Реферат: A solid-state quantum computing structure includes a set of islands (120) that Josephson junctions (130) separate from a first superconducting bank (110). A d-wave superconductor is on one side of the Josephson junctions and an s-wave superconductor forms the other side of the Josephson junctions. These quantum states of the supercurrents at the junctions create qubits for quantum computing. The quantum states can be uniformly initialized from the bank, and the crystal orientations of the islands relative to the bank influence the initial quantum state and tunneling probabilities between the ground states. A second bank (810), which a Josephson junction (830) separates from the first bank (110), can be coupled to the islands (120) through single electron transistors (840) for selectably initializing one or more of the supercurrents in a different quantum state. Single electron transistors (750) can also be between the islands to control entanglements while the quantum states evolve. After the quantum states have evolved to complete a calculation, grounding the islands, for example, through yet another set of single electron transistors (640), fixes the junctions in states having definite magnetic moments and facilitates measurement of the supercurrent when determining a result of the quantum computing.
