Simulation of Electrolytic DNA Chemistry on Noisy Quantum Devices

ORAL

Abstract

In this work we present our results of the simulation on a noisy quantum device, focusing on a recent experiment in which alloxazine substitutes for a base (thymine) enabling an electrochemical reaction that serves as a tunable "switch". We propose an algorithm for the Trotterization of the open system dynamics governed by the Lindblad equation and calculate the non-equilibrium steady state transport and energy of the reaction. We further compute the zero noise steady state current using error extrapolation. Our results demonstrate the ability of the Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum(NISQ) devices to simulate open quantum systems.
