Quantum computation with graphene nanoribbon

Abstract: We propose a scalable scheme to implement quantum computation in graphene nanoribbon. It is shown that electron or hole can be naturally localized in each zigzag region for a graphene nanoribbon with a sequence of Z-shaped structure without exploiting any confined gate. An onedimensional graphene quantum dots chain is formed in such graphene nanoribbon, where electron or hole spin can be encoded as qubits. The coupling interaction between neighboring graphene quantum dots is found to be always-on Heisenberg ty… Show more

“…In this paper, we propose an alternative approach in which the localized states can exist in the zigzag region of a Z-shaped GNR. And Guo et al [15] have proposed a scheme to implement quantum computation with GNR in which each confined zigzag region of the GNR was modeled as a two-level qubit. Compared with previous works to form localized states, the proposed architecture confines electrons without exploiting confined gates, which greatly decreases the complexity of the circuits and the additional uncontrollable noise [15].…”

Owing to the advantages of Z-shaped GNRs, this mass sensor has the potential to break through the limitation of frequency restriction and weigh particles down to the yoctogram.…”
