Quantum interactions are strikingly different from their classical counterparts, and they lead to counter-intuitive effects such as quantum entanglement. The advances in quantum science and technology over the past two decades have shown that such interactions can be harnessed in quantum devices to address hard computational problems. The field of quantum computation has emerged, and superconducting circuits have become a leading platform for quantum processors. Because of the large design space and the difficulty to simulate design prototypes on a classical computer, a key challenge in quantum processor engineering is to translate desired quantum characteristics into a circuit design. A particular obstacle has been the implementation of interactions between multiple quantum bits (qubits) in one coupling mechanism. Multi-qubit interactions are necessary for a number of applications in quantum annealing, analog quantum simulation, and digital quantum computation. In this work, we develop classical and quantum computational methods to address the challenge of implementing such interactions. We present a computational method for automated design of superconducting circuits. Our method performs a parallelized, closed-loop optimization to design superconducting circuit diagrams that match predefined properties, such as dispersion features and noise sensitivities. We employ it to design a coupler for superconducting flux qubits that mediates 4-qubit interactions. The coupler circuit is then realized experimentally. We find that it has the desired ground state dispersion properties versus flux and that it does not adversely affect the lifetime of a connected flux qubit. Moreover, the coupling concept can be extended by systematically adding loops to the coupler. In a second iteration, we implement a circuit architecture in which the coupler mediates interactions between three flux qubits. The system Hamiltonian is estimated via multi-qubit pulse sequences that implement Ramsey-type interferometry between all neighboring excitation manifolds. We verify that the multi-qubit system exhibits a 3-qubit coupling that is coherently tunable, which is important for practical applications. Finally, we address the challenge that complex multi-qubit circuits are difficult to simulate accurately on a classical computer as they become larger. As a solution, we propose quantum algorithms to design and test the performance of next-generation quantum hardware on a quantum computer. We have therefore addressed the challenge of quantum device design both from a classical optimization and from a quantum computational angle.
