Quantum Processor And Its Use For Implementing A Neural Network
A quantum processor comprises a first set of qubits comprising a first plurality of substantially parallel qubits; a second set of qubits comprising N successive groups of a plurality of qubits (1, 2, . . . , N), wherein N is greater than or equal to two; wherein each group of qubits comprises a plurality of substantially parallel qubits; wherein each qubit of the first plurality of substantially parallel qubits of the first set of qubits crosses substantially perpendicularly a portion of the plurality of substantially parallel qubits of a first group of the second set of qubits; wherein each qubit of any given group of the second set of qubits crosses substantially perpendicularly a portion of the plurality of substantially parallel qubits of a successive group of the second set of qubits and a plurality of couplers, each coupler for providing a communicative coupling at a crossing of two qubits.
Claim CLM-00001. 1. A quantum processor comprising:
a first group of substantially parallel superconducting quantum circuits; a second group of substantially parallel superconducting quantum circuits, wherein the second group is substantially perpendicular to the first group; and a third group of substantially parallel superconducting quantum circuits, wherein the third group is substantially perpendicular to the second group; wherein the quantum processor has a non-overlapping layout, such that: each superconducting quantum circuits of tire first group is sized and shaped so that it crosses only the second group, each superconducting quantum circuit of the second group is sized and shaped so that it crosses only the first group and the third group, and each superconducting quantum circuits of the third group is sized and shaped so that it crosses only the second group and a successive group of parallel superconducting quantum circuits which is perpendicular to the third group.
