a, Parameterized time-optimal CZ gates are implemented on 20 atoms in parallel. b, Raw Bell-state measurements on application of a single CZ gate, with raw Bell-state fidelity of 98.0(2)%. We estimate a SPAM-corrected fidelity of 99.4(4)% (not plotted; see Methods for details). c, Circuit used to benchmark two-qubit gate fidelity by making a Bell state after an odd number of CZ gates interleaved with single-qubit X gates. d, Decay of Bell-state fidelity after applying a variable number of CZ gates. A fidelity of 99.52(4)% per CZ gate is extracted from an exponential fit. The y axis is rescaled by a SPAM correction factor that does not affect the extracted gate fidelity (Methods). Note that the same number of single-qubit gates is performed for each point, so that no normalization of single-qubit errors is necessary, which thereby results in a reduced y-axis intercept. Error bars represent 68% confidence intervals.
