Abstract

Quantum system calibration is limited by the ability to characterize a quantum state under unknown device errors. We develop an accurate calibration protocol that is blind to the precise preparation of a specific quantum state. It extracts device errors from simple tomographic data only, and does not require bespoke experiments for a priori specified error mechanisms. Using a trapped-ion quantum computer, we experimentally demonstrate the accuracy of the method by recovering intentional miscalibrations. We then use blind calibration to estimate the native calibration parameters of the experimental system. The recovered calibrations are close to directly measured values and perform similarly in predicting state properties.
