MINIMIZATION OF NONRESONANT EFFECTS IN A SCALABLE ISING SPIN QUANTUM COMPUTER
Abstract
The errors caused by the transitions with large frequency offsets (nonresonant transitions) are calculated analytically for a scalable solid-state quantum computer based on a one-dimensional spin chain with Ising interactions between neighboring spins. Selective excitations of the spins are enabled by a uniform gradient of the external magnetic field. We calculate the probabilities of all unwanted nonresonant transitions associated with the flip of each spin with nonresonant frequency and with flips of two spins: one with resonant and one with nonresonant frequencies. It is shown that these errors oscillate with changing gradient of the external magnetic field. Choosing the optimal values of this gradient allows us to decrease these errors by 50%.
