Compared with prior art, the present invention provides a kind of quantum parameters amplifier, including it is sequentially connected for forming The superconducting quantum interference device 300 of the capacitance module 100 of oscillator-amplification circuit, reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 and controllable impedance; The superconducting quantum interference device 300 of the controllable impedance is grounded far from one end of the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200;Pass through tune The inductance for saving the superconducting quantum interference device 300 of the controllable impedance makes the resonance frequency of the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 Rate is equal to frequency signal to be amplified so that signal to be amplified and pump signal in reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 into Row nonlinear interaction amplify in turn it is signal to be amplified, after signal to be amplified and pump signal carries out nonlinear interaction, Include not only signal to be amplified in output signal, further includes various idler fi, it further include voltage modulation circuit 400, setting The controllable impedance superconducting quantum interference device 300 close to described 200 one end of reflection type microwave resonant cavity, biased when applying When voltage, so that quantum parameters amplifier is in the pump signal frequency f of optimum working modepIt is signal to be amplified without being selected as fsFrequency multiplication, thus when at a distance from the pump signal frequency of selection and frequency signal to be amplified have and can be split by filter, Each idler f of outputiAlso all with f signal to be amplifiedsWith the distance that can be split by filter, the present invention is by setting Voltage modulation circuit 400 is set, so that the operating mode adjusting of quantum parameters amplifier is no longer only limited by pump signal, but The voltage bias and pump signal provided by voltage modulation circuit is adjusted together, when the suitable bias voltage of selection and pumping letter Number when, can make each irrelevant signal generated in quantum parameters amplifier that can protect on frequency spectrum with signal to be amplified The distance that can be split by filter is held, and then these irrelevant signals can be eliminated, improves quantum parameters amplifier to quantum bit Read the reading fidelity of signal.
It should be noted that in quantum calculation field, the operation result of quantum chip in order to obtain, it would be desirable to amount Signal, that is, quantum bit of sub- chip output reads signal and is acquired and analyzes.It is extremely micro- that quantum bit reads detectable signal Weak, by taking superconductive quantum bit system as an example, quantum bit reads detectable signal usually in 4-8GHz frequency range, power down to- 140dBm is hereinafter, even up to -150dBm or less.In view of quantum bit detectable signal and quantum bit read the coupling of detector Efficiency is closed, it is about 1-10 or so that the power of -150dBm to -140dBm, which corresponds to the photon numbers inside detector, so micro- Weak detectable signal can also additionally incur loss after detector is spread out of again.Therefore, the application of quantum chip, needs The key problem of solution extracts effective quantum state information first is that how to read in signal from so faint quantum bit.
Assuming that the quantum bit that eventually off quantum bit reads detector, which reads signal, has 10 useful photons, they It will enter in subsequent route, mix with thermal noise, electrical noise etc..Wherein, the thermal noise of standard meets thermodynamics distribution, can To useIt is converted into number of photons n, k in above formulaBFor Boltzmann constant, T is that frequency is ambient noise at f Temperature, h are Planck's constant.Assuming that quantum chip is in 10mK temperature environment, then according to above formula, n can be ignored not less than 0.1 Meter, still, the reception system that quantum bit reads signal are located at room temperature, and n is about 1000, if quantum bit reading signal is straight It connects outflow to come, then can be submerged in noise.It therefore, the use of parameter amplifier is necessary.
Any amplifier all can extraly introduce noise while amplifying original signal.We usually with noise etc. Temperature, that is, noise are imitated to measure, the index is bigger, then noise is poorer.Amplifier is bound to deteriorate signal-to-noise ratio, therefore, puts The setting of big device should raise the gain of amplifier as much as possible, while controlling the noise temperature of amplifier.Noise temperature is same Sample meetsTherefore, we can convert noise temperature to the noise light subnumber that frequency is f.And signal-to-noise ratio can To be described as, the ratio of signal number of photons and noise light subnumber.
Commercial amplifier at present, the performance low-noise amplifier that most preferably Sweden LNF company produces, can amplify 4- The signal of 8GHz frequency range, noise temperature about 3K.It is measured with this, noise light subnumber is about 10, therefore most using commercial amplifiers The signal-to-noise ratio that can be obtained greatly is about 1.Best quantum parametric amplifier can achieve the noise level of standard quantum limit, Namely n=0.5.In general, n is fluctuated within 0.5-2.Therefore, usage amount subparameter amplifier can make the noise of system Than the promotion for having 5-20 times or so.
