Description
Summary:Active reset of qubits is a crucial step in achieving quantum algorithms, particularly in fault-tolerant quantum computing, as it allows qubits to be quickly initialized to the ground state. In this paper, we demonstrate active reset of superconducting qubits using the feedback electronics based on RF switches. We are able to reset the qubit to the ground state in 11.412 µs with a success rate of 99.82%, which is better than the natural relaxation method in terms of both time consumption (180 µs) and success rate (99.61%). The demonstrated method facilitates fast and high-fidelity qubit initialization, holding practical significance for large-scale quantum computation.
