Effects of surface treatments on flux tunable transmon qubits

M. Mergenthaler, C. Müller, M. Ganzhorn +9

One of the main limitations in state-of-the art solid-state quantum processors are qubit decoherence and relaxation due to noise in their local environment. For the field to advanc…

Benchmarking the noise sensitivity of different parametric two-qubit gates in a single superconducting quantum computing platform

M. Ganzhorn, G. Salis, D. J. Egger +8

The possibility to utilize different types of two-qubit gates on a single quantum computing platform adds flexibility in the decomposition of quantum algorithms. A larger hardware-…

Time-resolved tomography of a driven adiabatic quantum simulation

Gian Salis, Nikolaj Moll, Marco Roth +2

A typical goal of a quantum simulation is to find the energy levels and eigenstates of a given Hamiltonian. This can be realized by adiabatically varying the system control paramet…
