Measurement-induced state transitions in multi-qubit transmon processors

Baptiste Hoyau, Alexander McDonald, Boris M. Varbanov +2

Dispersive readout of the transmon qubit in circuit QED is known to lose its quantum non-demolition character at small to moderate measurement drive amplitudes. This phenomenon is…

Probing excited-state dynamics of transmon ionization

Zihao Wang, Benjamin D'Anjou, Philippe Gigon +2

The fidelity and quantum nondemolition character of the dispersive readout in circuit QED are limited by unwanted transitions to highly excited states at specific photon numbers in…

Offset Charge Dependence of Measurement-Induced Transitions in Transmons

Mathieu Féchant, Marie Frédérique Dumas, Denis Bénâtre +9

A key challenge in achieving scalable fault tolerance in superconducting quantum processors is readout fidelity, which lags behind one- and two-qubit gate fidelity. A major limitat…

Robustness of longitudinal transmon readout to ionization

Alex A. Chapple, Alexander McDonald, Manuel H. Muñoz-Arias +1

Multi-photon processes deteriorate the quantum non-demolition (QND) character of the dispersive readout in circuit QED, causing readout to lag behind single and two-qubit gates, in…

Exceeding the Parametric Drive Strength Threshold in Nonlinear Circuits

Mingkang Xia, Cristóbal Lledó, Matthew Capocci +7

Superconducting quantum circuits rely on strong drives to implement fast gates, high-fidelity readout, and state stabilization. However, these drives can induce uncontrolled excita…

High-fidelity gates in a transmon using bath engineering for passive leakage reset

Ted Thorbeck, Alexander McDonald, O. Lanes +6

Leakage, the occupation of any state not used in the computation, is one of the of the most devastating errors in quantum error correction. Transmons, the most common superconducti…
