Title:     Quantum computational advantage and beyond


Abstract:

Quantum computational advantage is a milestone in quantum computing field, which states that a specific problem can be efficiently solved by a quantum machine while it’s intractable for all classical computers. In this talk, I will show how we realized this objective, by a step-by-step manner. In 2020, we built “Jiuzhang” quantum computer which shows a quantum computational advantage of 1014. After that, we focused on applications on “Jiuzhang”, and explore quantum nonlinear optics to implement room-temperature quantum computing based on photons.

Quantum nonlinear optics: towards room-temperature quantum computing

Quantum nonlinear optics is a new regime where the single photon response is nonlinear. This nonlinearity is necessary to realize room-temperature quantum computing using photons. In this case, we can throw away expensive refrigerator and sophisticated laser cooling, just a single chip with many qubits to run our task at room temperature under atmosphere envirment.
