Description

In this talk I will discuss how it is possible to perform quantum information tasks in superconducting quantum devices using microwave guides and propagating photons. In the first half of the talk I will discuss how superconducting qubits couple to microwave guides, implementing canonical models of quantum optics and condensed matter physics. This includes both strong and ultrastrong coupling regimes, as well as quantum phase transitions, all of which can be studied with analytical and numerical techniques. In the second half of the talk, I will discuss how these setups can be used to implement quantum state transfer between superconducting quantum processors, and how these ideas can be used implementing quantum gates. I will discuss the limits of fidelity and speed, how to improve the transfer correcting for photon dispersion, or how to multiplex the transfer.
