A $\boldsymbol{2d \times d \times d}$ Spacetime Volume Implementation of a Logical S Gate in the Surface Code
A new nearest-neighbor twist-defect braiding protocol implements the logical S gate in the surface code at 2d × d × d spacetime volume with logical error rates comparable to prior methods for d ≥ 5 near p = 10^{-3}.
