Wanningen, Nicky (author)For scaling up the qubits in silicon quantum computers, it is vital to determine crosstalk effects that can lower the fidelity of the computer. <br/>In this computational project, we examine single-qubit gate-fidelities in the presence of crosstalk for uncoupled spin qubits that are driven with X-gates via electron dipole spin resonance (EDSR)....bachelor thesis 2022

van Loevezijn, Wout (author)Benchmarks for quantum network systems currently are an underrepresented subject in the research field. This paper evaluates how informative a distributed CNOT gate application is, in recognizing errors in the total quantum system. The goal is to decide whether it should be included as a benchmark in a newly developed benchmark suite for quantum...bachelor thesis 2023

Driebergen, Tim (author)Currently there are no efficient quantum algorithms for the addition of real-valued numbers. In classical computers addition is performed by using barrel shifters, a concept proven to be very inefficient as a quantum circuit due to its many garbage outputs when the barrel shifter is made reversible. This thesis aims to design a quantum algorithm...bachelor thesis 2019

van der Enden, Kian (author)For quantum computing with superconducting qubits, fabricating transmon qubits with increased coherence time is crucial, especially in view of multi-qubit quantum processors. The fabrication process, geometries and materials used to fabricate a transmon qubit are similar to the fabrication of CPW resonators. However, due to shorter fabrication...bachelor thesis 2014

Dekeling, Casper (author)In the development of any new technology, it is essential to have methods to assess the quality of a system, to compare different systems to one another, and to compare different versions of the same system, to see if changes to the system can actually be classified as improvements. For quantum networks, this is no different. To further develop...bachelor thesis 2023

Diephuis, S. (author)Topos theory and quantum mechanics are both known for having a logic that is different from ordinary logic. With this in mind, much work has been done on unifying these two fields. Loveridge, Dridi and Raussendorf apply this unification to measurement-based quantum computation [14], revealing links between computation, contextuality and the...bachelor thesis 2020

Van Gulik, R.J.J. (author)In this report an overview of the techniques used to perform measurements on a Josephson radiation detector is given. This experiment could lead to the observation of Majorana bound states, which can be used to realize a topological quantum computer. Software for the plotting of data from one- and two-variable measurements was developed, with...bachelor thesis 2016

Looman, Menno (author)In this project, an positive integer addition algorithm for quantum computing is analyzed which does not makes use of carry bits. The paper shows a general parallelization method. Using this method, the circuit runs in O(n) time instead of O(n^2). The algorithm is executed with different input sizes and error rates such that usable values are...bachelor thesis 2018

Bharos, Niveda (author)Many applications of quantum communication require a high amount of entanglement between the states of two separated parties, for example quantum teleportation or superdense coding. However, when states are locally entangled and then separated, errors arise during transportation of the qubits. This results in a lower amount of entanglement...bachelor thesis 2021

Jansen, S.E.D. (author)This thesis deals with n-to-1 entanglement distillation protocols for bipartite quantum systems in a group theoretical setting. The local operations in the protocols are restricted to Clifford operations. An efficient representation of the elements of the Clifford group in terms of binary matrices is presented. Moreover, a characterization of...bachelor thesis 2020

van der Lans, Mike (author)Quantum computation is becoming an increasingly interesting field, especially with the rise of real quantum computers. However, current quantum processors contain a few tens of error-prone qubits and the realization of large-scale quantum computers is still very challenging. Therefore, quantum computer simulators are particularly suitable for...bachelor thesis 2018

Leijenhorst, Nando (author)Quantum error correction is needed for future quantum computers. Classical error correcting codes are not suitable for this due to the nature of quantum mechanics. Therefore, new codes need to be developed. A promising candidate is the toric code, a surface code, because of its locality and its high error correcting capability and thresholds ...bachelor thesis 2019
