US Patent Issued to Amazon Technologies on Feb. 17 for "Quantum gate protocol for the execution of spin locking onto superconducting qubit architectures" (California Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 17 -- United States Patent no. 12,555,014, issued on Feb. 17, was assigned to Amazon Technologies Inc. (Seattle).

"Quantum gate protocol for the execution of spin locking onto superconducting qubit architectures" was invented by Alex Retzker (Pasadena, Calif.) and Amit Rotem (Pasadena, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A system and method for inducing spin locking onto superconducting qubits, via a control drive, during performance of a quantum gate between the superconducting qubits is described. Spin locking may prolong the coherence times of the superconducting qubits involved in the gate, therefore reducing the risk that a fault occurs due to interference by nois...
