Fully Scalable Randomized Benchmarking Without Motion Reversal

We introduce , a protocol that streamlines traditional RB by using circuits consisting almost entirely of independent identically distributed (IID) layers of gates. BiRB reliably and efficiently extracts the average error rate of a Clifford gate set by sending tensor-product eigenstates of random Pauli operators through random circuits with IID layers. Unlike existing RB methods, BiRB does not use motion reversal circuits—i.e., circuits that implement the identity (or a Pauli) operator—which simplifies both the method and the theory proving its reliability. Furthermore, this simplicity enables scaling BiRB to many more qubits than the most widely used RB methods.
