High-fidelity gates in a multi-qubit diamond quantum processor — •Margriet van Riggelen, Jiwon Yun, Hendrik Benjamin van Ommen, and Tim Hugo Taminiau — QuTech and Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands

Solid-state color centers are a promising platform exploring a range of quantum technologies such as distributed quantum computing and quantum communication. Examples using the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond include the fault-tolerant operation of a logical qubit [1] and the creation of entanglement on a metropolitan scale [2]. To perform quantum error correction in future algorithms, high-quality quantum control will be needed. Recently, a high-fidelity two-qubit gate was demonstrated on an isolated two-qubit system in purified diamond [3]. However, high-fidelity quantum gates for a multiqubit register based on solid-state color centers have so far remained elusive.

Here, we demonstrate high-fidelity control of six nuclear spins surrounding a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond using the dynamical decoupling radiofrequency gate. We characterize and benchmark the gates using gate set tomography and find an average of 99.18(2)% for the two-qubit gates in the register. We use the characterized gates in a variational quantum eigensolver algorithm to calculate the ground-state energy of molecular hydrogen and lithium hydride.
