Symmetry-Protected Quantum Computing using Metamaterials

摘要

We propose a new architecture for practical quantum computing that combines three established principles: symmetry protection of relative-motion qubits via the generalized Kohn theorem, control via twisted-light orbital angular momentum, and metamaterial nanofocusing (e.g. using Weyl-semimetal plasmonics). Crucially, the core mechanism is generic: it applies to any current or future quantum computing system involving parabolic confinement, including cold atoms, ions, and semiconductor dots.
