Quantum Adaptive Real-time Error Correction

A major focus of current quantum technology research is noise mitigation, whether through material improvements, decoupling strategies, or the design of noise-resistant quantum devices. Traditional non-adaptive methods struggle with unpredictable errors, such as solid-state defects, quantum information leakage, and correlated noise across qubits, limiting their efficiency. In the Quantum Adaptive Real-time Error Correction (QuARTEC) project, I will implement a novel approach that continuously monitors noise fluctuations and dynamically adjusts qubit control signals, optimizing quantum error correction (QEC) in real time. This builds upon my experience in real-time quantum feedback with single quantum bits (qubits).By employing adaptive real-time techniques, QuARTEC addresses the limitations of conventional methods, significantly enhancing the stability and scalability of quantum processors while relaxing demanding error correction thresholds. I will receive high-fidelity multi-qubit operation training from experts at MIT and the University of Regensburg. The training provided through QuARTEC, with support from the MSCA-PF, will equip me to pursue a leadership role in the quantum field, whether in academia or industry.The project will shift the burden of noise resilience from fragile quantum hardware to robust classical control systems. QuARTEC will leverage the synergy between quantum control, computation, and computer science to drive the next generation of quantum computing technologies.
