Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāSpins associated to solid-state color centers are a promising platform for investigating quantum computation and quantum networks. Recent experiments have demonstrated multiqubit quantum processors, optical interconnects, and basic quantum error-correction protocols. One of the key open challenges towards larger-scale systems is to realize high-fidelity universal quantum gates. In this work, we design and demonstrate a complete high-fidelity gate set for the two-qubit system formed by the electron and nuclear spin of a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. We use gate set tomography (GST) to systematically optimize the gates and demonstrate single-qubit gate fidelities of up to <a:math xmlns:a=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā display=āinlineā overflow=āscrollā><a:mn>99.999</a:mn><a:mo stretchy=āfalseā>(</a:mo><a:mn>1</a:mn><a:mo stretchy=āfalseā>)</a:mo><a:mi mathvariant=ānormalā>%</a:mi></a:math> and a two-qubit gate fidelity of <g:math xmlns:g=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā display=āinlineā overflow=āscrollā><g:mn>99.93</g:mn><g:mo stretchy=āfalseā>(</g:mo><g:mn>5</g:mn><g:mo stretchy=āfalseā>)</g:mo><g:mi mathvariant=ānormalā>%</g:mi></g:math>. Our gates are designed to decouple unwanted interactions and can be extended to other electron-nuclear spin systems. The high fidelities demonstrated provide opportunities towards larger-scale quantum processing with color-center qubits.
