Exploring Ququart Computation on a Transmon using Optimal Control [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Contemporary quantum computers encode and process quantum information in binary qubits (d = 2). However, many architectures include higher energy levels that are left as unused computational resources. We demonstrate a superconducting ququart (d = 4) processor and combine quantum optimal control with efficient gate decompositions to implement high-fidelity ququart gates. We distinguish between viewing the ququart as a generalized four-level qubit and an encoded pair of qubits, and characterize the resulting gates in each case. In randomized benchmarking experiments we observe gate fidelities greater 95% and identify coherence as the primary limiting factor. Our results validate ququarts as a viable tool for quantum information processing.
