This Defense Intelligence Reference Document from the Defense Intelligence Agency, dated 10 December 2010, is one of a series of advanced technology reports produced in FY 2010 under the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications (AAWSA) Program. It reviews quantum computing technologies and DNA-based molecular computing for onboard supercomputing on future spacecraft. It forecasts ion-trap quantum computers within 10 years, simple DNA tile computing within 20 years, and self-repairing DNA computers on a 40-year horizon.
UNCLASSIFIED,,l"el'l Cl"l"lelillt t,.Jt CHE, By means of Klein tunneling, two distant qubits can be strongly coupled without touching the states of intermediate qubits that might be located between the two. Thus, a ribbon of graphene hosting many spin qubits in a line can be viewed as a qubit piano where any two of them can be entangled with leaving the states of the others unchanged; see Figure 7. Interestingly, this feature, i.e., the availability of non-local interactions, is important for quantum error correction since it raises the threshold for fault-tolerant quantum computing (72). Figure 7. Qubit piano. Illustration of many spin qubits in a line hosted within a graphene nanoribbon. Quantum dots are red bars and barrier regions are blue bars. Different spin qubits that are strongly coupled to each other via Klein tunneling are marked with the same color. V V \I_ A I\Figure 8. Long distance coupling of three graphene qubits. Spin Relaxation and De-phasing in Graphene Quantum Dots Why can we expect stable spin qubits in graphene quantum dots? There is hope that spin relaxation and dephasing will be very weak in graphene for the following reasons: (i) Carbon 19 UNCLASSIFIED/ ,'f81t 8fflliii.t1k Wliilii Qalk¥
