The More You Know: Loss-DiVicenzo Quantum Computer

Posted on 4 November, 2015 by marcocerezo

The Loss-DiVicenzo Quantum Computer is a hardware proposal for the implementation of a scalable spin-based quantum computer in a coupled quantum dot system. The qubits of their quantum computer are realized as the two spin states of a confined electron. In … Continue reading →

The More You Know: DiVicenzo Criteria

Posted on 2 November, 2015 by marcocerezo

The DiVicenzo Criteria for implementing a quantum computer are a set of requirements that any candidate (circuit model) quantum computer must satisfy. These five requirements, plus two relating to the communication of quantum information were formulated by David P. DiVincenzo in 2008 and are … Continue reading →
