Quantum error correction is a key challenge for the development of practical quantum computers, a direction in which significant experimental progress has been made in recent years. In solid-state qubits, one of the leading information loss mechanisms is dephasing, usually modelled by phase flip errors.
In this talk, I will introduce quasi-static phase damping, a more subtle error model which describes the effect of Larmor frequency fluctuations due to 1/f noise. I will show how this model is different from a simple phase flip error model, in terms of repeated syndrome measurements.
Considering the surface code, I will provide numerical evidence for an error threshold, in the presence of quasi-static phase damping and readout errors. I will also discuss the implications of our results for spin qubits and superconducting qubits.
