QLU

Overview #

QLU is QPerfect’s fault-tolerant quantum middleware, a real-time system that compiles, optimizes, and error-corrects quantum circuits for execution on neutral atom quantum processors. It connects high-level quantum algorithms to the physical constraints of real hardware.

As CTO, I lead the architecture and development of QLU, building on QPerfect’s expertise in quantum simulation and neutral atom physics.

Core Capabilities #

  • Fault-tolerant compiler: Compiles logical quantum circuits into fault-tolerant physical circuits with quantum error correction, magic state distillation, and loss detection. Supports QLDPC codes and surface codes.
  • Hardware-specific optimization: Tailors circuit execution for neutral atom QPUs with zoned architectures, native gate sets (RX, RZ, CZ), atom movement scheduling, and continuous atom reloading.
  • Real-time error decoder: On-the-fly quantum error correction decoding for continuous fault-tolerant operation during circuit execution.
  • Secure cloud QDK: Quantum Development Kit with secure cloud access for remote circuit design, compilation, and execution management.

Hardware Co-design #

Several aspects of QLU are inspired by a close collaboration with aQCess, France’s first public neutral-atom quantum computing platform at the University of Strasbourg.

Synergy with MIMIQ #

MIMIQ functions as a basis for QLU, since it already provides a formalism to represent and manipulate quantum operations.
