Rotated Surface Code Examples ============================== Simple noiseless memory experiment ----------------------------------- We provide a simple example of a noiseless memory experiment using a distance-3 rotated surface code. The experiment initializes the logical qubit in different states, performs syndrome measurements, and finally measures the logical qubit. The final circuits are then simulated using Stim to validate that the logical qubit behaves as expected. .. code-block:: python # Initialize block rsc_block_1 = RotatedSurfaceCode.create(3, 3, lattice, unique_label="rsc_block_1") states_list = ["1", "0", "+", "-"] logicals_names = ["Z_L", "Z_L", "X_L", "X_L"] # Create four circuits, each with a different logical state initialized interpreted_circ_list = [] for state in states_list: operations = ( ( # Encode pt1: Reset all data qubits ResetAllDataQubits(rsc_block_1.unique_label, state=state), ), ( # Encode pt2: Encode data qubits via measurements MeasureBlockSyndromes(rsc_block_1.unique_label, n_cycles=1), ), ( # Syndromes: Information collection # (not technically necessary in a noiseless experiment) MeasureBlockSyndromes(rsc_block_1.unique_label, n_cycles=2), ), ( # Measure logicals MeasureLogicalZ(rsc_block_1.unique_label) if state in ["0", "1"] else MeasureLogicalX(rsc_block_1.unique_label), ), ) eka_obj = Eka(lattice, blocks=[rsc_block_1], operations=operations) interpreted = interpret_eka(eka_obj) interpreted_circ_list.append(interpreted) from loom.executor import EkaToStimConverter import numpy as np # STIM settings stim_nsamples = 1000 converter = EkaToStimConverter() for index, interpreted in enumerate(interpreted_circ_list): # Convert interpreted Eka circuit to Stim circuit stim_circ = converter.convert(interpreted) # Sample the Stim circuit sampler = stim_circ.compile_sampler() samples = sampler.sample(shots=stim_nsamples) # Get logical counts output = {} for stim_obs in range(1, stim_circ.num_observables + 1): obs_instr = stim_circ[-stim_obs] meas_indices = [rec.value for rec in obs_instr.targets_copy()] obs_samples = np.bitwise_xor.reduce(samples[:, meas_indices], axis=1) # Get counts unique_el, counts = np.unique(obs_samples, return_counts=True) output[stim_obs] = {"0": 0, "1": 0} for i in range(len(unique_el)): output[stim_obs][str(int(unique_el[i]))] = counts[i].item() # Print output for each circuit for key, value in output.items(): print(f"Circuit{index + 1} {logicals_names[index]}: {value}") # Get detector flips det_samples_list = [] for stim_det in range(1, stim_circ.num_detectors + 1): det_instr = stim_circ[-stim_det - stim_circ.num_observables] meas_indices = [rec.value for rec in det_instr.targets_copy()] det_samples = np.bitwise_xor.reduce(samples[:, meas_indices], axis=1) det_samples_list.append(sum(det_samples)) # Print unique detector flips print("Detector flips: ", sum(det_samples_list)) print() ## Expected output: # Circuit1 Z_L: {'0': 0, '1': 1000} # Detector flips: 0 # # Circuit2 Z_L: {'0': 1000, '1': 0} # Detector flips: 0 # # Circuit3 X_L: {'0': 1000, '1': 0} # Detector flips: 0 # # Circuit4 X_L: {'0': 0, '1': 1000} # Detector flips: 0 Simple noisy memory experiment ----------------------------------- We adapt the Eka circuit from the previous section to provide an example of a noisy memory experiment. We will apply varying levels of noise to the circuit using Stim to validate that the logical qubit is able to correct errors up to its threshold. We will use the PyMatching package to decode the detector outcomes, and use MatPlotLib to plot the logical error rate as a function of physical error rate. .. code-block:: python from loom.executor import noise_annotated_stim_circuit import pymatching as pym stim_nsamples = 1_000_000 noise_rates = [10 ** (i) for i in np.linspace(-3.5, -2, 5)] converter = EkaToStimConverter() circuit_lers_list = [[], [], [], []] for cir_index, interpreted in enumerate(interpreted_circ_list): stim_circ = converter.convert(interpreted, with_ticks=True) for noise in noise_rates: stim_circ_noise = noise_annotated_stim_circuit(stim_circ, after_clifford_depolarization=noise) # Create detector error model and matching graph dem = stim_circ_noise.detector_error_model(decompose_errors=True) matching_graph = pym.Matching.from_detector_error_model(dem) # Sample the Stim circuit det_sampler = stim_circ_noise.compile_detector_sampler() samples, actual_log = det_sampler.sample(shots=stim_nsamples, separate_observables=True) predicted_log = matching_graph.decode_batch(samples) ler_stim = sum(pred != act for pred, act in zip(predicted_log, actual_log)) / len( actual_log ) circuit_lers_list[cir_index].append(ler_stim) ## Plot results using MatPlotLib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig, ax = plt.subplots(nrows=2, ncols=2, sharex=True, sharey=True, figsize=(8, 6)) fig.suptitle("Logical Error Rate vs Noise Rate for Surface Code Blocks") fig.supxlabel("Noise Rate") fig.supylabel("Logical Error Rate (LER)") for i, row in enumerate(ax): for j, col in enumerate(row): col.plot( noise_rates, circuit_lers_list[i], marker="o", linestyle="-", label="LER", ) col.plot( noise_rates, noise_rates, marker="x", linestyle="-", label="y=x", color="lightblue", alpha=0.5, ) col.set_title(f"|{states_list[2 * i + j]}>_L") col.set_xscale("log") col.set_yscale("log") col.grid(linestyle="--", linewidth=0.5) col.legend() fig.tight_layout() plt.show() .. figure:: ../../../_static/code_factories_rsc_error_rate.png :width: 760 :align: center Simple noiseless bell state experiment -------------------------------------- We provide a simple example of how to initialize a logical bell state using lattice surgery operations on a distance-3 rotated surface code block. The experiment grows and splits the block into two while performing syndrome measurements, before finally measuring the logical qubits in the X and Z basis.