Although quantum parametric amplifier by way of greatly improving signal-to-noise ratio, is solved from so faint quantum bit The problem of extracting effective quantum state information in signal is read, but brings new problem.Existing quantum parameters amplification Device is worked based on non-linear frequency mixing principle, in order to effectively amplify quantum bit reading signal, so that quantum parameters are put The big device work pump signal close in the additional application frequency of optimal mode needs and frequency signal to be amplified or its frequency multiplication, example Such as corresponding pump signal applied close to it is signal to be amplified it is corresponding be four-wave mixing operating mode, the pump signal of application approaches Corresponding twice of frequency signal to be amplified is three wave mixing operating mode.
During existing quantum parameters amplifier operation, f signal to be amplified is inputtedsWith pump signal fp, signal to be amplified fsIn pump signal fpUnder the action of amplify, export signal to be amplified, while being based on non-linear frequency mixing principle, in output signal also Including various idler fi, f signal to be amplifieds, pump signal fpAnd idler fiBetween will meet formula: mfs+nfi =lfp, in which: m, n and l are integer, when m, n and l take different numerical value, obtain different idler fi.Existing quantum ginseng Measure amplifier at work, pump signal frequency must choose the frequency multiplication of amplified signal frequency, could obtain optimal amplification effect Fruit, such as when quantum parameter amplifier is in four-wave mixing operating mode, i.e. pump signal fpFrequency selection purposes are close to be amplified Signal fsFrequency, the f in idlerp、2fp-fs、2fs-fpBecause close to f signal to be amplifiedsAnd it influences signal to be amplified It obtains;When quantum parameter amplifier is in three wave mixing operating mode, i.e. pump signal fpFrequency selection purposes are to be amplified close to 2 times Signal fsFrequency, the 1/2f in idlerp、fp-fsBecause close to f signal to be amplifiedsAnd influence acquisition signal to be amplified.
Specifically, referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the embodiment of the present invention one provides a kind of quantum parameters amplifier, the quantum ginseng Amount amplifier includes sequentially connected for forming capacitance module 100,200 and of reflection type microwave resonant cavity of oscillator-amplification circuit The superconducting quantum interference device 300 of controllable impedance, 300 device of superconducting quantum interference device of the controllable impedance is far from described anti- Penetrate one end ground connection of type micro-wave resonant cavity 200;And the electricity of the superconducting quantum interference device 300 of the adjusting controllable impedance can be passed through Sense is so that the resonance frequency of the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 is equal to frequency signal to be amplified, in which: the letter to be amplified Number the oscillator-amplification circuit, work of the oscillator-amplification circuit in pump signal are coupled into from the capacitance module 100 It is described signal to be amplified with lower amplification, and several idler is generated,
It should be noted that according to non-linear frequency mixing principle, each mentioned above idler be all satisfied as Lower formula:
mfs+nfi=lfp
Wherein: m, n, l are integer, fsFor frequency signal to be amplified, fpFor pump signal frequency, fiFor idler frequency, As f signal to be amplifiedsWith pump signal fpWhen determining, m, n and l take different numerical value, will obtain various idler fi
Wherein, the capacitance module 100 is needed for being coupled into signal to be amplified in reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 It is noted that usual microwave cavity must connect composition microwave system with external circuit to work, it is necessary to by external circuit Microwave signal motivate and establish oscillation in chamber, and the oscillation in chamber must can be just output on extraneous load by coupling, It generallys use capacitance module to couple with microwave cavity foundation, interdigital capacitor, distribution can be selected in capacitance module 100 in the present embodiment Formula capacitor or run-in index capacitor, the present invention for capacitance module 100 concrete form with no restrictions.
It should be noted that oscillator-amplification circuit is the common structure of signal amplification sector, it is the pass of many electronic equipments Key member, the usual form of expression of oscillator-amplification circuit are LC oscillating circuit, and capacitor and inductance including interconnection, it both can be used In the signal for generating specific frequency, it is also used for isolating the signal of specific frequency from more complicated signal.It is led in quantum calculation Domain, the in order to obtain operation result of quantum chip, it would be desirable to which signal is read to signal, that is, quantum bit of quantum chip output It is acquired and analyzes, usual quantum bit reading signal is very faint, needs to carry out signal amplification, since quantum bit is read Signal belongs to high-frequency signal, and wavelength is very short, and the capacitor and inductor device-structure dimensions used due to the LC oscillating circuit of lump Larger and LC oscillating circuit energy is Dispersed precipitate in surrounding space, and dissipative velocity is very fast, therefore we must make With the quantum parameters amplifier for being applied to quantum regime.
