ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 20 -- United States Patent no. 12,530,610, issued on Jan. 20, was assigned to UNIVERSITY OF SURREY (Guildford, Great Britain).

"Robust quantum computing" was invented by Nguyen Le (Camberley, Great Britain), Eran Ginossar (Fleet Guildford, Great Britain) and Max Cykiert (Guildford, Great Britain).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Robust optimal control techniques are provided that may shape driving pulses such that the gates are realised with high fidelity despite experimental uncertainty in all or some of the physical parameters of the qubits, drives, qubit-qubit coupling, and qubit-drive coupling. For example, a method for controlling a quantum system comprising a pluralit...
