Benchmarking Rydberg quantum computers

The Rydberg platform has shown to be a promising candidate for scalable quantum computing. Features such as a dynamically reconfigurable qubit connectivity and multi-qubit gates provide new opportunities. For analyzing the functionality of Rydberg setups and evaluating their suitability for applications, quantitative benchmarks have to be established.

The BeRyQC Project

We are coordinating the BeRyQC consortium that brings together expertise from different German universities to establish a standard for benchmarking the Rydberg platform. Associated partners from industry support us in developing benchmarks relevant to practical applications. A major focus is on benchmarks that probe non-trivial functionality of quantum computers, which is essential for delivering quantum advantage. For example, the amount of quantum entanglement and the scaling of the entanglement with the system size are crucial measures.

Our results will help users to find suitable Rydberg platforms for their applications, and help developers of quantum computers to prioritize features important to applications.
