Multi-Qubit Algorithms in Josephson Phase Qubits

Abstract : This document represents the experimental effort at the University of California-Santa Barbara, including ideas on the metrology needs for building and testing qubits, in line with the high-level goals of the MQCO program. It also summarizes our latest experimental results, as given by the 9 qubit experiment to protect against bit-flip errors. We also report on theoretical efforts at the University of the Saarland and University of California-Riverside.
