Quantum network theory of computing with respect to entangled flux qubits and external perturbation

In this work, we attempt to show the differences between traditional qubit-based spintronic methodology for quantum computation and the possible ballistic quantum network implementations. Flux qubits can be considered topologically similar to the persistent currents possessed as the angular momentum in Aharonov-Bohm loops, which can be coupled and thus entangled together. Since entanglement is guaranteed for coupled quantum networks, starting from a point-contacted situation, we first investigate how varying the degree of entanglement strength can affect the superposition of the four possible states for two isolated flux qubits being brought together. In general, the superposition is destroyed once the degree of entanglement is altered from the point-contact situation. However, we show that for a specific network with maximum entanglement, a Bell state situation can be produced. We then examine the effects of varying the external perturbation strength on the readout capability in quantum networks by chang...
