Yoked surface codes
Abstract
We nearly triple the number of logical qubits per physical qubit of surface codes in the teraquop regime by concatenating them into high-density parity check codes. These "yoked surface codes" are arrayed in a rectangular grid, with parity checks (yokes) measured along each row, and optionally along each column, using lattice surgery. Our construction assumes no additional connectivity beyond a nearest neighbor square qubit grid operating at a physical error rate of 10-3.
