Distinguishing types of correlated errors in superconducting qubits
Hannah P. Binney, H. Douglas Pinckney, Kate Azar +15
Errors in superconducting qubits that are correlated in time and space can pose problems for quantum error correction codes. Radiation from cosmic and terrestrial sources can incre…
A digitally controlled silicon quantum processing unit
Members of the HRL Quantum Team, Collaborators, : +256
Commercially-relevant quantum computers will require large numbers of high-performing qubits that can be manufactured, integrated, and controlled at scale. Silicon exchange-only (E…
Measuring quasiparticle dynamics for particle impact reconstruction in a superconducting qubit chip
E. Celi, R. Linehan, P. M. Harrington +7
Quasiparticle poisoning following particle impacts poses a significant challenge to the development of fault-tolerant superconducting quantum computers, as a sudden excess of quasi…
Characterization of Radiation-Induced Errors in Superconducting Qubits Protected with Various Gap-Engineering Strategies
H. Douglas Pinckney, Thomas McJunkin, Alan W. Hunt +26
Impacts from high-energy particles cause correlated errors in superconducting qubits by increasing the quasiparticle density in the vicinity of the Josephson junctions (JJs). Such…
Suppressing Counter-Rotating Errors for Fast Single-Qubit Gates with Fluxonium
David A. Rower, Leon Ding, Helin Zhang +12
Qubit decoherence unavoidably degrades the fidelity of quantum logic gates. Accordingly, realizing gates that are as fast as possible is a guiding principle for qubit control, nece…
Abatement of Ionizing Radiation for Superconducting Quantum Devices
B. Loer, P. M. Harrington, B. Archambault +15
Ionizing radiation has been shown to reduce the performance of superconducting quantum circuits. In this report, we evaluate the expected contributions of different sources of ambi…
