    Abstract: A method for obtaining a plurality of entangled qubits represented by a lattice structure that includes a plurality of contiguous lattice cells. A respective edge of a respective lattice cell corresponds to one or more edge qubits, and a respective face of the respective lattice cell corresponding to one or more face qubits. Each face qubit is entangled with adjacent edge qubits. A first face of the respective lattice cell corresponds to two or more face qubits, and/or a first edge corresponds to two or more edge qubits.

    Abstract: A device includes a superconductor layer and a piezoelectric layer positioned adjacent to the superconductor layer. The piezoelectric layer is configured to apply a first strain to the superconductor layer in response to receiving a first voltage that is below a predefined voltage threshold and to apply a second strain to the superconductor layer in response to receiving a second voltage that is above the predefined voltage threshold. While the device is maintained below a superconducting threshold temperature for the superconductor layer and is supplied with current below a superconducting threshold current for the superconductor layer, the superconductor layer is configured to 1) operate in a superconducting state when the piezoelectric layer applies the first strain to the superconductor layer and 2) operate in an insulating state when the piezoelectric layer applies the second strain to the superconductor layer.

    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.
