Google Willow: Two-qubit gate fidelity
99.86% %
As stated in the source: “0.14% ± 0.052% two-qubit gate error (iSWAP-like), mean, simultaneous”
Uncertainty: 99.808 to 99.912 (converted from the stated error and its uncertainty).
Caveats
This is an error, not a fidelity. Different gate type (iSWAP-like) and a different chip from the CZ figure on Chip 1, so the two are not directly comparable. Vendor-reported. Converted from the stated mean error of 0.14% ± 0.052%.
- Set-up
- iSWAP-like gates, mean across device, all gates operated simultaneously.
- Method
- Randomized benchmarking, reported as average error
