Claim 0:
1. A quantum computing system comprising:
a quantum control system configured for generating microwave signals upconverted to optical frequencies;
at least one optical fiber coupled to the quantum control system for carrying the up-converted microwave signals; and
a quantum processor disposed inside a cryogenics apparatus and coupled to the at least one optical fiber for receipt of the up-converted microwave signals, the quantum processor comprising:
at least one optical-to-microwave converter comprising photonic elements and configured for down-converting the up-converted microwave signals; and
a plurality of solid-state quantum circuit elements comprising qubits and coupled to the at least one optical-to-microwave converter and addressable by respective ones of the down-converted microwave signals;, wherein the quantum processor is a multi-chip quantum processor in which the qubits and photonic elements are integrated in three-dimensions.
