Abstract
The present work evaluates the feasibility of quantum computing with exciton qubits in coupled colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). A strategy for manipulating two-qubit states of colloidal NC hetero-dimers is described. We show that a sequence of laser pulses with the same photon energy can bring excitonic states of a nanocrystal hetero-dimer into entanglement and perform arbitrary qubit rotations (quantum gates). Our simulations of a realistic two-particle assembly of CdSe/CdS core/shell NCs demonstrate that such two-qubit gate operations can be driven by optical parametric oscillators with a theoretical error of 0.1%. A strategy for upscaling two-qubit hetero-dimers to N-qubit exciton gates in semiconductor NC assemblies is discussed.
