Abstract

Quantum state measurement is essential for reading-out a quantum computing outcome. Meanwhile, the readout results are always affected by the large noise of quantum measurements in physical implementation, which also hinders the large-scale expansion of quantum computing. In light of this, we present an indirect quantum state readout method based on a single ancilla qubit that can avoid the large noise of multiple-qubit measurements. The theoretical analysis and simulations indicate that our method is more robust against the measurement noise and promises to become a method of large-scale quantum error correction and high-fidelity quantum state readout.

图 1 两个算法随机读取多比特量子态的平均正确概率. 在左图中, 测量噪声$\eta$固定为0.05, 研究平均正确概率随测量噪声n的变化. 在右图中, 比特数n固定为3, 研究平均正确概率随测量噪声$\eta$的变化. 平均正确概率的计算方法为随机抽取1000个量子态计算对应的$P_1$和$P_2$, 并取平均

Figure 1. Average probability of correctness of the two algorithms reading a n-qubit quantum state. In the left subgraph, the number of qubits is 3, and we investigate the dependence of average probability of correctness on the readout noise $\eta$. In the right subgraph, the readout noise $\eta=0.05$, and we investigate the dependence of average probability of correctness on the number of qubits. The values of average probability of correctness are calculated as the average of $P_1$ and $P_2$ on 1000 reading instances.
