Abstract

How to effectively construct robust quantum gates for time-varying noise is a very important but still outstanding problem. Here we develop a systematic method to find pulses for quantum gate operations robust against both low- and high-frequency (comparable to the qubit transition frequency) stochastic time-varying noise. Our approach, taking into account the noise properties of quantum computing systems, can output single smooth pulses in the presence of multisources of noise. Furthermore, our method can be applied to different system models and noise models and will make essential steps toward constructing high-fidelity and robust quantum gates for fault-tolerant quantum computation. Finally, we discuss and compare the gate operation performance by our method with that by the filter-transfer-function method.
