Evidence for a low-gap component in compressively stressed niobium thin films
J. T. Paustian, Maciej Olszewski, Kiichi Okubo +6
We investigate the microwave response of sputtered Nb films as a function of biaxial film stress. Although transport measurements show nearly identical superconducting transition t…
Fabrication-free assessment of microwave losses in germanium-based dielectrics and superconductors
Haoran Lu, Kushagra Aggarwal, Xiangqin Wang +10
We present a flip-chip-based sensing scheme to measure effective microwave losses associated with target materials for quantum technologies, without requiring any device fabricatio…
NICER detection of a new candidate cyclotron line in the bursting X-ray pulsar GRO J1744-28
Qi Liu, Lingda Kong, Long Ji +15
We report the detection of cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSFs) in the spectrum of the unique bursting pulsar GRO J1744-28, observed during its recent outburst in 2021 wi…
Krypton-sputtered tantalum films for scalable high-performance quantum devices
Maciej W. Olszewski, Lingda Kong, Simon Reinhardt +9
Superconducting qubits based on tantalum (Ta) thin films have demonstrated the highest-performing microwave resonators and qubits. This makes Ta an attractive material for supercon…
