Probing the Penetration Depth of Topological Surface States by Magnetic Impurity Scattering in V-doped SbTe
Yidi Wang, Zeyu Ma, Pengcheng Chen +11
Topological insulators host Dirac surface states (SS) protected by time-reversal symmetry. Inter-surface hybridization can gap the SS and give rise to the quantum spin Hall effect…
Decoherence of a tunable capacitively shunted flux qubit
R. Trappen, X. Dai, M. A. Yurtalan +19
Quantum annealing is a method to solve optimization problems that leverages quantum tunneling in a coupled qubit system. We present a detailed study of the coherence of a tunable c…
Improving Transmon Qubit Performance with Fluorine-based Surface Treatments
Michael A. Gingras, Bethany M. Niedzielski, Kevin A. Grossklaus +21
Reducing materials and processing-induced decoherence is critical to the development of utility-scale quantum processors based on superconducting qubits. Here we report on the impa…
Dissipative Landau-Zener tunneling in the crossover regime from weak to strong environment coupling
X. Dai, R. Trappen, H. Chen +22
Landau-Zener tunneling, which describes the transition in a two-level system during a sweep through an anti-crossing, is a model applicable to a wide range of physical phenomena. R…
