Quasiparticle-induced transitions in a fluxonium qubit
Maksim Litskevich, Kesavan Manivannan, Benjamin Byrd +4
Quasiparticles are a prominent decoherence source in superconducting qubits, but their effects are notoriously difficult to isolate in fluxonium. Unlike the transmon, fluxonium is…

Phonon down-conversion by normal metals for superconducting devices
Guglielmo La Magna, Gianluigi Catelani
Thanks to low dissipation, superconducting devices are promising for a number of applications, such as detectors and implementations of quantum computation. However, their working…
