ZZ-Free Two-Transmon CZ Gate Mediated by a Fluxonium Coupler
Junyoung An, Helin Zhang, Qi Ding +19
Eliminating residual ZZ interactions in a two-qubit system is essential for reducing coherent errors during quantum operations. In a superconducting circuit platform, coupling two…
Emergent Harmonics in Josephson Tunnel Junctions Due to Series Inductance
Junghyun Kim, Max Hays, Ilan T. Rosen +11
Josephson tunnel junctions are essential elements of superconducting quantum circuits. The operability of these circuits presumes a -periodic sinusoidal potential of a tunnel j…
Improving Transmon Qubit Performance with Fluorine-based Surface Treatments
Michael A. Gingras, Bethany M. Niedzielski, Kevin A. Grossklaus +21
Reducing materials and processing-induced decoherence is critical to the development of utility-scale quantum processors based on superconducting qubits. Here we report on the impa…
Temperature and Magnetic-Field Dependence of Energy Relaxation in a Fluxonium Qubit
Lamia Ateshian, Max Hays, David A. Rower +14
Noise from material defects at device interfaces is known to limit the coherence of superconducting circuits, yet our understanding of the defect origins and noise mechanisms remai…
