The discussion centers around the physical implementation of the CNOT quantum gate, specifically seeking schematics and detailed explanations of how qubits are prepared and how entanglement is realized in various physical systems. The scope includes theoretical and practical aspects of quantum computing, particularly in relation to quantum gates.
Participants generally agree that the implementation of the CNOT gate is contingent upon the physical system used for qubits, but multiple competing views and approaches remain regarding the specifics of these implementations and the availability of resources.
The discussion highlights the complexity of implementing quantum gates and the varying methods of qubit realization, but does not resolve the specific details or provide definitive resources.
It s exactly like that. I m not much interested in the schematics, or the way se see them mathematically, just looking for some links that explain how to implement single qubits and gates, and maybe quantum error correction. There were some articles about that on phys.org, but I m just lookjng for something free and more 'detailed'. I know that there could be different ways to implement cubits, though.. Such as ion trapping, and so on..Strilanc said:It depends on how the qubits are implemented, so really you're asking about "how do people implement qubits that can be controlled and how do they make them interact?".
The exact details are hairy. Although, I happen to remember Christopher Monroe gave a talk at Google in May, and he mentioned how to implement a controlled-not gate in a trapped ion computer. It's at around 33m. You might need the preceding context from the rest of the talk for it to make sense to you.
