Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 17:
18. A method of performing a Floquet code on a quantum processor, the method comprising:
assigning, using a classical processor, a plurality of Majorana-based qubits to plaquettes, the Majorana-based qubits being arranged in qubit columns, and semiconductor columns of a gateable semiconductor device being arranged between the respective qubit columns to perform check measurements on the plurality of Majorana-based qubits;
identifying, using the classical processor, a bulk portion of the plurality of Majorana-based qubits and corresponding plaquettes with a bulk code of the Floquet code;
performing, using the classical processor, a sequence of steps of the bulk code on the bulk portion, each step comprising check measurements on qubits in the bulk portion that are performed by controlling a gateable semiconductor device to form connections between respective qubits in the bulk portion; and
detecting, using the classical processor, errors based on results of the check measurements a quantum processor comprising.
