Measurement-based topological quantum computing in superconductor-semiconductor tetrons
Emily Toomey (Microsoft)
Scalability remains one of the key technological challenges to achieving a largescale fault tolerant quantum computer. While many frameworks have been proposed, measurement-based topological quantum computation offers several appealing advantages, including less susceptibility to local noise through the physical separation between Majorana zero modes (MZMs), and possessing native Pauli operations rather than relying on sequences of Clifford gates to create them. In this talk, we present a roadmap to achieving a topological fault tolerant quantum computer using a scheme based on tetrons in a superconductor-semiconductor heterostructure, with a focus on recent results of single-shot interferometric readout of a single tetron device. We also discuss the principles behind designing a system to support the readout and control of topological qubits for measurement-based computation.
