Fixing Quantum Errors with Quantum Tricks: A Brief Introduction to Quantum Error Correction - Part 1
Offered By: NPTEL-NOC IITM via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fundamentals of Quantum Error Correction (QEC) in this introductory lecture. Delve into the challenges of the NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) era and understand the concept of decoherence. Compare and contrast noise in classical and quantum systems, with a focus on quantum bit-flip noise. Examine the classical 3-bit code as a precursor to quantum error correction techniques. Learn about coherence times in superconducting qubits and gain insights into the development of scalable quantum devices. Discover how quantum tricks can be employed to mitigate errors and improve the reliability of quantum computations.
