Title
Memristor Crossbar Design Framework for Quantum Computing
Abstract
Over the last years there has been significant progress in the development of quantum computers. It has been demonstrated that they can accelerate the solution of various problems exponentially compared to today's classical computers, harnessing the properties of superposition and entanglement, two resources that have no classical analog. Since quantum computer platforms that are currently available comprise only a few tenths of qubits, as well as the access to a fabricated quantum computer is time limited for the majority of researchers, the use of quantum simulators is essential in developing and testing new quantum algorithms. Taking inspiration from previous work on developing a novel quantum simulator based on memristor crossbar circuits, in this work, a framework that automates the circuit design of emulated quantum gates is presented. The proposed design framework deals with the generation and programming of memristor crossbar configuration that incorporates the desirable quantum circuit, leading to a technology agnostic design tool. To such a degree, various quantum gates can be efficiently emulated on memristor crossbar configurations for various types of memristive devices, aiming to assist and accelerate the fabrication process of a memristor based quantum simulator.
