Quantum Annealing Processor §� Quantum annealing is an alternative quantum computing model that is progressing faster §� A working quantum annealing processor (DWave-‐1) based on 128 superconducting flux qubits exists today ú� 500-‐qubit version due by Q2 2012 Qubits Coupler 8-‐qubit unit cell ≡ The DWave-‐1 processor implements a fixed non-‐planar connection topology on 128 qubits. Different problems are encoded by changing the coupling strengths J ij between qubits and the biases h i of each qubit. Harnesses quantum phenomena not available to conventional computers, i.e., superposition, entanglement, tunneling, to find energy minima much faster than is possible using any conventional computer.
State-‐of-‐the-‐Art Adiabatic Quantum Computer Chips Current Design Next Generation Design Rainier Vesuvius (500 qubits) • Higher density / more qubits per unit area • More robust against process defects = higher yields • Larger tunnel splitting = more robust quantum dynamics • Less parametric variability • Read no longer heats up the chip Images courtesy of DWave Systems, Inc.
