Abstract
We design composite controlled-phase gates, which compensate errors in the phase of a single gate. The errors can be of various natures, such as relative, absolute, or both. We present composite sequences which are robust to relative errors up to the sixth order with the number of the constituent gates growing just linearly with the desired accuracy, and we describe a method to achieve even higher accuracy. We show that the absolute error can be canceled entirely with only two gates. We describe an ion-trap implementation of our composite gates in which simultaneous cancellation of the error in both the pulse area and the detuning is achieved.
