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…

Interface-sensitive microwave loss in superconducting tantalum films sputtered on c-plane sapphire
Anthony P. McFadden, Jinsu Oh, Lin Zhou +5
Quantum coherence in superconducting circuits has increased steadily over the last decades as a result of a growing understanding of the various loss mechanisms. Recently, tantalum…

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…
