Candidate for a self-correcting quantum memory in two dimensions
An interesting problem in the field of quantum error correction involves finding a physical system that hosts a “self-correcting quantum memory,” defined as an encoded qubit coupled to an environment that naturally wants to correct errors. To date, a quantum memory stable against finite-temperature effects is only known in four spatial dimensions or higher. Here, we take a different approach to realize a stable quantum memory by relying on a driven-dissipative environment.
