Condition for fault-tolerant quantum computation with a cavity-QED scheme
Hayato Goto, Kouichi Ichimura · Physical Review A · 2010
A condition for fault-tolerant quantum computation (FTQC) with cavity schemes is discussed. It is shown that the condition is very hard if the standard error threshold of FTQC is simply applied. To relax the condition, we propose to combine the cavity-quantum-electrodynamics (QED) scheme proposed by Duan et al. [Phys. Rev. A 72, 032333 (2005)] and Xiao et al. [Phys. Rev. A 70, 042314 (2004)] with the recently proposed FTQC scheme with probabilistic two-qubit gates [Goto and Ichimura, Phys. Rev. A 80, 040303(R) (2009)]. It is shown that the condition for FTQC is dramatically relaxed compared to the case of the standard threshold. The optimization of the cavity-QED scheme is also discussed.