In general, quantum parameters amplifier includes sequentially connected capacitor, microwave cavity, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and use In the magnetic flux bias set circuti of modulation superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is grounded far from one end of resonant cavity, Basic principle is as follows: using the exchange electric forming inductance generated in superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), LC oscillating circuit is constituted with capacitor, from And a single-mode field is constructed in microwave cavity, signal to be amplified and pump signal faint at this time enters device jointly In, it is signal to be amplified in microwave cavity to be amplified, while whole process is all in superconducting state, almost without dissipation.
Wherein: it should be noted that the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is the closed loop being made of several Josephson junction parallel connections Device, in which: Josephson junction is generally made of two pieces of superconductor folders with certain very thin barrier layer, such as S (superconductor)- I (semiconductor or insulator)-S (superconductor) structure, abbreviation SIS, in SIS, superelectron can be from one of superconductor Side tunnels through semiconductor or insulator reaches the superconductor or Josephson effect of the other side, and the electric current of generation is known as Josephson current just constitutes Josephson's interferometer when multiple Josephson junctions are joined together to form closed-loop device, Or superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID).
The quantum parameters amplifier further includes voltage modulation circuit 400;The voltage modulation circuit 400 is arranged described The superconducting quantum interference device 300 of controllable impedance is close to described 200 one end of reflection type microwave resonant cavity;The controllable impedance surpasses The oscillation is put under the action of leading the bias voltage that quantum inteferometer device 300 can be provided in the voltage modulation circuit 300 One of idler release generated in big circuit.
It should be noted that passing through the electricity of Josephson junction when applying voltage bias at superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) both ends Stream is the oscillation supercurrent an of alternation, and frequency of oscillation (or Josephson's frequency) will be directly proportional to the bias voltage, this So that Josephson junction has the ability of radiation or electromagnetic wave absorption, meet following relational expression:
2eV=hf
Wherein: h is Planck's constant.
Since the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) device being made of several Josephson junction parallel connections has the ability of electromagnetic wave absorption, When applying voltage bias on the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) device 300 in the controllable impedance, electric current library that Josephson ties Uncle is grounded outflow to the energy tunnelling Josephson junction that will absorb microwave signal, when selecting suitable voltage bias, so that closing It is the frequency that f is equal to one of idler that oscillator-amplification circuit generates in formula 2eV=hf, is generated in oscillator-amplification circuit The idler will be completely absorbed, show as the idler and be released.
It should be noted that workflow of the invention is as follows, by the superconductive quantum interference for adjusting the controllable impedance The inductance of instrument 300, so that the resonant frequency of operation of the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 is consistent with frequency signal to be amplified, So that signal to be amplified best in the 200 interior resonance amplification effect of reflection type microwave resonant cavity, by signal to be amplified and Pump signal is coupled into the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200, signal to be amplified to put under the action of pump signal It greatly, further include pump signal, half frequency pump signal, frequency multiplication pump it should be noted that not only including amplified signal in output signal Pu signal and various idlers, when applying suitable voltage bias at this time, so that meet relational expression 2eV=hf, wherein f etc. The idler generated in the frequency of a certain idler, the oscillator-amplification circuit will be completely absorbed, and be shown as The idler is released.
It should be noted that quantum parameters amplifier of the present invention is before operation, various parameters, including selection electricity need to be designed Pressure biasing size and pump signal frequency, final purpose of the invention first is that make output irrelevant signal in will not It is interfered to signal to be amplified, namely allows them to be split by filter, a kind of specific example is provided here, when wait put When big signal frequency is 4GHz, can design one of idler first is 2GHz, is calculated by relational expression 2eV=hf Voltage bias out, further according to formula mfs+nfi=lfpOne of possible pump signal frequency is calculated, for example, take m, N, when l is 1, selection pump signal frequency is 6GHz, at this point, further according to formula mfs+nfi=lfpConsider other possible spare time When frequency signal, it can be proved that work as m, when n and l take different numerical value, obtained idler fiIt will not be to f signal to be amplifiedsIt makes At interference.Following table gives when frequency signal to be amplified is 4GHz, pump signal frequency is 6GHz, generation with letter to be amplified Number fs8 kinds of closest idler f of frequencyi

As seen from the above table, generation with f signal to be amplifieds8 kinds of closest idler f of frequencyiWith letter to be amplified Number fsCertain distance is kept, then other idlers f generatediIt will not be to f signal to be amplifiedsIt interferes.
Traditional quantum parameters amplifier there is a further problem, when practical quantum chip operation, it would be desirable to simultaneously A large amount of quantum bit signal is read, the quantum state information of each quantum bit carries outflow, frequency by an independent signal Rate and the frequency of the quantum state information carrying signal of other quantum bits are different.Simultaneously read multiple quantum bits it is meant that Simultaneously have it is multiple carry the signal to be amplified of information, need by quantum parametric amplifier.Wherein each signal exists for they While obtaining amplification effect, a large amount of irrelevant signal can be all generated, and wherein at least one irrelevant signal is waited for itself The signal of amplification is close.In addition to this, the irrelevant signal of some generation signal to be amplified, it is likely that extraly wait putting with another The frequency of big signal is close.
