Abstract

En 中文
Three-level A systems appear in various quantum information processing platforms. In several control schemes, the excited level serves as an auxiliary state for implementing gate operations between the lower qubit states. However, extra excited levels give rise to unwanted transitions that cause leakage and other errors, degrading the gate fidelity. We focus on a coherent-population-trapping scheme for gates and design protocols that reduce the effects of the unwanted off-resonant couplings and improve the gate performance up to several orders of magnitude. For a particular setup of unwanted couplings, we find an exact solution, which leads to error-free gate operations via only a static detuning modification. In the general case, we improve gate operations by adding corrective modulations to the pulses, thereby generalizing the derivative removal by adiabatic gates protocol to A systems. Our techniques enable fast and high-fidelity gates and apply to a wide range of optically driven platforms, such as quantum dots, color centers, and trapped ions.
