Demonstrating magnetic field robustness and reducing temporal T1 noise in transmon qubits through magnetic field engineering
Bektur Abdisatarov, Tanay Roy, Daniel Bafia +10
The coherence of superconducting transmon qubits is often disrupted by fluctuations in the energy relaxation time (T1), limiting their performance for quantum computing. While back…
Ultracoherent superconducting cavity-based multiqudit platform with error-resilient control
Taeyoon Kim, Tanay Roy, Xinyuan You +26
Realizing the promise of quantum computing requires simultaneously increasing Hilbert-space size and coherence times. While qubit-based architectures have long been the dominant pa…
Quantifying Trapped Magnetic Vortex Losses in Niobium Resonators at mK Temperatures
D. Bafia, B. Abdisatarov, R. Pilipenko +4
Trapped magnetic vortices in niobium introduce microwave losses that degrade the performance of superconducting resonators. While such losses have been extensively studied above 1~…
An Improved Bound on Nonlinear Quantum Mechanics using a Cryogenic Radio Frequency Experiment
Oleksandr Melnychuk, Bianca Giaccone, Nicholas Bornman +9
There are strong arguments that quantum mechanics may be nonlinear in its dynamics. A discovery of nonlinearity would hint at a novel understanding of the interplay between gravity…
Disentangling the Impact of Quasiparticles and Two-Level Systems on the Statistics of Superconducting Qubit Lifetime
Shaojiang Zhu, Xinyuan You, Ugur Alyanak +8
Temporal fluctuations in the superconducting qubit lifetime, , bring up additional challenges in building a fault-tolerant quantum computer. While the exact mechanisms remain…
Evaluating radiation impact on transmon qubits in above and underground facilities
Francesco De Dominicis, Tanay Roy, Ambra Mariani +20
Superconducting qubits can be sensitive to abrupt energy deposits caused by cosmic rays and ambient radioactivity. While previous studies have explored correlated effects in time a…
Phase-controlled improvement of photon lifetime in coupled superconducting cavities
Changqing Wang, Oleksandr S Melnychuk, Crispin Contreras-Martinez +9
High-quality cavities are crucial for various fundamental physical studies and applications. Here we find that by coupling two cavities directly or via a phase-tunable coupling cha…
Systematic Improvements in Transmon Qubit Coherence Enabled by Niobium Surface Encapsulation
Mustafa Bal, Akshay A. Murthy, Shaojiang Zhu +37
We present a novel transmon qubit fabrication technique that yields systematic improvements in T relaxation times. We fabricate devices using an encapsulation strategy that inv…