Specifically, for example: inputting the f signal to be amplified of traditional quantum parameters amplifiersFrequency be respectively 6.4GHz With 6.58GHz (at a distance of 0.18GHz, filter is detachable), traditional quantum parameters amplifier pumping signal fpFrequency can set It is calculated as 6.5GHz, corresponds to four-wave mixing operating mode, then according to formula mfs+nfi=lfp, the amplified signal f of 6.4GHzs One of idler fiFor 6.6GHz, it will influence 6.58GHz signal (at a distance of 0.02GHz, being difficult to split).
And when using quantum parameters amplifier of the invention, by designing an idler, such as 4GHz, according to 4GHz Signal and 6.4GHz amplified signal fsDesign pump signal fpFor 5.2GHz and bias voltage, it is known that according to this The pump signal f of 5.2GHzpRespectively with the amplified signal f of 6.4GHz and 6.58GHzsSignal mixer action, obtained all ideler frequencies Signal fiWith the amplified signal f of 6.4GHz and 6.58GhzsKeep detachable distance.
Further, the superconducting quantum interference device 300 of the controllable impedance includes the Superconducting Quantum of Mutual Inductance Coupling connection Interferometer 310 and Flux modulation circuit 320, specifically may refer to Fig. 2;The superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) 310 is by several about plucked instrument The gloomy knot of the husband closed-loop device in parallel constituted;The Flux modulation circuit 320 is used for the magnetic flux by adjusting the closed-loop device And then adjust the inductance of the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) 310.
The Flux modulation circuit 320 includes sequentially connected Flux modulation line and the electric current dress for generating bias current It sets;Wherein: the Flux modulation line is used for transmission the bias current, and makes the bias current and the superconductive quantum interference 310 Mutual Inductance Coupling of instrument.
It should be noted that the current device for generating bias current can be current source or be successively to connect What is connect can provide the voltage source and resistance of the bias current, and the present invention is without restriction for the concrete form of current source.
Further, it is the coplanar of wavelength a quarter signal to be amplified that the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200, which is length, Waveguide microwave resonant cavity uses length for the co-planar waveguide microwave cavity of a quarter of wavelength signal to be amplified, due to four The electric field most strength of/mono- wavelength co-planar waveguide microwave cavity is located at close to one end of capacitance module 100, electric field the weakest point Positioned at one end close to the superconducting quantum interference device 300, output signal will couple most strength i.e. close to institute from close to signal One end output of capacitance module 100 is stated, and since the voltage modulation circuit 400 is connected to the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 electric field the weakest point, the DC voltage bias that voltage modulation circuit 400 exports is in the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 Microwave signal be nearly free from influence.
It should be noted that co-planar waveguide is prepared on three parallel metal foils of dielectric layer surface in microwave regime Film conduction band layer, wherein centrally located conduction band layer is used for transmission microwave signal, the conduction band layer of two sides is all connected to ground level, with one As the maximum difference of circuit be that co-planar waveguide is a kind of distributed circuit elements, capacitive/inductive/impedance/impedance equably edge Co-planar waveguide signal propagation direction distribution, co-planar waveguide propagate be TEM wave, along signal propagation direction, the impedance of waveguide Equal everywhere, because signal reflex may be not present, signal almost can nondestructively pass through;In addition, the not cut-off frequency of co-planar waveguide, And there is cutoff frequency in common lumped circuitry.For co-planar waveguide uniform for one section, most frequency ranges it is micro- Wave signal can transmit unblockedly, thus be called transmission line, i.e. coplanar waveguide transmission line.When the coplanar wave guide transmission of design Line has certain length, and constructs a capacitive node respectively at the both ends of coplanar waveguide transmission line, and microwave signal encounters node Back reflection forms resonance in this section of transmission line.
Preferably, coplanar waveguide transmission line can also be used in the Flux modulation line for being used for transmission the bias current.
Further, referring to Fig. 3, due to it is amplified it is signal to be amplified will be from the close of reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200 The side of capacitance module 100 is exported via the capacitance module 100, in order to which the signal to be amplified and output signal that will be inputted carries out Isolation, the quantum parameters amplifier further includes circulator 500, and the setting of circulator 500 is separate in the capacitance module 100 One end of the reflection type microwave resonant cavity 200.
