Abstract: An example photonic integrated circuit (PIC) includes a plurality of input ports to input light, such as a quantum state of light that comprises one or more photons, into the PIC. In addition, the PIC may include a waveguide network that includes a crossing network to combine light, and optical couplers that are coupled to the crossing network. The PIC can further include output ports to output the light.

Abstract: An optical device includes a substrate, a dielectric layer on the substrate, a waveguide within the dielectric layer, a light sensitive component (e.g., a photodetector) in the dielectric layer and coupled to the waveguide, and a plurality of light isolation structures in at least one of the substrate or the dielectric layer and configured to prevent stray light from reaching the light sensitive component. In some embodiments, a light isolation structure in the plurality of light isolation structures includes two opposing sidewalls and a filling material between the two opposing sidewalls. The two opposing sidewalls include an optical isolation layer. The filling material is characterized by a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) matching a CTE of at least one of the substrate or the dielectric layer.

Abstract: Computer systems and methods are provided for increasing a rate of simulation for quantum computing devices. A quantum computing device includes a plurality of gates, each of which is coupled to one or more modes. In the provided computer systems and methods, a device definition and state information for the quantum computing device are received.

Abstract: A method of resolving a number of photons received by a photon detector includes optically coupling a waveguide to a superconducting wire having alternating narrow and wide portions; electrically coupling the superconducting wire to a current source; and electrically coupling an electrical contact in parallel with the superconducting wire. The electrical contact has a resistance less than a resistance of the superconducting wire while at least one narrow portion of the superconducting wire is in a non-superconducting state. The method includes providing to the superconducting wire, from the current source, a current configured to maintain the superconducting wire in a superconducting state in the absence of incident photons; receiving one or more photons via the waveguide; measuring an electrical property of the superconducting wire, proportional to a number of photons incident on the superconducting wire; and determining the number of received photons based on the electrical property.

Abstract: A fault-tolerant quantum computer using topological codes such as surface codes can have an architecture that reduces the amount of idle volume generated. The architecture can include qubit modules that generate surface code patches for different qubits and a network of interconnections between different qubit modules. The interconnections can include “port” connections that selectably enable coupling of boundaries of surface code patches generated in different qubit modules and/or “quickswap” connections that selectably enable transferring the state of a surface code patch from one qubit module to another. Port and/or quickswap connections can be made between a subset of qubit modules. For instance port connections can connect a given qubit module to other qubit modules within a fixed range. Quickswap connections can provide a log-tree network of direct connections between qubit modules.

Abstract: Circuits and methods can implement reconfigurable spatial rearrangement (also referred to as “spatial multiplexing”) for a group of photons propagating in waveguides. For instance, two sets of small optical multiplexer circuits (such as two sets of 2×2 optical multiplexer circuits or two sets of 3×3 optical multiplexer circuits) can be used to rearrange a pattern of photons on a first set of waveguides into a usable input pattern for a downstream optical circuit.

Abstract: A modular quantum entanglement processing system can include a plurality of seed state systems, resource state systems, and fusion systems that can be ordered in different arrangements. The systems can be composed of modular assemblies or chips, such that the systems can be modularized and extended to perform entanglement based processing of tasks in a scalable manner. Some of the assemblies or chips of the different systems can be designed to operate at cryogenic temperatures, such as detector, while other assemblies or chips of the different systems can operate at room temperature, where the different chip types can be coupled to one another using fiber optic cables.
