Microwave dielectric properties of LiNbO and AlN at millikelvin temperatures and single-photon power
Alessandro Reineri, Francesco Crisa, Akshay Murthy +8
Efficient bidirectional microwave-optical photon conversion is a key capability for scaling superconducting quantum processors into distributed networks. However, achieving the nec…
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~…
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…
Discovery of Nb hydride precipitates in superconducting qubits
Jaeyel Lee, Zuhawn Sung, Akshay A. Murthy +3
We report the first evidence of the formation of niobium hydrides within niobium films on silicon substrates in superconducting qubits fabricated at Rigetti Computing. We combine c…
