文摘Over the past few years,quantum computation based on superconducting circuits has achieved remarkable progress.A milestone occurred in 2019 when Google released Sycamore,a processor with 54 qubits,and claimed quantum supremacy by performing in just 100 s a specific computation which would take a classical supercomputer,as stated by Google’s team,10000 years to complete.[1]In 2021,a strong quantum advantage was demonstrated by Pan and his colleagues from the University of Science and Technology of China,using a quantum processor named Zuchongzhi,which has 66 functional qubits.[2]This year,the record of the number of quantum qubits has been lifted to 127 qubits.[3]Indeed,the number of qubits is limited to a few hundreds due to the finite space of dilution refrigerators,where the superconducting qubits must be placed to be isolated from thermal noise.However,this number is still several orders of magnitude away from the requirement of quantum error correction,which is essential for general-purpose quantum computers.[4–8].
