US Patent Issued to Quantinuum on Oct. 27 for "Laser-free single qubit gate" (Texas Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 27 -- United States Patent no. 12,775,864, issued on Oct. 27, was assigned to Quantinuum LLC (Broomfield, Colo.).

"Laser-free single qubit gate" was invented by Robert Tyler Sutherland (San Antonio).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A controller of a quantum system causes performance of a single qubit gate on a target qubit. The controller causes a dressing field circuit to generate a dressing field at a target location where the target qubit is located. The dressing field modifies a set of initial states into a set of superposition states. A first (second) dressed state of the set of superposition states includes a non-zero contribution from a first (second) qubit state of ...
