Three-qubit QEC and silicon-based three-qubit device. a. Outline of the three-qubit phase-flip quantum error correcting code. The two-qubit CNOT gates entangle the three qubits, then the Hadamard (H) gates rotate the qubit basis for phase-flip errors. The decoding is the inverse of the encoding. Finally, the correction is performed by a three-qubit Toffoli gate. b. Scanning electron microscope image of the device. Scale bar, 100 nm. The screening gates (brown) are used to restrict the electric field of the plunger (green) and barrier (purple) gates. The three circles (red, green and blue) indicate the position of the triple-quantum-dot array. A further quantum dot shown as the gray circle is used as a charge sensor...Read More
