SUMMARY:Quantum engineering for superconducting quantum computers\, Ph
 ysics Department Colloquium\, Prof. Yasunobu Nakamura \, University of
  Tokyo
DESCRIPTION:The motivation for observing quantum superposition in macr
 oscopic systems guided us to the research of superconducting quantum c
 ircuits and the realization of superconducting qubits. The qubit itsel
 f is a many-body system of interacting electrons designed and fabricat
 ed in the form of an electrical circuit\, where quantized energy level
 s of a collective excitation mode are used as the bases for storing an
 d manipulating quantum information. With the strong nonlinearity due t
 o the Josephson effect and the large dipole moments that allow fast co
 ntrol and readout of the quantum states\, superconducting qubits compr
 ise versatile platforms for quantum information processing. Now\, havi
 ng accumulated knowledge and technology\, we are facing new challenges
  in constructing an artificial quantum system with a macroscopic numbe
 r of qubits and controlling them precisely. We will discuss our approa
 ch at RIKEN.
