Narrow Results

Breather is an elementary excitation regarded as a bound state of a fluxon and an antifluxon in a long Josephson junction. In quantum-mechanical regime, the breather energy is quantized so that the breather can be considered as an artificial moving atom. We propose a new type of fluxon qubit that is constructed by quantum-mechanical superposition of the breather's states. We describe quantum logic gates of breather qubit required for constructing quantum computer. In addition, our qubit can move in the system so that transfer of quntum information is possible between mobile qubits as well as stationary qubits. Our talking qubits support the global information sharing in quantum information networks.

We propose a fluxon-controlled quantum computer incorporated with three-qubit quantum error correction using special gate operations, i.e. joint-phase and SWAP gate operations, inherent in capacitively coupled superconducting flux qubits. The proposed quantum computer acts exactly like a knitting machine at home.
