Star code to other planar superconducting circuits, which offers a scalable alternative to single qubits for incorporation in larger quantum computers or error correction codes.

  Large-scale quantum computers will inevitably need quantum error correction to protect information against decoherence. Traditional error correction requires many qubits, along with high-efficiency error syndrome measurement and real-time feedback. Autonomous quantum error correction (AQEC) instead uses steady-state bath engineering to perform the correction in a hardware-efficient manner.

  Bosonic quantum error correcting codes are primarily designed to protect against single-photon loss. Error correction requires a recovery operation that maps the error states -- which have opposite parity -- back onto the code states. Here, we realize a collection of photon-number-selective, simultaneous photon addition operations on a bosonic mode.
