Digital Etching of Single-Crystalline Silicon Fin Barriers Down to Sub-10 nm
Yu Wu, Teun A. J. van Schijndel, Anthony P. McFadden +3
This work presents a fabrication process to realize sub-10 nm-thick, high-aspect-ratio Si fins using high-resistivity float-zone single-crystal Si wafers. Following anisotropic wet…
Revisiting the multi-mode rhombus circuit as a biased-noise qubit
Pablo Aramburu Sanchez, Trevyn F. Q. Larson, Anthony P. McFadden +3
In this work, we revisit the idea of using an interferometer of pairs of Josephson junctions as a protected rhombus qubit. Unlike in the original proposal, where the qubit states a…
Magnetic flux distribution, quasiparticle spectroscopy, and quality factors in Nb films for superconducting qubits

Signatures of a Spin-Active Interface and Locally Enhanced Zeeman field in a Superconductor-Chiral Material Heterostructure
Cliff Chen, Jason Tran, Anthony McFadden +10
A localized Zeeman field, intensified at heterostructure interfaces, could play a crucial role in a broad area including spintronics and unconventional superconductors. Conventiona…
Fabrication and characterization of low-loss Al/Si/Al parallel plate capacitors for superconducting quantum information applications
Anthony McFadden, Aranya Goswami, Tongyu Zhao +7
Increasing the density of superconducting circuits requires compact components, however, superconductor-based capacitors typically perform worse as dimensions are reduced due to lo…
Cryogenic growth of tantalum thin films for low-loss superconducting circuits
Teun A. J. van Schijndel, Anthony P. McFadden, Aaron N. Engel +5
Motivated by recent advancements highlighting Ta as a promising material in low-loss superconducting circuits and showing long coherence times in superconducting qubits, we have ex…
Towards merged-element transmons using silicon fins: the FinMET
Aranya Goswami, Anthony P. McFadden, Tongyu Zhao +7
A merged-element transmon (MET) device, based on silicon (Si) fins, is proposed and the first steps to form such a "FinMET" are demonstrated. This new application of fin technology…
Tuning spin orbit interaction in high quality gate-defined InAs one-dimensional channels
J. Shabani, Younghyun Kim, A. P. McFadden +3
Spin-orbit coupling in solids describes an interaction between an electron's spin, an internal quantum-mechanical degree of freedom, with its linear momentum, an external property.…
