- Superconducting control for scaled quantum systems, and strongly-coupled two-level defects
- Time: 10:00 am - 6:00 pm
- Place: 5310 Chamberlin Hall
- Speaker: Brad Christensen, Northrop Grumman
- Abstract: Northrop Grumman has developed Reciprocal Quantum Logic (RQL), an extremely energy efficient superconducting logic family. We will describe how we use it to perform microwave-free universal control of superconducting dual-rail qubits. We will then discuss how we characterize and mitigate a source of infidelity: strongly-coupled two-level systems located in and near the junction.
- Host: Robert McDermott
