Quantum Simulation Of Open Electronic Systems Using Mid-Circuit Measurements For Fermionic Dynamics

Quantum Simulations of New Materials for the 21st Century

We are surrounded by a multiplicity of materials, from metals and alloys to crystals, glasses, and ceramics; from polymers and plastics to organic and living-derived substances; and let’s not forget natural materials like stone and exotic materials like aerogel. The amazing thing to me is that all these materials are formed from different combinations of the same small group of elements. For example, while living organisms and other objects can …

Quantum Simulation Of Open Electronic Systems Using Mid-Circuit Measurements For Fermionic Dynamics

A novel method for simulating open electronic systems on quantum computers employs mid-circuit measurements and resets to enable fermion addition/removal and non-reversible operations, successfully modeling a fermionic chain between conductive leads.
