Abstract
Global control strategies for arrays of qubits are a promising pathway to scalable quantum computing. A continuous-wave global field provides decoupling of the qubits from background noise. However, this approach is limited by variability in the parameters of individual qubits in the array. Here we show that by modulating a global field simultaneously applied to the entire array, we are able to encode qubits that are less sensitive to the statistical scatter in qubit resonance frequency and microwave amplitude fluctuations, which are problems expected in a large scale system. We name this approach the SMART (Sinusoidally Modulated, Always Rotating and Tailored) qubit protocol. We show that there exist optimal modulation conditions for qubits in a global field that robustly provide improved coherence times. We discuss in further detail the example of spins in silicon quantum dots, in which universal one- and two-qubit control is achieved electrically by controlling the spin-orbit coupling of individual qubits and the exchange coupling between spins in neighbouring dots. This work provides a high-fidelity qubit operation scheme in a global field, significantly improving the prospects for scalability of spin-based quantum computer architectures.
