- Fault-tolerant quantum computing requires many qubits with long lifetimes and accurate quantum gate operations. However, external noise limits the computing time and hampers accurate quantum gate operations. Quantum error correction (QEC) codes may extend such limits, but imperfect gate operations during QEC cause errors, which could cancel out QEC. We used density matrix simulations to examine the performance of QEC codes with five qubits. In current quantum devices, less than ten qubits are needed to conduct sufficient gate operations within their lifetime so that it is feasible to implement QEC codes. We analyzed the maximum tolerable error rate and error correction effect of individual QEC codes according to the qubit arrangement and gate accuracy. Assuming a 0.1% gate error probability, a logical |1> state encoded by a five-qubit QEC code is expected to have a 0.25 higher fidelity than its physical counterpart.
