DTU's photonic
quantum computing platform

We develop a scalable photonic QC platform using

  • continuous-variable measurement-based scheme (CV-MBQC)
  • squeezed states of light
  • fibre-optical linear networks
  • homodyne detection
  • Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) qubits
  • GKP + surface code error correction

standard gate model

measurement-based or one-way QC

circuits implemented by sequential measurements on a massively entangled cluster state

Continuous-variable MBQC

squeezed states

beam splitters

homodyne detection

time-multiplexed

reuse resources
        over and over

scales well!
