  4. Linear ion trap Ion Traps • Ions in a radio frequency trap interact by exchanging vibrational excitations. Each ion can be controlled by a polarized, properly focused laser beam. • Picture shows the electrode structure. • The electrode is 1mm thick.

  7. Silicon Based Quantum Computer

  8. Optical Quantum Computer

  9. What about scaling? • 1-7 qubits using NMR technology • 1-2 qubits using ion traps • 1-2 qubits using various other quantum technologies • Scaling is very hard! • Is the problem technical or fundamental?

  10. Technical or Fundamental? • Noise, “decoherence”, imprecision are detrimental • Similar problems exist in “classical” systems • Theory of linear error correction and fault tolerant computing can be generalised to the quantum setting (Shor, Steane, etc.) • Using “reasonable” physicalmodels, there exist fault-tolerant schemes for scalable quantum computing

  11. Quantum Circuits Quantum Error-Correction Circuit • Problem: State | = a|0 + b |1 is degraded by noise • Solution Encode in a suitable EC code such as the 5-bit code: |0 = |00000 + |11000 + |01100 + |00110 + |00011 + |10001 – |10100 – |01010 – |00000 – |10010 – |01001 – |11110 – |01111 – |10111 – |11011 – |11101 |1 =|11111 + |00111 + |10011 + …

  12. Summary

  13. Summary • Quantum Computers are a natural generalisation of “classical” computers • Quantum algorithms: Factoring, Discrete log, Hidden Subgroup, Hidden Affine Functions, Searching, Counting • Small implementations exist • Scaling is difficult, but seems to be a technological (not fundamental) problem
