Entanglement is the key resource for measurement-based quantum computing. It is stored in quantum states known as cluster states, which are prepared offline and enable quantum computing by means of purely local measurements. Universal quantum computing requires cluster states that are both large and possess (at least) a two-dimensional topology. Continuous-variable cluster states—based on bosonic modes rather than qubits—have previously been generated on a scale exceeding one million modes, but only in one dimension. Here, we report generation of a large-scale two-dimensional continuous-variable cluster state. Its structure consists of a 5- by 1240-site square lattice that was tailored to our highly scalable time-multiplexed experimental platform. It is compatible with Bosonic error-correcting codes that, with higher squeezing, enable fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Measurement-based quantum computing (MBQC) is a promising alternative to traditional circuit-based quantum computing predicated on the construction and measurement of cluster states. Recent work has demonstrated that MBQC provides a more general framework for fault-tolerance that extends beyond foliated quantum error-correcting codes. We systematically expand on that paradigm, and use combinatorial tiling theory to study and construct new examples of fault-tolerant cluster states derived from crystal structures. Included among these is a robust self-dual cluster state requiring only degree-3 connectivity. We benchmark several of these cluster states in the presence of circuit-level noise, and find a variety of promising candidates whose performance depends on the specifics of the noise model. By eschewing the distinction between data and ancilla, this malleable framework lays a foundation for the development of creative and competitive fault-tolerance schemes beyond conventional error-correcting codes.
