Observation of coherent flux-charge interaction in a gate-tunable fluxonium
Brian D. Isakov, Shikhar Singh, Adrian Parra-Rodriguez +7
Interactions that mix conjugate variables, such as the flux through a circuit element and the charge across it, lie outside the reach of the elementary couplings of superconducting…
WSi weak link element with a non-sinusoidal current-phase relation
Sarah Garcia Jones, Trevyn F. Q. Larson, Sai Pavan Chitta +7
Nonlinearity is an essential ingredient for encoding quantum states with non-uniform energy spacing, implementing coherent quantum gates, reading out qubits, amplifying, and mixing…
Revisiting the multi-mode rhombus circuit as a biased-noise qubit
Pablo Aramburu Sanchez, Trevyn F. Q. Larson, Anthony P. McFadden +3
In this work, we revisit the idea of using an interferometer of pairs of Josephson junctions as a protected rhombus qubit. Unlike in the original proposal, where the qubit states a…
Junction-Intrinsic Dissipation in Hybrid Superconductor-Semiconductor Gatemon Qubits
Zhenhai Sun, David Feldstein-Bofill, Ksenia Shagalov +10
Superconducting transmon qubits based on hybrid superconductor-semiconductor Josephson junctions (gatemons) offer gate tunability, but their relaxation times remain well below thos…
Controlled Parity of Cooper Pair Tunneling in a Hybrid Superconducting Qubit
David Feldstein-Bofill, Leo Uhre Jacobsen, Ksenia Shagalov +9
Superconducting quantum circuits derive their nonlinearity from the Josephson energy-phase relation. Besides the fundamental term, this relation can also contain higher Fo…
Localized quasiparticles in a fluxonium with quasi-two-dimensional amorphous kinetic inductors
Trevyn F. Q. Larson, Sarah Garcia Jones, Tamás Kalmár +10
Disordered superconducting materials with high kinetic inductance are an important resource to generate nonlinearity in quantum circuits and create high-impedance environments. In…
