Abstract
Dissipatively stabilized cat qubits provide a promising route toward fault-tolerant quantum computation, exhibiting exponential suppression of bit-flip errors with increasing phase-space separation of the logical states, while incurring only a linear increase in phase-flip errors. Existing implementations rely on engineered two-photon dissipation via nonlinear coupling to a lossy environment, an approach largely confined to superconducting platforms and limited by spurious decay channels and finite dissipation rates. Here, we propose a fundamentally different stabilization paradigm based on repeated interactions with an auxiliary two-level system mediated by a quadratic Hamiltonian, enabling dissipative stabilization without reservoir engineering. Our approach overcomes key limitations of existing schemes and is compatible with a wider class of experimental platforms. Furthermore, it preserves the noise bias and extends to squeezed cat qubits, rendering single-photon loss errors partially correctable.
