Quantum simulation elucidates properties of quantum many-body systems by mapping its Hamiltonian to a better-controlled system. Being less stringent than a universal quantum computer, noisy small- and intermediate-scale quantum simulators have successfully demonstrated qualitative behavior such as phase transition, localization and thermalization which are insensitive to imperfections in the engineered Hamiltonian. For more complicated features like quantum information scrambling, higher controllability will be desired to simulate both the forward and the backward time evolutions and to diagnose experimental errors, which has only been achieved for discrete gates. Here, we study the verified scrambling in a 1D spin chain by an analogue superconducting quantum simulator with the signs and values of individual driving and coupling terms fully controllable. We measure the temporal and spatial patterns of out-of-time ordered correlators (OTOC) by engineering opposite Hamiltonians on two subsystems, with the Hamiltonian mismatch and the decoherence extracted quantitatively from the scrambling dynamics. Our work demonstrates the superconducting system as a powerful quantum simulator. |
