• Abstract: Large-scale quantum computers are expected to benefit from modular architectures. Validating the capabilities of modular devices requires benchmarking strategies that assess performance within and between modules. In this work, we evaluate cross-platform verification protocols, which are critical for quantifying how accurately different modules prepare the same quantum state -- a key requirement for modular scalability and system-wide consistency. We demonstrate these algorithms using a six-qubit flip-chip superconducting quantum device consisting of two three-qubit modules on a single carrier chip, with connectivity for intra- and inter-module entanglement. We examine how the resource requirements of protocols relying solely on classical communication between modules scale exponentially with qubit number, and demonstrate that introducing an inter-module two-qubit gate enables sub-exponential scaling in cross-platform verification. This approach reduces the number of repetitions required by a factor of four for three-qubit states, with greater reductions projected for larger and higher-fidelity devices.

  Cross-platform verification, a critical undertaking in the realm of early-stage quantum computing, endeavors to characterize the similarity of two imperfect quantum devices executing identical algorithms. We introduce an innovative multimodal learning approach, recognizing that the formalism of data in this task embodies two distinct modalities. We devise a multimodal neural network to independently extract knowledge from these modalities, followed by a fusion operation to create a comprehensive data representation.

We expect that sub-100-ns two-qubit gates for qubits housed in nearby modules which are spatially separated by more than two centimeters could be obtained.

  We present a microwave quantum state router, centered on Josephson-junction based three-wave mixing, that realizes all-to-all couplings among four detachable quantum modules.
